**3. Classification of composite cutting tool**

Composite is the combination of two main constitutions namely matrix and reinforcement with the specific end goal to enhance the properties [12]. In recent years, cutting tool industry move from metal cutting tool to composite cutting tool. The function of the matrix is to hold the reinforcement particles in position by surrounding and supporting them. The reinforcements generally have an impact on mechanical and physical properties or any other tailored property enhanced from the matrix material [13]. The combination of a wide variety of reinforcement materials for specific effect on matrix allows the researchers to choose an optimum combination of materials to make a product and also classification of composite material as shown in **Figure 3**.
