Abstract
Process for manufacturing a nuclear component that includes i) a support containing a substrate based on a metal, the substrate being coated or not coated with an interposed layer positioned between the substrate and at least one protective layer and ii) the protective layer composed of a protective material including partially metastable chromium; the process includes a step a) of vaporizing a mother solution followed by a step b) of depositing the protective layer onto the support via a process of chemical vapor deposition of an organometallic compound by direct liquid injection (DLI-MOCVD).
