In this study we present the investigation of the influence of multiple sterilization processes on micromechanical properties carried out on a composite based on carbon fibers and polymer matrix composite polydimethylsiloxane. The effect of widely-used steam sterilization process on fibers/matrix interphase region properties was studied by nanoindentation.
