Transient stages during the chemical vapour deposition of silicon carbide from CH3SiCl3/H2: impact on the physicochemical and interfacial properties of the coatings

►Investigation of transient stages during chemical vapour deposition of SiC. ►Correlation with gas phase composition and deposition rate. ►Correlation with nature of gradient Si-C coatings (φTr). ►Synthesis of SiC/φTr/SiC bilayers. ►Adhesion assessment of SiC/φTr/SiC bilayers.
