3D printing has brought significant changes in many industries. It helps to create products with impressive strength and versatility. This paper aims to investigate and evaluate the different types of materials used in 3D printing, evaluating the advantages, disadvantages, and applications of different materials. It majorly focuses on thermoplastic, metal-based materials, and hybrid and composite materials. This paper also provides the current and future scenarios of 3D printing. This review covers all valuable insights into a large spectrum of different types of materials used in 3D printing and provides a small glance at these transforming industries. As the study expands the development of innovative materials and printing techniques will surely come to the surface and will expand the possibilities of 3D printing applications in the future.
