Composite materials are engineering materials consist of two or more separate materials that are highly different in their mechanical, chemical and physical properties. Distinctive properties of composite materials are a consequence of the individual properties of its components, the volume fraction of each of them, as well as the way each component of the composite is arranged. Composite materials are designed according to the function required of them, so that this design meets mechanical, structural, chemical, engineering and even aesthetic requirements in some cases. Composite materials have many applications, such as the manufacture of car bodies, aircraft, construction (buildings and bridges), marine industries such as ships and boats, and in the medical field (ligaments, industrial cartilages and dentistry). The main purpose of this study is to introduce composite materials and discuss their current and future uses Keywords composites, metals, ceramics, carbon and glass fibers
