Abstract
Reactor designs and process steps are provided for accomplishing vibro-thermally assisted chemical vapor infiltration (VTA-CVI). The provided reactors and processes overcome the challenges for manufacturing composite materials from porous scaffolds. Such reactors and processes find utility in various applications, including production of battery materials, including silicon-carbon composites suitable as anode materials for lithium ion batteries.
