Abstract The mechanical properties and the high‐temperature behaviour of fibre‐reinforced composites are controlled by both the microstructure and the microchemistry of fibre/matrix interlayers. For a C‐fibre reinforced SiC composite and various SiC (Nicalon)‐fibre reinforced Duran glasses, the composition of the interfacial layers, which are rich in different carbon modifications—due to either fibre precoating or subsequent solid state reactions—has been investigated by different techniques of analytical electron microscopy (AEM).
