DIN EN 12788:2005-11

This document specifies the conditions for determination of the flexural strength of ceramic matrix composite materials with continuous fibre reinforcement under three-point or four-point bending for temperatures up to 2000 °C under vacuum or a gas atmosphere which is inert to the material under test. This Prestandard applies to all ceramic matrix composites with a continuous fibre reinforcement, unidirectional, bidirectional, and tridirectional, loaded along one principal axis of reinforcement.
