A fibrous silicon carbide substrate is disclosed that provides porosity through an open network of pores resulting from an intertangled arrangement of silicon carbide fibers. The fibrous structure is formed from mixing carbon or organic fibers with silicon based additives, and forming a honeycomb substrate. The carbon or organic fibers are heated in an inert environment to form silicon carbide through a reaction of the carbon in the fibers and the silicon-based additives.
