Abstract:

A blade outer air seal has at least one internal surface and a layer atop the at least one internal surface. The layer has: a matrix comprising at least one of hafnium silicate (HfSiO.sub.4) and zirconium silicate (ZrSiO.sub.4), ytterbium disilicate (Yb.sub.2Si.sub.2O.sub.7); and barium magnesium alumino silicate (BMAS) or other alkaline earth aluminosilicate.
