摘要

A wind turbine blade having a blade shell body made of a composite material comprising reinforcement fibres of a first fibre type embedded in a matrix material of a first matrix type is described. The blade comprises a tip end and a root end as well as a leading edge and a trailing edge. The blade comprises an erosion shield extending along an exterior surface of at least a portion of the blade shell body. The erosion shield comprises at least one inner layer of aramid reinforcement fibres embedded in a matrix material of a second matrix type, and at least one outer layer made of an UV resistant coating layer.
