The thickness of PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) coatings typically ranges from 0.25 to 5 microns. This thinness is crucial as it allows the coatings to enhance properties such as smoothness, hardness, corrosion resistance, and load-bearing capacity without significantly altering the appearance of the material. For decorative applications, coatings can be as thin as 0.2 to 0.5 microns and still provide durability for many years. In more demanding applications, the thickness may need to be greater than 1 micron, and the substrate should also be harder to support the thin coating under stress. The specific thickness chosen depends on the intended use of the coated material and the conditions it will face.
