Abstract
A part made of ceramic matrix composite material has fiber reinforcement of carbon or ceramic fibers and a majority-ceramic sequenced matrix having first matrix layers made of crack-deflector material alternating with second matrix layers made of ceramic material. An interphase coating is interposed between the fibers and the matrix, and the interphase coating adheres to the fibers and to the matrix, and is formed of at least one sequence constituted by a first elementary layer made of carbon, possibly doped with boron, surmounted by a second elementary layer made of ceramic. The outer elementary interphase layer of the coating is a ceramic layer having an outer surface formed by ceramic grains of size lying essentially in the range 20 nm to 200 nm, with the presence of grains of size greater than 50 nm conferring roughness on the outer surface ensuring mechanical attachment with the adjacent matrix phase.
