  • ADDITIVE FABRICATION WITH INFILTRATION BARRIERS
    Publication number: 20210114110
    Abstract: A method of maintaining part geometry fidelity during infiltration of a metallic preform. The preform and an infiltration barrier are formed, either independently or together during an additive manufacturing process. The infiltration barrier prevents infiltrant from bleeding out from the preform where it is present, thus protecting fine geometries that would otherwise be filled with infiltrant.
