Wear and Corrosion Resistance Applications of CVD Coatings

Existing development and production applications in wear, erosion and corrosion protection are shown in Table 17.3. 

Erosion, and Corrosion Applications of Refractory Carbides and Nitrides 

Molding tools and dies for glass-filled plastics (Ti(C,N)) Extrusion dies for ceramic molding (TiC) 

Valves for coal-liquefaction components (TiB2)l l Heating elements (SiC) 

These materials are produced in monolithic form or as coatings. The coatings are generally applied by CVD on ceramic substrates and by sputtering, electron-beam evaporation, or ion-beam assisted deposition on steel substrates (see Appendix).
