Ceramics and glasses; one of the common oxide ceramics is alumina; Al2O3. Ceramics have superior chemical and temperature-resistant properties compared with metals, however, they are brittle.

Polymers (or plastics); polymers are long-chain molecules composed of many mers bonded together. The most common commercial polymer is polyethylene where n can range from 100 to 1000. Many important polymers are simply compounds of H and C.

Composites; this set of materials is made up of some combinations of individual materials from the previous categories. An example is fibreglass. The high strength of the small-diameter glass fibres is combined with the ductility of the polymer matrix to produce a strong material capable of withstanding the normal loading required of a structural material.
Different classes of composites may include:
Polymer-matrix composites Metal-matrix composites Ceramic-matrix composites
