Abstract
A method of fabricating a ceramic article includes providing a porous body that includes a plurality of fiber bundles that has an intra-bundle porosity and an inter-bundle porosity, infiltrating the intra-bundle porosity and the inter-bundle porosity with a mixture of particles in a liquid carrier, the particles having an average size selected with respect to at least the intra-bundle porosity, removing the liquid carrier from the porous body to deposit the particles in the intra-bundle porosity and in the inter-bundle porosity, infiltrating a preceramic polymer into a remaining intra-bundle porosity and a remaining inter-bundle porosity, and thermally converting the preceramic polymer to a ceramic material.
