Abstract

Oxidation of fiber/matrix interfaces can degrade the strength and toughness of ceramic composites containing non‐oxide constituents. Oxidation can occur when the fiber ends are exposed or in the presence of cracks. Theoretical considerations indicate that, contrary to popular belief, oxide fiber coatings should be worse than non‐oxide fiber coatings for protection against oxidation. Furthermore, oxidation of fiber/matrix interfaces is a composite system problem rather than that of the fiber coating.
