The invention relates to a method for producing a nuclear component comprising: i) a support containing a substrate based on a metal (1), the substrate (1) being coated, or not, with a spacer layer (3) positioned between the substrate (1) and at least one protective layer (2); and ii) the protective layer (2) consisting of a protective material comprising chromium; the method comprising a step a) of vaporising a mother solution followed by a step b) of depositing the protective layer (2) on the support by means of a direct liquid injection metal-organic chemical vapour deposition (DLI-MOCVD) method. The invention also relates to a nuclear component comprising: i) a support containing a substrate based on a metal (1), the substrate (1) being coated, or not, with a spacer layer (3) positioned between the substrate (1) and at least one protective layer (2); and ii) the protective layer (2) consisting of a protective material comprising chromium.nThe nuclear component produced by the method according to the invention has an improved resistance to oxidation, hydridation and/or migration of unwanted material. The invention further relates to the use of the nuclear component for controlling oxidation and/or hydridation. |
