This document specifies a test method for determining the polytypes and their ratios in silicon carbide (SiC) wafers or bulk crystals using ultraviolet photoluminescence (UVPL) imaging. The range of SiC is limited to semiconductor SiC doped with nitrogen and boron to have a deep acceptor level and a shallow donor level, respectively. The SiC wafers or bulk crystals discussed in this document typically show electrical resistivities ranging from 10−3 ohm · cm to 10−2 ohm · cm, applicable to power electronic devices. This method is applicable to the SiC-crystal 4H, 6H and 15R polytypes that contain boron and nitrogen as acceptor and donor, respectively, at concentrations that produce donor-acceptor pairs (DAPs) to generate UVPL. In 4H-SiC the boron and nitrogen concentrations typically range from 1016 cm−3 to 1018 cm−3. Semi-insulating SiC is not of concern because it usually contains minimal boron and nitrogen; therefore deep level cannot be achieved.

This document covers the reporting of uniaxial strength data and the estimation of probability distribution parameters for advanced ceramics which fail in a brittle fashion. The failure strength of advanced ceramics is treated as a continuous random variable. Typically, a number of test specimens with well-defined geometry are brought to failure under well-defined isothermal loading conditions. The load at which each specimen fails is recorded. The resulting failure stresses are used to obtain parameter estimates associated with the underlying population distribution. This document is restricted to the assumption that the distribution underlying the failure strengths is the two-parameter Weibull distribution with size scaling. Furthermore, this document is restricted to test specimens (tensile, flexural, pressurized ring, etc.) that are primarily subjected to uniaxial stress states. Subclauses 6.4 and 6.5 outline methods of correcting for bias errors in the estimated Weibull parameters, and to calculate confidence bounds on those estimates from data sets where all failures originate from a single flaw population (i.e. a single failure mode). In samples where failures originate from multiple independent flaw populations (e.g. competing failure modes), the methods outlined in 6.4 and 6.5 for bias correction and confidence bounds are not applicable.

Indentation fracture resistance, KI,IFR, as defined in this document is not to be equated with fracture toughness determined using other test methods such as KIsc and KIpb. NOTE KI,IFR is an estimate of a material's resistance to cracking as introduced by an indenter and has correlations with wear resistance and rolling contact fatigue performance as well as machining processes, since these properties are governed by the resistance to crack extension in localized damage areas[1]-[3]. By contrast, fracture toughness properties KIsc and KIpb are intrinsic properties of a material and are relevant to macroscopic and catastrophic fracture events with long cracks rather than those phenomena caused by microscopic and successive damage accumulation associated with short cracks.

This method is not suitable for the determination of other performance attributes of photocatalytic materials, i.e. decomposition of water contaminants, self-cleaning, antifogging and antibacterial actions.

This document describes the flash method for the determination of thermal diffusivity of ceramic matrix composites with continuous fibre reinforcement. In order to conform with the unidimensional heat transfer hypothesis, the experimental conditions are defined such that the material behaves in a homogeneous manner. This involves performing tests in one symmetry axis of the composite. The method is applicable to materials which are physically and chemically stable during the measurement, and covers the range of temperature from 100 K to 2 800 K. It is suitable for the measurement of thermal diffusivity values in the range 10−4 m2∙s−1 to 10−7 m2∙s−1.

This document specifies a testing method for determining the density of thick ceramic coatings at ambient temperature using the Archimedes method. Methods for test piece preparation, test modes, data collection and density calculation are addressed. This document applies to ceramic coatings with a thickness > 0,1 mm including thermal barrier coatings, wear-resistance coatings and other thick coatings on metal or ceramic substrates.

This document describes a test method for the determination of the fracture toughness of monolithic ceramic thin plates at room temperature by the single-edge precracked plate method or the single-edge V-notch plate method. This document is intended for use with monolithic ceramics and whisker- or particulate-reinforced ceramics which are regarded as macroscopically homogeneous. It does not include continuous-fibre-reinforced ceramics composites. This document is applicable to ceramic thin plates with a thickness of 0,2 mm to The single-edge V-notch plate method can be applied to monolithic ceramics with a grain size larger than about 1 μm. The use of this method is inappropriate for yttria tetragonal zirconia polycrystal material (Y-TZP), which consists of homogeneous fine submicron grains. The method might also be unsuitable for some other very tough or soft ceramics in which a sharp crack does not form at the root of the V-notch. This document is for material development, material comparison, quality assurance, characterization, reliability and design data generation.

ISO 19604:2018 specifies the conditions for determination of the stress-rupture time diagram of continuous fibre-reinforced ceramic matrix composites (including carbon fibre-reinforced carbon matrix composite) at high temperature in air, vacuum and inert gas atmospheres under constant tensile loading. ISO 19604:2018 applies to all ceramic matrix composites with continuous fibre reinforcement: unidirectional (1D), bidirectional (2D) and tridirectional (xD, with 2 NOTE 1 In most cases, ceramic matrix composites to be used at high temperature in air are coated with an antioxidation coating. NOTE 2 Since the main purpose of the test is to obtain the stress-rupture time data, the deformation measurement is not mandatory.

ISO 20323:2018 specifies the conditions for the determination of tensile properties of ceramic matrix composite tubes with continuous fibre-reinforcement at ambient temperature in air atmospheric pressure. This document is specific to the tubular geometries since fibre architecture and specimen geometry factors are distinctly different in composite tubes than in flat specimens. ISO 20323:2018 provides information on the uniaxial tensile properties and tensile stress-strain response such as tensile strength and strain, tensile elastic modulus and Poisson's ratio. The information may be used for material development, control of manufacturing (quality insurance), material comparison, characterization, reliability and design data generation for tubular components. ISO 20323:2018 addresses, but is not restricted to, various suggested test piece fabrication methods. It applies primarily to ceramic and/or glass matrix composite tubes with a continuous fibrous-reinforcement: unidirectional (1D filament winding and tape lay-up), bi-directional (2D braid and weave) and tri-directional (xD, with 2 Values expressed in this document are in accordance with the International System of Units (SI). NOTE In most cases, ceramic matrix composites to be used at high temperature in air are coated with an antioxidation coating.

ISO 19652:2018 specifies a test method for the determination of complete decomposition performance of indoor light-active photocatalytic materials under an indoor lighting environment using acetaldehyde. In this document, photocatalytic materials are usually made from semiconducting metal oxides, such as titanium dioxide, tungsten trioxide or other ceramic materials, and they are treated in powder form. This document does not apply to film, flat sheet, board and other plate-shape materials. This method is not suitable for the determination of other performance attributes of photocatalytic materials, i.e. decomposition of water contaminants, self-cleaning, antifogging and antibacterial actions.

ISO 20379:2018 specifies a method for measurement of thixotropic behaviour of ceramic slurry with rotational viscometer. The slurry with high-solid loading, which is used in ceramic manufacturing, has a generally non-Newtonian property. This method is limited to measurement of thixotropic behaviour of high-solid loaded ceramic slurry with "coaxial double cylinder viscometer", "cone and plate viscometer" and "a parallel plate viscometer" as rotational viscometers.
