Fine ceramics (advanced ceramics, advanced technical ceramics) - Test method for compressive behaviour of continuous fibre-reinforced composites at room temperature (ISO 20504:2006); German version EN ISO 20504:2016
Hochleistungskeramik - Bestimmung der Eigenschaften unter Druck von endlosfaserverstärkten Verbundwerkstoffen bei Raumtemperatur (ISO 20504:2006); Deutsche Fassung EN ISO 20504:2016
Overview
This International Standard describes procedures for determination of the compressive behaviour of ceramic matrix composite materials with continuous fibre reinforcement at room temperature. This method applies to all ceramic matrix composites with a continuous fibre reinforcement, uni-directional (1D), bi-directional (2D) and tri-directional (xD, with 2 <×≤ 3), tested along one principal axis of reinforcement. This method may also be applied to carbon-fibre-reinforced carbon matrix composites (also known as: carbon/carbon or C/C). Two cases of testing are distinguished: compression between platens and compression using grips. The text of ISO 20504:2006 has been prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 206 "Fine ceramics" of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and adopted as EN ISO 20504:2016 by CEN/TC 184 "Advanced technical ceramics", the secretariat of which is held by DIN. The responsible German committee is Working Committee NA 062-02-94 AA "Prüfung von Hochleistungskeramik - Keramische Verbundwerkstoffe" ("Testing of advanced technical ceramics - Ceramic composites") at DIN Standards Committee Materials Testing (NMP).
