Hochleistungskeramik - Benennungen und Formelzeichen

Dieser Fachbericht definiert die zur Darstellung der physikalischen, mechanischen und thermischen Größen in maßgeblichen CEN-Publikationen verwendeten Formelzeichen für Hochleistungskeramik, einschließlich Verbundwerkstoffen mit keramischer Matrix. Er gibt eine Leitlinie zur Schreibweise der Formelzeichen von Kennwerten dieser Werkstoffe, damit Verwechslungen bei der Berichterstattung über Messungen und Kennwerte von Erzeugnissen verhindert werden.
In den Fällen, in denen es möglich war, sind die Definitionen in Übereinstimmung mit den sachbezogenen Teilen von ISO 31 und ISO 80000 gegeben. Zusätzlich sind auch die Formelzeichen definiert, die bei der Durchführung von Messungen dieser Kennwerte verwendet werden.

This document (CEN/TR 13233:2007) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 184
“Advanced technical ceramics”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such

1 Scope
This Technical Report defines the symbols to be used to represent physical, mechanical and thermal
characteristics, as determined by methods described in relevant CEN publications, for advanced
technical ceramics, including ceramic matrix composites. It is a guide for writing the symbols of
quantities of these materials to avoid confusion in reporting measurements and characteristics of
products.
Where possible, the definitions are in accordance with the relevant parts of ISO 31 and ISO 80000. In
addition the symbols used in undertaking measurements of these characteristics are also defined.
2 Normative references

3 Symbols, units and notations
3.1 General symbols
Contrary to monolithic materials, continuous fibre reinforced ceramic matrix composites show a
directional dependence in their thermal and mechanical properties, because of their anisotropic
nature. A specific set of standards different from those for monolithic materials is required in order to
characterize these properties, both at room temperature and at the anticipated high application
temperatures. To allow adequate representation of the directional dependence, a notation convention
is needed to identify the reinforcement directions in a right-hand orthogonal coordinate system for
purposes of sampling test pieces and for the presentation of results.
3.2 Symbols and notations specific to ceramic matrix composites
The use of the subscripts 1, 2, 3 attached to the symbols used for mechanical properties makes it
possible to define the mechanical characteristics of a material along one of its principal directions. The
use of the subscripts (12, 13, 23) attached to the symbols used for mechanical properties makes it
possible to give a material characteristics in one of the principal planes, for example:
σ : tensile strength in the 1 direction;
1,t,m
G : shear modulus in the 12 plane.
Figures 1 to 4 give examples of denotation on long fibre ceramic matrix composite materials.

3.3 Symbols, definitions and units
Tables 1 to 4 give symbols, definitions and units generally used for quantities referred to in standards
for advanced technical ceramics.
NOTE The quantities listed are referred to in the standards given in the final column of each table, although
it is possible that the corresponding symbols have not been used. In this case, it is anticipated that they will be
incorporated in the next revision of the standard.
