Abstract:
A blade includes an airfoil section extending between leading and trailing edges, first and second opposed sides each joining the leading and trailing edges, and an inner end and a free end. The blade also includes an abrasive tip at the free end of the airfoil section. The abrasive tip includes particles disposed in a matrix material. The matrix material is a polymeric material that has a glass transition temperature greater than or equal to about 225 degrees C. (437 degrees F.). A gas turbine engine and a method of fabricating a blade are also disclosed.
