This article provides an overview of studies on the study of uneven aging of polymer composite materials under the influence of ultraviolet (UV) radiation. In general, the current state of research indicates that exposure to UV radiation can have a significant effect on the properties of glass-basalt composites based on epoxy resin, including changes in surface chemistry, mechanical properties, and appearance. However, further research is needed to fully understand the underlying mechanisms responsible for these effects and develop effective strategies to reduce them. The design and manufacture of a UV camera for testing glass and basalt plastics is an important aspect of studying the effects of UV radiation on these materials.
