We demonstrate that the temperature dependence of the electron spin polarization for the fractional states nu = 1/3 and nu = 2/3 displays activated behavior. This study enables the first measurement of the fractional quantum Hall spin-flip gaps. They are found to be systematically larger in comparison with the gaps simultaneously measured in transport. For nu = 1/3 and nu = 1/2, these spin-flip gaps allow the determination of the composite fermion interaction energy. This energy is investigated as a function of the finite width of the 2D channel.
