I would like to increase the row height to properly show the fraction of N2O/SiH4 in the table (see attached image). Also, I would like the last column not to increase width according to the pagewidth. As I am using multiple tables in this report, I would like to be able to specifiy for each specific table. Please let me know if the question remains unclear to you after seeing my MWE.

  • And what is the ` Y` column type, if you don't mind?

Not knowing what is the Y column type, nor the tudelft-sky-blue colour, I propose an approximation with this solution based on the \setcellgapes and \theadcommands from makecell. I also simplified your preamble, as some packages are already loaded by others.

\documentclass{report}

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

\tcbset{tab2/.style={enhanced,fonttitle=\bfseries,fontupper=\normalsize\sffamily,

\begin{document}

\setcellgapes{3pt}\makegapedcells
\renewcommand{\theadfont}{\normalsize\bfseries}
    \begin{tcolorbox}[tab2,tabularx={>{\centering\arraybackslash}X||c|c|c}]
        \captionof{table}{Oxide fraction estimated by weighing method}
