This paper describes densely‐packed materials that change their stiffness under exposure to ionizing radiation. The prepreg materials additionally curable under radiation exposure can be used for fabrication of large‐size articles (e.g., supporting structures of large space antennas on space vehicles and aircraft, protective screens of spacecraft and protective structures on the Moon surface) transformed in a space environment (UV radiation, vacuum) and acquiring stiffness (shape stability) due to space factors. The materials additionally cured under radiation exposure can be obtained using specially developed complex binders with components of different sensitivity to ionizing radiation and curable via different mechanisms.
