Abstract  Silk fibroin (SF) and chitosan (CS) have excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability, however the disadvantages of pure SF and CS scaffold limit their application in tissue engineering. SF/CS composites that can overcome the shortcoming of pure SF and CS scaffold have excellent mechanical properties, plasticity, tunable porosity and pore size, and component complementary advantages. SF/CS composites (micro/nano particles, membranes, nanofibers, hydrogels and 3D porous scaffolds) have been used in bone, cartilage, skin, nerve, fat, heart and cornea tissue engineering and injury repair. At present, the research on SF/CS composites at home and abroad is still in its infancy. The characteristics, the preparation methods and application of SF/CS composites in tissue engineering were briefly introduced.
