Abstract
An original method enabling the in-situ and real time monitoring of a polym er structure evolution using an inserted piezoelectric sensor is presented. The validation of this technique is done at constant temperature by compar ison to the results obtained on several polymers by classical ultrasonic me thods in practically the same conditions. The complete validation is achiev ed by monitoring the complex cure of a polymer matrix fibre reinforced comp osite PMR-15 under sever conditions of temperature.
