Coatings for Composite Aero-engine structures
Acronym: COMPOCOAT
Funding body: European Commission
Status: Completed
The COMPOCOAT project will develop a new surface protection system for the development of composite aero-engine aerofoil structures with metallic leading edge. The surface protection system will be based on TWI’s CompoSurfTM family of coating technologies and provide erosion protection for the metallic leading edge and thermal protection for the composite body.
