This review describes the recent advancedments in polymer and polymer composites, specifically natural fibre polymer composites (NFPC), a material with significant mechanical, colloidal and barrier proper, biodegradability, renewable and low density character. The above properties make NFPC promising for various advanced applications in different fields such as automotive part, papermaking, flexible optoelectronic, scaffolds, optical device, pharmaceutical products, substitutes/ medical biomaterials, spacecraft, aircraft and tissue repair (wound dressing). In this short review, the application of polymer and polymer composites is summarized, covering definition, processing method and type of polymer components.
