ISO 20505:2005

Fine ceramics (advanced ceramics, advanced technical ceramics) — Determination of the interlaminar shear strength of continuous-fibre-reinforced composites at ambient temperature by the compression of double-notched test pieces and by the Iosipescu test

ISO 20505:2005 specifies a method for the determination of interlaminar shear strength of continuous-fibre-reinforced ceramic composites at ambient temperature, by the compression of a double-notched test piece or by the Iosipescu test. Methods for test piece fabrication, testing modes and rates (load rate or displacement rate), data collection, and reporting procedures are addressed.
