This article is an introduction to adhesive bonding process. The joints in structures are challenged with some limitations such as material size, different types of materials joining together, accessibility and inspection, maintenance, and transportation. Therefore, a proper selection and design of composite bonding is essential. Polymer composites of The structure of the review includes: an overview on various aspects of adhesive bonding and fundamental concepts of adhesion phenomena and then general methods for the preparation of composites surfaces including mechanical and physical preparations. The structural adhesives for bonding of polymer composites and their properties under different conditions are discussed. Finally, the mechanical properties of adhesive joints and effective parameters on the strength of these types of joints are analyzed.
