The analysis of the ultraviolet induced transformation of the thermal decomposition spectra of the monomer of the submicrometer layers of polymethylmethacrylate and its composite with fullerene C60 for different fullerene concentrations and irradiation doses has been carried out. Formation of the new decomposition stages in the spectra has been interpreted by the binding between C60 and side ester groups of polymethylmethacrylate. Keywords: polymethylmethacrylate, fullerene, ultraviolet irradiation, thermal decomposition, mass-spectrometry.
