A multi-year research program was conducted by a team consisting of Nippon Carbon Corporation, United Technologies Research Center (UTRC), the University of Tokyo, and the University of Delaware to study and analyze basic mechanisms of failure in SiC fiber reinforced glass matrix composites. This paper presents the results of one portion of this investigation performed by UTRC that studied the mechanical performance and in-situ carbon interfacial layer formation characteristics of glass and glass-ceramic matrix composites reinforced with Hi Nicalon{trademark} SiC fiber. The fiber was produced by Nippon Carbon Corp. and was supplied to UTRC for their use on the program.
