Zusammenfassung:A method of making a ceramic matrix composite according to an exemplary embodiment of this disclosure, among other possible things includes forming a ceramic matrix composite component (100) by infiltrating an array (102) of ceramic-based fibers (104) with a ceramic-based matrix (106). The array (102) of ceramic-based fibers (104) forms a surface (108) that includes gaps (110) between adjacent ones of the fibers (104). The method also includes applying a paste including filler particles (114) and filler matrix (116) in a carrier fluid to the surface (108) of the ceramic-based fibers (104) that includes the gaps (110) such that the paste fills the gaps (110) and removing the carrier fluid to leave behind a filler (112) including the filler particles (114) and the filler matrix (116) in the gaps (110). A ceramic matrix composite component (100) is also disclosed.
