Materials of the present article are concerned with research related to creation of new composites and studying their properties. In the course of the study, a polymer-based composite was created using neoprene; it was reinforced with multiderectional glass fiber, and polar solvent based on ethyl acetate and carbon tetrachloride was chosen as the most suitable solvent. Moreover, influence of fiber orientation on mechanical behavior of composites depending on the solvent type and amount was studied too.
