Frequently Asked Questions

What makes CVD different from PVD?

CVD uses chemical reactions at high temperatures to form a coating, making it ideal for complex geometries and internal surfaces, unlike line-of-sight PVD methods.

What industries commonly use CVD coatings?

CVD is widely used in aerospace, semiconductor, medical, and high-temperature tooling industries due to its durability and precision.

How thick are CVD coatings?

Thickness can range from 1 to 5 microns, depending on the material and application, making it suitable for high-performance environments.

Can CVD coatings withstand extreme temperatures?

Yes. CVD coatings are known for excellent thermal stability and can perform in temperatures exceeding 500°C, depending on the material.

Is CVD safe for medical or food-contact parts?

Yes, certain CVD coatings meet biocompatibility and food-safety standards when processed and applied correctly.
