  • Composite compressor impeller with an erosion resistant coating and methods of manufacturing
    Patent number: 10012237
    Abstract: Impellers made of composite materials with flow path cavities covered by an erosion resistant coating are manufactured by covering removable molds having shapes corresponding to a negative geometry of the flow path cavities, with the erosion resistant coating using plating or thermal spraying. After shaping and curing a composite material around the molds covered with the erosion resistant coating, the molds are removed, while the erosion resistant coating remains on the composite impeller.
    Type: Grant
