The SCS-6 SiC fiber is a 142 μm diameter fiber consisting of four distinct regions of βSiC. These SiC regions vary in excess carbon content ranging from 10 a/o down to 5 a/o in the SiC1 through SiC3 region. The SiC4 region is stoichiometric. The SiC sub-grains in all regions grow radially outward from the carbon core of the fiber during the chemical vapor deposition processing of these fibers. In general, the sub-grain width changes from 50nm to 250nm while maintaining an aspect ratio of ~10:1 from the SiC1 through the SiC4 regions. In addition, the SiC shows a <110> texture, i.e., the {111} planes lie ±15° along the fiber axes. Previous has shown that the SCS-6 fiber (as well as the SCS-9 and the developmental SCS-50 μm fiber) undergoes primary creep (i.e., the creep rate constantly decreases as a function of time) throughout the lifetime of the creep test.

Silicon carbide (SiC) composites are receiving much attention for structural use at high temperatures. One class of composites are those reinforced with SiC fibers. The SiC fibers are coated with boron nitride (BN) which is weakly bonded to the fiber. During fracture, the coating deflects cracks causing pull-out of the fibers (Fig. 1). This process of fiber pull-out consumes energy and increases the toughness of the composite. Although much work has been done on characterizing these materials by SEM, not much has been done using TEM due to difficulties in specimen preparation. The purpose of this study is to characterize these fibers and composites using conventional and analytical TEM.In this study, TEM specimens were prepared by dimpling and ion milling. Careful control of the preparation was needed to ensure the integrity of the SiC-BN interface. Figure 2a is a TEM image of the fiber showing delamination at the SiC-BN interface.
