Abstract
The main surface morphologies of boron fibres in the temperature range 1000 to 1500° C and the relevant experimental conditions for obtaining them have been investigated. After tensile testing of boron fibres with the various main morphologies, an approximate value for the tensile fracture stress could be assigned to each morphology. A method for identifyingin situ the morphologies formed during the deposition process is described. Finally, the maximum preparation times for obtaining high-strength boron fibres at various temperatures have been calculated.
