These results suggest that silicon volatilized and that this phenomenon advanced from the surface toward the core. Data in the literature support this assumption. Thus, Fig. 13 shows that SiC decomposes at tem￾peratures above 14001C when the pressure is identical to that in the chamber (104 Pa). Furthermore, the authors have shown that gaseous Si (g) is produced preponderantly under these con￾ditions.41–48 The experimental conditions were favorable to sil￾icon volatilization. Thermodynamic equilibrium could not be reached and the pressure of gaseous Si (g) remained above the equilibrium value in the chamber: (i) The pressure in the chamber (104 Pa) is smaller than that of Si (g) at temperatures above 14001C, according to Fig. 13. As a consequence, gaseous species can be eliminated; (ii) The chamber wall was covered with a deposit after the tests, indicating that gaseous products condensed. The above phenomenon cannot be attributed to active oxi￾dation from residual oxygen. Active oxidation would have a more serious effect. Under such vacuum conditions, oxidation products (SiO (g) and CO (g)) would be continuously eliminat￾ed, so that the fiber would be completely destroyed. The authors who observed degradation of SiC fibers at a high temperature under argon49 attributed this phenomenon to active oxidation. But they did not go into an in-depth investigation to ascertain their interpretation. The creep rate acceleration would result from a change in the stress state in the SiC fiber, caused by the annular degradation of fiber. During Si volatilization, stiff SiC is replaced by a porous carbon material that is much more compliant. As a conse￾quence, the load is carried preponderantly by the SiC core. As annular degradation proceeds, there is an increase in stress, according to the following equation: sðtÞ ¼ soR2 c ðRc  eðtÞÞ2 (6) 0 0.2 0.4 0.6 0.8 1 1.2 1.4 1.6 0 4 8 12 16 20 24 Temps (h) Strain (%) Test stop for SEM observation Fig. 11.
