Coating of SiC (BP-SIGMA) fibers with alumina by a sol-gel process did not cause degradation even after heating to 1000°C in air for 24 h. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM ) methods were used to study the coating fiber interface.
