PURPOSE: To enable film formation on a large-sized member such as a structural material by specifying the total amt. of free substances in a ceramic coating film.
CONSTITUTION: A reactive gas is sprayed from a plasma gun 13 on a substrate 10 on which a film is formed and an underlayer 11 and a ceramic coating film 12 are formed on the substrate 10. At this time, the total amt. of free substances in the ceramic coating film 12 is regulated to ≤200ppm by mol. A carbide ceramic thin film is previously formed on the surface of the substrate and a ceramic coating film having the same compsn. as the ceramic thin film is formed by a thermal plasma CVD method. The carbide ceramic is SiC or TiC. Coating films having the uniform compsn. can be formed even in thermal plasma CVD methods under different conditions.
