BS EN ISO 17138:2022 Fine ceramics (advanced ceramics, advanced technical ceramics). Mechanical properties of ceramic composites at room temperature. Determination of flexural strength
1 Scope
This International Standard describes a method for the determination of the flexural strength of ceramic matrix composite materials with continuous fibre reinforcement, under
three-point or four-point bend at room temperature. This method applies to all ceramic
matrix composites with a continuous fibre reinforcement, unidirectional (1D), bidirectional
(2D), and tridirectional xD with (2 < x ≤ 3) as defined in CEN/TR 13233, loaded along one principal axis of reinforcement.
NOTE The method is not intended to be used to obtain absolute values of strength for design
purposes.
