Abstract EN
The bond strength between fibers and matrix is an essential property of all composite materials and it must be measured accurately to be able to correlate it with the composite behavior.
There are several factors affecting its measurement.
This paper discusses the polishing and load application aspects of the indentation test technique for fiber-matrix bond strength determination in polymer and ceramic matrix composites.
Different polishing procedures are suggested for polymer and ceramic surfaces for obtaining a smooth surface which is a must for the test results to be reliable.
The geometry of the fibers tested was also found to affect the analysis results.
For best results, fibers with similar size and which are similarly surrounded by other fibers should be tested.
Care should be taken during load application on a fiber for the loading probe not to approach the fiber circumference.
The force should be applied in as small increments as possible, however starting from a high enough level to prevent fiber breakage due to surface damage from several loading steps.
