The stress-strain state of a composite tensile rod in creep under conditions of an aggressive environment is investigated. The creep of each part of the rod is described by a power-type model with different parameters. The effect of the aggressive environment is determined by the diffusive penetration of its elements into the material of the rod. To solve the diffusion equation, an approximate method based on introduction of the diffusion front is used. The distribution of stresses in time is analyzed provided the aggressive environment penetrates into different parts of the rod with different diffusion coefficients. Conditions at which the values of stresses in parts of the rod come closer or diverge in time, are obtained. The characteristic parameters of the diffusion and creep processes are determined. The graphs of time-dependent stresses are constructed for different parts of the rod with account of the conditions found.
