DIN EN 843-6:2009 Advanced technical ceramics - Mechanical properties of monolithic ceramics at room temperature - Part 6: Guidance for fractographic investigation; English version of DIN EN 843-6:2009-12
This Part of EN 843 contains guidelines to be adopted when evaluating the appearance of the fracture
surface of an advanced technical ceramic. The purpose in undertaking this procedure can be various, for
example, for material development or quality assessment, to identify normal or abnormal causes of failure,
or as a design aid.
NOTE Not all advanced technical ceramics are amenable to fractography, in particular, coarse-grained
ceramics can show such rough surfaces that identifying the fracture origin may be impossible. Similarly, porous
materials, especially those of a granular nature, tend not to fracture in a continuous manner, making analysis
difficult.
