Abstract
We present a fully discrete scheme for the numerical approximation of a moving-boundary problem describing diffusants penetration into rubber. Our scheme utilizes the Galerkin finite element method for the space discretization combined with the backward Euler method for the time discretization. Besides dealing with the existence and uniqueness of solution to the fully discrete problem, we derive a \textit{a priori} error estimate for the mass concentration of the diffusants, and respectively, for the position of the moving boundary. Numerical illustrations verify the obtained theoretical order of convergence in physical parameter regimes.
