5. Areas of application. Future prospects
The main areas of application for the CVD process can be divided into two categories, depending on whether the product formed is a coating (or layer) on a substrate, or a solid product independent of a substrate.
Thick coatings or thin layers can be obtained :
protection against mechanical wear ;
protection against high-temperature corrosion and oxidation;
production of components for optics and electronics;
etc.
5.1 Hard coatings: wear, friction
For some years now, industry has been interested in the production of very hard and resistant coatings such as carbides, nitrides,...
