Thermal conductivity of SiC/SiC ceramic composites is improved by thermal treatment (annealing) process developed at Glenn. The annealing studies were conducted on CMCs processed by three different methods: (1) CVI only, (2) combination of CVI and PIP, and (3) combination of CVI and MI. The thermal treatment increased thermal conductivity of CMCs processed by all three methods.
