Three-dimensional textile composites are widely used in the aerospace field due to their excellent mechanical properties，strong designability and resistance to extreme environments.In order to deeply understand the structural system and mechanical behavior of three-dimensional textile composites applied in high temperature environments， this paper starts from the three-dimensional textile structurec and reviews the structural types of three-dimensional textile composites and their applications in the aerospace field.The molding process and structural characteristics of three-dimensional textile composites are summarized.The research progress of thermo-mechanical properties of three-dimensional textile composites is analyzed. Future research focus and key issues to be solved are proposed in order to provide a basis for the design，manufacturing and application of high temperature resistance/load bearing of a new generation of three-dimensional textile composites.
