TaC Coating with High Crystallinity and Excellent Uniformity
Corrosion Resistance Comparison of TaC & SiC Coatings in NH3 at 1500 °C
Typical Property Comparison of TaC and SiC Coatings
| Density (gm/cm3) | Emissivity(1) | CTE (x10-6/K) | Hardness (HK) | Resistance (Ohm-cm) | Thermal Stability | Etch Rate(2) in NH3 (μm/hr) | Etch Rate(3) in H3 (μm/hr) | Thickness Variation | Graphite Dimension Change | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Note: Test data. Actual results may vary.
Typical properties are average data and are not to be used as or to develop specifications.
(1) Emissivity is measured at 950nm and 1000 °C.
