Popis: In this paper with the application of hand lay - up and machine impregnation technology, prepregs with suitable characteristics were produced and additionally processed into composite plates by using compression molding technology. Woven structure from E -glass fibers was used as a reinforcing component in the composite materials. For all manufactured composite plates, an analysis of the content of the constituent’s components and the percentage of voids (%) was made. Determining the content of the constituent’s components is significant from the aspect of modeling the properties (mechanical, physical, thermal or electrical) of the composite structure which are affected by the reinforcing component or matrix. The percentage of the voids of a composite material can significantly affect some of its mechanical properties. High void contents usually mean less fatigue resistance, greater susceptibility to moisture penetration and atmospheric influences and increased variation in strength. Knowing the content of the void in the composite material is desirable since it is a significant indicator of the quality of the composite.
