Abstract

See full text

A method for modifying a ceramic matrix component is disclosed including identifying a non-conforming region of a composite component capable of operating in a gas turbine engine; removing at least a portion of the non-conforming region to create an exposed surface of the composite component; preparing a preform in response to the removing at least a portion of the non-conforming region; applying a reactive constituent surface region to at least one of the exposed surface of the composite component and the preform, the reactive constituent surface region being capable of producing a non-equilibrium condition; positioning the preform to provide a contact region between the exposed surface of the composite component and the preform proximate the reactive constituent surface region; and reacting the reactive constituent surface region in an equilibrium reaction at the contact region to form a bond structure between the exposed surface of the composite component and the preform.
