The one-stage method for producing composites involves the formation of filler structures during the burning of low-temperature plasma in the bulk of an aqueous polymer solution. Electrode materials were used as precursors. Regardless of the production method, 2D hexagonal structures are formed and embedded in the polymer matrix. This is evidenced by IR spectroscopy data showing shifts in the main characteristic bands and the appearance of new ones. It has been established that layered fillers can be both plasticizers and reinforcing agents. The influence of the viscosity of the polymer matrix on the mechanical characteristics of the composites has been revealed. The introduction of fillers changes the surface roughness, leading to an increase in hydrophobicity of the composites.
