Abstract The corrosion of SiC fibres with HNO3 has been studied. Characterization has been carried out by means of infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and adsorption of nitrogen and benzene. Corrosion attack changes the specific surface area of the fibres and increases the surface roughness along the fibres. The microstructure of the fibres is not modified by the attack. The surface heterogeneity of the original fibres shows a different feature when the fibres have been corroded; the distribution of active sites on the surface of the fibres is changed by acid attack.
