Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method addresses the determination of theinterlaminar shear strength of CFCCs at e

19、levated temperatures.The interlaminar shear strength of CFCCs, as determined bythis test method, is measured by loading in uniaxial compres-sion a double-notched test specimen of uniform width. Failureof the test specimen occurs by interlaminar shear between twocentrally located notches machined hal

The procedures in this testmethod are similar to those in Test Method C1292 for thedetermination of the interlaminar shear str

21、ength of CFCCs atambient temperature, except that the considerations for con-ducting the test at elevated temperatures are addressed in thistest method.5. Significance and Use5.1 Continuous fiber-reinforced ceramic composites arecandidate materials for structural applications requiring highdegrees o

22、f wear, erosion, corrosion resistance, and damagetolerance at high temperatures.5.2 The 1D and 2D CFCCs are highly anisotropic and theirtransthickness tensile and interlaminar shear strength are lowerthan their in-plane tensile and in-plane shear strength, respec-tively.5.3 Shear tests provide infor

23、mation on the strength anddeformation of materials under shear stresses.5.4 This test method may be used for material development,material comparison, quality assurance, characterization, anddesign data generation.5.5 For quality control purposes, results derived from stan-dardized shear test specim

24、ens may be considered indicative ofthe response of the material from which they were taken forgiven primary processing conditions and post-processing heattreatments.6. Interferences6.1 Test environment (vacuum, inert gas, ambient air, and soforth), including moisture content (for example, relativehu

25、midity), may have an influence on the measured interlaminarshear strength. In particular, the behavior of materials suscep-tible to slow crack growth will be strongly influenced by testenvironment and testing rate. Testing to evaluate the maximumstrength potential of a material shall be conducted in

26、 inertenvironments or at sufficiently rapid testing rates, or both, so asto minimize slow crack growth effects. Conversely, testing canbe conducted in environments and testing modes and ratesrepresentative of service conditions to evaluate material per-formance under those conditions. When testing i

27、s conducted inuncontrolled ambient air with the objective of evaluatingmaximum strength potential, relative humidity and temperaturemust be monitored and reported. Testing at humidity levels65 % RH is not recommended and any deviations from thisrecommendation must be reported.6.2 Preparation of test

28、 specimens can introduce fabricationflaws which may have pronounced effects on the mechanicalproperties and behavior (for example, shape and level of theresulting force-displacement curve and shear strength). Ma-chining damage introduced during test specimen preparationcan be either a random interfe

29、ring factor in the determinationof shear strength of pristine material, or an inherent part of thestrength characteristics to be measured. Universal or standard-ized test methods of surface preparation do not exist. Finalmachining steps may, or may not, negate machining damageintroduced during the i

30、nitial machining. Thus, test specimenfabrication history may play an important role in the measuredstrength distributions and shall be reported.FIG. 1 Schematic of Uniaxial Compression of Double-NotchedTest Specimen for the Determination of Interlaminar ShearStrength of CFCCsC1425 1926.3 Bending in

31、uniaxially loaded shear tests can cause orpromote nonuniform stress distributions that may alter thedesired state of stress during the test. For example, nonuniformloading will occur if the loading surfaces of the test specimenare not flat and parallel.6.4 Fractures that initiate outside the gage se

32、ction of a testspecimen may be due to factors such as localized stressconcentrations, extraneous stresses introduced by improperloading configurations, or strength-limiting features in themicrostructure of the test specimen. Such non-gage sectionfractures will normally constitute invalid tests.6.5 F

33、or the evaluation of the interlaminar shear strength bythe uniaxial compression of a double-notched test specimen,the distance between the notches has an effect on the maximumforce and therefore on the interlaminar shear strength.3,4,5Ithas been found that the stress distribution in the gage section

34、 ofthe test specimen is independent of the distance between thenotches when the notches are far apart. However, when thedistance between the notches is such that the stress fieldsaround the notches interact, the measured interlaminar shearstrength increases. Because of the complexity of the stress f

