Streszczenie: At the present moment it is widely known, that microorganisms are able to grow on the materials of different chemical structure (plastics, metals, rubbers, glasses, woods et cetera), causing their bio- damage and reducing their lifetime. The long-time experience of orbital station MIR and International Space Station exploitation shows the appearance of polymers’ bio-damage and metals’ bio-corrosion processes, followed by the failures in operation of various equipment, malfunctioning of life-support systems. There was conducted investigation on the selection and experimental substantiation of means and methods of protection of the materials, used in space objects, against microbial contamination and bio-damages. The methods of materials’ certification on microbial resistance were developed. In the process of these activities new methodical and technological procedures of creation of materials with preset bio-resistant properties were used. Application of the achieved results in space industry will secure not only the prolongation of timeframes of exploitation of the construction materials and equipment, but also have a positive effect on the sanitary-hygienic and ecological situation.
