The use of polymer composite has been implemented since 3400 B.C, the very first known composite's application is attributed to the Mesopotamians. These ancient people fabricated plywood with glued wood strips placed at various distinct angles and in the late 1930's glass fiber thin strands have been developed. Glass fibre polymer composites have a wide scope in various engineering structures submarines, spacecraft, airplanes, automobiles, sports, and many more, over traditional materials because of their superior properties including lightweight, high fracture toughness, corrosion, fatigue, wear & fire resistance, high strength to weight ratio, high modulus and low coefficient of expansion. Various technologies have been developed so far to create different types of polymer composites in accordance with their properties and applications. Glass fiber possesses better properties as great strength, better flexibility, stiffness, and chemical corrosion resistance. Glass fibers are generally in the form of cut-up strand, fabrics and mats. Every kind of glass fibers has different properties and has various applications as in polymer composites. The aim of this review paper is to provide updated technological insights regarding the evolution of composite, classification of gass fibre polymer composites, development methodology in contrast with various applications, advantages and limitations and their behavioral properties.
