The use of microwave energy to heat substrates during chemical vapor infiltration (CVI) is described. Both numerical predictions and experimentally observed thermal profiles indicate that steep inverted thermal gradients can be established in fibrous preforms subjected to microwave radiation. When combined with the CVI technique, the inverted gradients can be exploited to promote inside-out densification. Recent microwave assisted CVI results, which focus on silicon based matrix materials, are described. Emphasis is placed on the role played by the relative ability of fiber and matrix to dissipate microwave energy. Issues central to further process development, such as the effect of interfacial coating on subsequent microwave processing, are discussed.
