摘要:
The invention relates to bodies, coated by a SiC hard material layer or by a layer system comprising at least one SiC hard material layer, and to a method for producing said type of coated bodies. The aim of the invention is to supply bodies with SiC layers that have a particle-free, non-porous structure, a high degree of hardness, low brittleness, high bond strength, good oxidation resistance and a high resistance to crack growth. According to the invention, the bodies are coated by a SiC layer or a multi-layer coating system comprising at least one SiC layer, wherein the SiC layer comprises nano-crystalline 3C-SiC comprising halogen or a mixed layer comprising nano-crystalline 3C-SiC comprising halogen and amorphous SiC or nano-crystalline 3C-SiC comprising halogen and amorphous carbon. The coating of said bodies is carried out in a thermal CVD process, wherein a gas mixture comprising H 2 and/or one or more inert gases, one or more of the halogen polysilanes of the formulae Si n X 2n , Si n X 2n+2 , Si n X y H z , wherein X is the halogen and n ≥ 2 and one or more hydrocarbons is used. Alternatively according to the invention a gas mixture comprising one or more substituted halogen polysilanes having organic substitutes R of the general formulae Si n X y R z or Si n H x X y R z is used in H 2 and/or one or more inert gases, wherein X is the halogen and n ≥ 2, z > 0, y ≥ 1. The stoichiometric ratios 2n+2 = y +z or 2n=y+z apply for Si n X y R z and the stochiometric ratios 2n+2 = x+y+z or 2n=x+y+z apply for Si n H x X y R z.
