Storage box for an object to be protected against physicochemical contamination

摘要

The invention relates to a storage box for an object that is to be protected from physicochemical contamination. The storage box is intended to have low weight, good mechanical strength, a good electrical condition, with a low degassing rate in time with prevention of diffusion of gasses from the external atmosphere into the interior of the box. The inner and/or outer surface of the box's walls are coated with at least one protective layer. The box may be used to store silicon wafers.
