A method to form a hole in a ceramic matrix composite component may be provided. A monolithic rod may be inserted into a porous ceramic preform. The ceramic preform may be formed into a ceramic matrix composite body that includes the monolithic rod. A portion of the monolithic rod may be removed, leaving a remaining portion in the ceramic matrix composite body. The remaining portion may include walls that define the opening in the ceramic matrix composite body. Alternatively or in addition, a ceramic matrix composite component may be provided. The ceramic matrix composite component may comprise a ceramic matrix composite body that includes a portion of a monolithic rod. The portion of the monolithic rod forms a lining around a hole passing partly or entirely through a length of the monolithic rod.

An article including a substrate and a plurality of coatings disposed on the substrate is presented. The plurality of coatings includes a thermal barrier coating disposed on the substrate; and a protective coating including a calcium-magnesium-aluminum-silicon-oxide (CMAS)-reactive material disposed on the thermal barrier coating. The CMAS-reactive material has an orthorhombic weberite crystal structure. The CMAS-reactive material is present in the plurality of coatings in an effective amount to react with a CMAS composition at an operating temperature of the thermal barrier coating, thereby forming a reaction product having one or both of melting temperature and viscosity greater than that of the CMAS composition. A method of making the article and a related turbine engine component are also presented.
