This work deals with the ageing of a carbon epoxy composite material for aeronautic and supersonic applications. One of the main parameters which governs the durability of this kind of materials is the matrix oxidation, which is limited to surface layers. The long-term behaviour of organic matrix composites includes combined effects of ageing: matrix oxidation occurring at high temperature and matrix cracking due to thermo-mechanical ply stresses induced by differential expansion between matrix and fibers or between the various plies. For some years ENSAM has developed for isothermal conditions a kinetic model of radical chain oxidation coupled with the equation of oxygen diffusion. This model is based on a "close-loop" oxidation mechanistic scheme and gives access to the concentration profile of oxidation products in the sample thickness. In this work we expressed the temperature by a Fourier series and we simulate the oxidative behaviour of samples exposed to the following thermal cycles: -50°C/+180°C, -50°C/+150°C and +50°C/+180°C. The weight loss of the oxidised samples was chosen as indicator of oxidation. Numerical results are compared to experimental ones to check the validity of the model. Good agreement between experimental and numerical results is obtained.
