Advanced composite materials have become critical enablers in the aerospace and automotive sectors, offering superior strength-to-weight ratios, corrosion resistance, and design flexibility. This paper reviews the state-of-the-art developments in composite technologies, focusing on their structural, thermal, and mechanical performance characteristics. Key advancements in fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs), ceramic matrix composites (CMCs), and metal matrix composites (MMCs) are discussed, along with manufacturing innovations such as automated fiber placement, additive manufacturing, and resin transfer molding. The study further explores application case studies, sustainability considerations, and future trends shaping the use of composites in these high-performance sectors
