    摘要: An engineered ceramic component for the leading edge of a rotor blade provides enhanced erosion protection therefor. In one embodiment, the engineered ceramic component includes a strain isolator member, an aerodynamic ceramic member, a first adhesive bond layer, and a second adhesive bond layer. The strain isolator member, which is operative to minimize strain transfer between the rotor blade infrastructure and the aerodynamic ceramic member, is configured so that inner mold line surface thereof is complementary to outer mold line surface of the rotor blade infrastructure. The aerodynamic ceramic member, which is operative to provide enhanced erosion protection for the respective leading edge of the rotor blade, is configured so that the outer mold line surface thereof defines the aerodynamic configuration of the respective leading edge and the inner mold line surface is complementary to the outer mold line surface of the strain isolator member. The aerodynamic ceramic member is fabricated from an engineered ceramic material, which are defined in the present context as ceramic materials having a hardness greater than 1200 kg/mm.sup.2 and an average flexural strength equal to or greater than 40 ksi. The first adhesive bond layer is operative to bond the strain isolator member to the rotor blade infrastructure and the second adhesive bond layer is operative to bond the aerodynamic ceramic member to the strain isolator member. In another embodiment, the engineered ceramic member includes the aerodynamic ceramic member described hereinabove and a thick adhesive layer. The thick adhesive layer is operative to minimize strain transfer between the rotor blade infrastructure and the aerodynamic ceramic member and to bond the aerodynamic ceramic member in combination with the rotor blade infrastructure.

    摘要: An erosion resistant ceramic component is synthesized from a silicon oxynitride precursor powder with a sintering aide. The sintering aide, preferably aluminum oxide and/or lutetium oxide are added to the silicon oxynitride precursor powder and ball milled. The composition is then decanted, dried and granulated. The composition is then formed into the shape of the desired component by hot pressing in a graphite die. A heat treatment process may also be applied after hot pressing to further improve erosion resistance by crystallizing amorphous grain boundary phases to provide a ceramic component having sand erosion characteristics superior to electro-formed nickel. The component provides a dielectric constant which is much lower than the dielectric constant of an electro-formed nickel component. The erosion resistant ceramic components are particularly applicable to leading edge components of main rotor blades, however, erosion protection of tail rotor blades, engine propellers, turbine blades, and other such components where high levels of erosion protection, and a low dielectric constant are desired will also benefit.
