On three different materials, C/C, C/SiC and SiC/SiC, bending tests under thermo-mechanical cycles have been performed, in accordance with the thermal load conditions of hypersonic launch and re-entry. The samples have been manufactured with oxidation protective coatings in order to investigate also the effect of oxidizing environment.
