Abstract: A rotor blade assembly for a wind turbine includes at least one rotor blade having surfaces defining a pressure side, a suction side, a leading edge, and a trailing edge extending between a blade tip and a blade root. The surfaces are constructed of a polymeric composite material. The rotor blade assembly also includes a protection cap arranged adjacent to one or more of the surfaces of the rotor blade so as to cover at least a portion of the one or more surfaces of the rotor blade. The protection cap includes a body defining an overall length. Further, at least a first segment of the protection cap is constructed of a tungsten-based metal. Thus, the protection cap is configured to reduce erosion and resist corrosion of the rotor blade caused by particle or liquid impact.

Abstract: An anti-fretting coating composition that is operationally stable at temperatures of 800° F. to 2650° F. is provided. The anti-fretting coating composition primarily includes cobalt and aluminum oxide and may also include other modifying phases that enhance the overall tribological performance. A component coated with the anti-fretting coating composition is also provided. The component includes a substrate having a first contact surface shaped to cooperate with a second contact surface of an abutting member in a manner which can develop wear between the first contact surface and the second contact surface. The first contact surface includes an anti-fretting coating thereon formed from the disclosed anti-fretting coating composition.