35、ieldaround each notch and its dependence on the properties andhomogeneity of the material, conduct a series of tests on testspecimens with different spacing between the notches todetermine the effect of notch separation on the measuredinterlaminar shear strength.6.6 For the evaluation of the interla

36、minar shear strength bythe uniaxial compression of a double-notched test specimen,excessive clamping forces will reduce the stress concentrationaround the notches and, therefore, artificially increase themeasured interlaminar shear strength. Excessive clampingmight occur if interference between the

37、test fixture and the testspecimen results from mismatch in their thermal expansion.Paragraph 7.6 provides guidance to prevent this problem.6.7 The interlaminar shear strength of 1D and 2D CFCCs iscontrolled either by the matrix-rich interlaminar regions or bythe weakest of the fiber-matrix interface

38、s. Whetherinterlaminar-shear failure initiates at the matrix-rich interlami-nar region or at the weakest of the fiber/matrix interfacesdepends on the location of the root of the notch, or where theinterlaminar shear stress is largest, or with respect to theinterlaminar microstructural features, or c

The forces used in determiningshear strength shall be accurate within 61 % at any forcewithin the selected force range of the testing machine asdefined in Practices E4.7.2 Heating Appara

40、tusThe apparatus for, and method of,heating the test specimens shall provide the temperaturecontrol necessary to satisfy the requirement of 10.2.7.2.1 Heating can be radiative by indirect electrical resis-tance (heating elements), indirect induction through asusceptor, or radiant lamp with the test

41、specimen in ambient airat atmospheric pressure unless other environments are specifi-cally applied and reported. Note that conductive or directresistance heating is not recommended for heating CFCCs dueto possible differences of the electrical resistance of theconstituent materials which may produce

42、 nonuniform heatingof the test specimen.7.3 Temperature-Measuring ApparatusThe method oftemperature measurement shall be sufficiently sensitive andreliable to ensure that the temperature of the test specimen iswithin the limits specified in 10.2.7.3.1 Primary temperature measurement shall be made wi

43、ththermocouples in conjunction with potentiometers,millivoltmeters, or electronic temperature controllers or read-out units, or combinations thereof. Such measurements aresubject to two types of error. Thermocouple calibration andinstrument measuring errors initially produce uncertainty as tothe exa

44、ct temperature. Secondly, both thermocouples andmeasuring instruments may be subject to variations over time.Common errors encountered in the use of thermocouples tomeasure temperatures include: calibration error, drift in cali-bration due to contamination or deterioration with use, lead-wire error,

45、 error arising from method of attachment to the testspecimen, direct radiation of heat to the bead, heat conductionalong thermocouple wires, and so forth.7.3.2 Temperature measurements shall be made with ther-mocouples of known calibration. Representative thermo-couples shall be calibrated from each

46、 lot of wires used formaking noble-metal (for example, platinum or rhodium) ther-mocouples. Except for relatively low temperatures of exposure,noble-metal thermocouples are eventually subject to error uponreuse. Oxidized noble-metal thermocouples shall not be reusedwithout clipping back to remove wi

47、re exposed to the hot zone,re-welding, and annealing. Any reuse of noble-metal thermo-couples after relatively low-temperature use without this pre-caution shall be accompanied by re-calibration data demon-strating that calibration was not unduly affected by theconditions of exposure.7.3.3 Measureme

48、nt of the drift in calibration of thermo-couples during use is difficult. When drift is a problem duringtests, a method shall be devised to check the readings of thethermocouples monitoring the test specimen temperature dur-ing the test. For reliable calibration of thermocouples after use,the temper

49、ature gradient of the test furnace must be reproducedduring the re-calibration.7.3.4 Temperature measuring, controlling, and recordinginstruments shall be calibrated against a secondary standard,such as precision potentiometer, optical pyrometer, or black-body thyristor. Lead-wire error shall be checked with the leadwires in place as they normally are used. For thermocouple3Whitney, J.
