The aim of the article is to study the influence of the water content in the epoxy resin on the mechanical properties of the result laminate. The mechanism of resin contamination by air humidity is considered. The NIR spectrometry method was chosen to monitor the water content in the resin. The mechanical strength parameters of the laminate created from clean and water-contaminated resin were determined on the base of simulation and real tensile tests.
