Abstract

A corrosion resistant member has a portion to be exposed to a corrosive gas. The portion to be exposed to the corrosive gas is formed of a ceramic sintered body. The mean width (Rsm) of profile elements of a surface of the ceramic sintered body is 25 μm or less, and the ratio (Rsm/Ra) of the mean width (Rsm) of the profile elements to the arithmetic mean roughness (Ra) of the surface of the ceramic sintered body is 4,000 or less.

Claims (8)

1. A corrosion resistant member having a portion to be exposed to a corrosive gas,

wherein the portion to be exposed to the corrosive gas is formed of a ceramic sintered body, and

the ceramic sintered body has a surface having a mean width (Rsm) of profile elements of 25 μm or less, and the ratio (Rsm/Ra) of the mean width (Rsm) of the profile elements to an arithmetic mean roughness (Ra) of the surface of the ceramic sintered body is 4.00 or less.

2. The corrosion resistant member according to claim 1 , wherein the surface of the ceramic sintered body has an arithmetic mean roughness (Ra) of 0.02 μm or less.

3. The corrosion resistant member according to claim 1 , wherein the surface of the ceramic sintered body has a maximum height (Rz) of 0.2 μm or less.

4. The corrosion resistant member according to claim 1 , wherein the ceramic sintered body contains, as a predominant component, at least one species selected from alumina, yttria, and yttrium aluminum garnet.

5. The corrosion resistant member according to claim 1 , wherein the portion to be exposed to the corrosive gas is at least a part of a gas nozzle, the part forming a nozzle hole of the gas nozzle.

6. The corrosion resistant member according to claim 1 , wherein the mean width (Rsm) of the profile elements is 5 μm or more, and the ratio (Rsm/Ra) is 250 or more.
