    ENG: This study analyzes the technology for creating polymer composite materials reinforced with glass fiber. Particular attention is given to their applications in the aerospace industry, where stringent requirements for strength, corrosion resistance, and specific strength render these materials indispensable. The main components of composite materials and their properties are examined. Phenol-formaldehyde resins, widely utilized as a matrix for fiberglass plastics in rocket and space engineering, are studied in detail. The thermomechanical resistance of composites, a critical factor determining their performance under extreme conditions, is highlighted. A significant part of the study focuses on the production and curing processes of composite materials. Various curing methods are analyzed, with a focus on the effectiveness of infrared radiation. The findings establish that infrared heating significantly enhances the physical and mechanical properties of composites while reducing production time.
