Coated quartz glass component

摘要

Quartz glass component having a coating with a silicon carbide surface includes a gradient layer of silicon carbide and at least one additional constituent which is less hard and has a lower modulus of elasticity than silicon carbide and whose concentration decreases across the thickness of the layer from inside to outside. The coated component has good thermal-shock resistance and long-term stability in terms of its chemical resistance to hydrofluoric acid and nitric acid as well as to a mixture of these two acids.
