The invention relates to a slide valve () comprising: 110.-. (canceled)11. A slide valve comprising:a body having a through-duct for the passage of a fluid, the flow rate of which is to be controlled,at least one gate slidably mounted inside the body, crosswise to the duct, and partially or completely closing off the duct, the gate being movable between a position in which the duct is partially or completely closed off and a position in which the duct is open,in which the following are defined as portions subject to erosion:portions of the body that delimit the duct, at least one portion of the at least one gate located across the duct when{'sub': 4', '3', '4', '2', '3, 'the at least one gate partially or completely closes off the duct, characterized in that at least the portions subject to erosion are made of metal covered with a layer of ceramic material or are entirely made of ceramic material and the ceramic material comprises a ceramic matrix selected from the group consisting of silicon carbide SiC, boron carbide BC, silicon nitride SiN, aluminium nitride AlN, boron nitride BN, alumina AlO, and mixtures thereof, wherein carbon fibres or ceramic fibres are incorporated in the ceramic matrix.'}12. The slide valve according to claim 11 , characterized in that the ceramic fibres comprise crystalline alumina fibres claim 11 , mullite fibres claim 11 , crystalline or amorphous silicon carbide fibres claim 11 , zirconia fibres claim 11 , silica-alumina fibres claim 11 , or mixtures thereof.13. The slide valve according to claim 11 , characterized in that claim 11 , when the portions of the slide valve subject to erosion are made entirely of ceramic material claim 11 , the ceramic material is a sintered ceramic material.14. The slide valve according to claim 11 , characterized in that claim 11 , when the portions of the slide valve subject to erosion are made entirely of ceramic material claim 11 , the ceramic material is a Ceramic Matrix Composite (CMC).15. The slide ...
