Abstract: The invention relates to a hybrid blade (1) for thermal turbomachines, having an airfoil (2) made of a metallic material of a certain density, and having a blade root (3). It is characterized in that the blade root (3), compared with the airfoil (2), is made of a different metallic material having a lower density, and in that the airfoil (20) is connected to the blade root (3) in a positive-locking manner. The blade in this case is advantageously a compressor blade, in particular a high-pressure compressor blade, in which the airfoil (2) is made of a stainless CrNi steel and the blade root (3) is made of a high-temperature titanium alloy or an intermetallic gamma titanium aluminide alloy or an intermetallic orthorhombic titanium aluminide alloy.

Abstract: The invention relates to an axial-flow thermal turbomachine having a metallic rotor (1), in which rotor blades (3) made of an intermetallic compound are mounted in a circumferential groove to form a row of blades. The invention is characterized in that at least two rotor blades (3?) which are at a uniform distance from one another and are made of a more ductile material are arranged in the said row of blades between the intermetallic rotor blades (3), the rotor blades (3?) made of the more ductile material either being considerably longer than the intermetallic blades (3) or, if they are of the same length, having a different blade tip shape than the intermetallic blades (3).
