The stress rupture strength of the SYL-iBN/BN/SiC composite was evaluated at 550 and 750 °C with moisture content levels of 0.0, 0.2, and 0.6 atm partial pressure of water vapor, pH₂O. The stress rupture strengths decreased with respect to time with the rate of decrease related to the temperature and the amount of moisture content. In all cases the degradation was more severe initially and then approached a run-out threshold level. The thresholds were reached at approximately 100+, 60, 80 h for the 550 °C with 0.0, 0.2, and 0.6 pH₂O, respectively. The thresholds were reached at approximately 40, 20, and 10 h for the 750 °C cases. The interpolated stress rupture strengths at 100 h for 0.0, 0.2, and 0.6 pH₂O at 550 °C were 82%, 68%, and 51% of the room temperature monotonic tensile strength. At 750 °C these strengths were 67%, 51%, and 50%. Analysis of Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy images showed evidence of embrittlement of the fiber/matrix interphase. Little to no embrittlement was observed at both temperatures with 0.0 pH₂O. At both 550 and 750 °C with 0.2 and 0.6 pH₂O, evidence of embrittlement increased with temperature and test duration with the most extensive embrittlement observed at 750 °C with 0.6 pH₂O.
