Abstract

The present invention describes a method of CVI densification in which particular arrangements and mixtures of undensified porous substrates and partially densified porous substrates are arranged in particular ways in order to use the thermal characteristics of the partially densified porous substrates to better distribute heat throughout a CVI furnace and thereby improve densification.
