Abstract The review article of this paper represents the reduced availability of natural resources, the increasing costs of production, and the apparent limit to our ability to fabricate high strength-to-weight metallic components necessitated the development of new materials to meet the demands of aerospace technology. These materials are called advanced composite materials and will be used to replace some of the metals currently used in aircraft construction. Advanced composites are materials consisting of a combination of high-strength stiff fibers embedded in a common matrix (binder) material, generally laminated with plies arranged in various directions to give the structure strength and stiffness. The much stiffer fibers of boron, graphite, and Kevlar have given composite materials structural properties superior in strength to the metal alloys that they have replaced Top Keywords Hybrid Composites, Hybridization, Tibological Properties.
