Abstract

As part of an overall program relating fiber surface roughness to the interfacial shear stress, the surfaces of several ceramic fibers have been characterized qualitatively using a Hitachi S-4500 FEG SEM operated at low voltages and quantitatively using a Topometrix atomic force microscope (AFM). The fibers examined were primarily Nicalon, a SiC fiber, and Nextel, an aluminosilicate fiber.
