The photochemical behaviour of a nanofilled epoxy resin has been studied. It has been shown that the filler content increases at the surface with irradiation time. Qualitative stiffness and adhesion measurements compare the surface properties of the filled and unfilled samples upon ageing. Depth profiling has been achieved by AFM nanoindentation and micro-FTIR. These two techniques allowed comparing stiffness and photooxidation of the aged samples. Both techniques showed an influence of nanofillers on thickness profiles. The relationship between the oxidation process and its consequences on the physical properties is explained taking into account oxygen permeability and light diffusion. Additionally, it has been shown that, whatever the content (5–10 wt%), the nature (silica or different organo-modified montmorillonites) or the shape of the filler (spherical or lamellar), the photoproducts were formed in comparable proportions and at similar rates as in the pristine matrix.
