This CEN Technical Specification specifies a single fibre push-out method to determine the fibre-matrix
bonding characteristics of ceramic matrix composite materials at room temperature, by the measurement of
the interfacial frictional shear stress.
This standard applies to all continuous fibre-reinforced ceramic matrix composites whatever the type of
reinforcement: unidirectional (1D), bidirectional (2D) and tridirectional (xD, with 2 < x ≤ 3).
