Advanced technical ceramics - Mechanical properties of ceramic composites at high temperature in air at atmospheric pressure - Determination of tensile properties

Scope

This document specifies the conditions for determination of tensile properties of ceramic matrix composite materials with continuous fibre reinforcement for temperatures up to 1 700 °C in air at atmospheric pressure.
This document applies to all ceramic matrix composites with a continuous fibre reinforcement, unidirectional (1D), bi directional (2D), and tri-directional (xD, with 2 < x = 3), loaded along one principal axis of reinforcement.
NOTE 1 In most cases, ceramic matrix composites to be used at high temperature in air are coated with an anti-oxidation coating.
NOTE 2 The purpose of this document is to determine the tensile properties of a material when it is placed under an oxidizing environment but not to measure material oxidation.
