Abstract

A process for densification of a ceramic matrix composite comprises forming a reinforcing ceramic continuous fiber stack having a central zone bounded by an outer zone adjacent; locating first particles within the central zone; coating the first particles and the ceramic fibers with silicon carbide through chemical vapor infiltration; locating second particles within the outer zone; coating the second particles and the ceramic fibers with silicon carbide through chemical vapor infiltration; forming the stack into a predetermined three dimensional shape; and densifying the stack.
