Mechanical properties of ceramic composites can be improved by controlling interfacial bonding and choosing materials. To enhance interfacial bonding, treatment on the last SiC fiber, Hi-Nicalon S surface are proposed in this work. The aim is to allow chemical and/or mechanical bonds mainly with BN interphase. For this, composites models, minicomposites are elaborated by CVI (Chemical Vapor Infiltration). Quantification of the strength of interfacial bonding is based by evaluating interfacial bonding energy Gci with tensile tests, and by calculating interfacial shear stress τ with push-out tests. Firstly, Hi-Nicalon S fibers whose surfaces have been slightly modified have been tested with classic interphase PyC. Interfacial bonding on minic...
