BS EN 1007-6:2007 Advanced technical ceramic - Ceramic composites - Methods of test for reinforcements - Part 6: Determination of tensile properties of filaments at high temperature
This European Standard specifies the conditions for measurement of tensile properties a of single filament of
ceramic fibres at high temperatures in air or inert atmosphere (vacuum or controlled atmosphere). The method
applies to continuous ceramic filaments taken from tows, yarns, staple fibre, braids and knitting, that have strain to
fracture less than or equal to 5 % and show linear elastic behaviour to fracture.
The method does not apply to testing for homogeneity of strength properties of fibres, nor does it assess the effects
of volume under stress. Statistical aspects of fibre failure are not included.
Two methods are proposed depending on the temperature of the filament end:
Hot end method: this method allows determination of tensile strength, of Young's modulus and of the stress
strain curve.
NOTE 1 Current experience with this technique is limited to 1 300 °C, because of the application temperature of ceramic
glue.
Cold end method.
NOTE 2 This method is limited to 1 700 °C in air and 2 000 °C in inert atmosphere because of the limits of furnaces.
