Solvay Showcases Advanced Polymers for Semiconductors at Semicon Taiwan 2023

Solvay has announced that it is participating in Semicon Taiwan 2023 to present its comprehensive materials portfolio for the global and local semiconductors manufacturing industry.

In addition, the company will highlight the upcoming start of operations at its Taiwan-based Shinsol Advanced Chemicals #jointventure plant for the production of electronic-grade #hydrogen peroxide.

Sustainable Alternative to PFA and PTFE:

Solvay also presents several material solutions with an advanced sustainability profile. New bio-based polymer chemistry addresses ambitious environmental targets. Non-fluorosurfactant (NFS) Tecnoflon® #FKM and more sustainably produced Tecnoflon® #FFKM #elastomers show excellent plasma resistance for dry etch seal fabrication and a wide service temperature range, while exhibiting extremely low particle generation. And Halar® ECTFE grades provide a more sustainable alternative to #PFA and #PTFE for wet process applications.

Many of Solvay’s specialty polymers also extend into wafer handling, duct coating, filters, piping and tubing as well as BEOL processes from wafer level packaging (WLP) to probing and testing. The portfolio is complemented by dedicated specialty chemicals such as cleaning gas for etching, Interox® hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) for optimized wet etching and Cypure® PH3 cylindered phosphine dopant gas. All of these process chemicals, including fluids with very low #globalwarming potential, offer the highest levels of purity, quality and consistency in the market.

In line with the company’s continuing efforts to ensure the long-term supply security of its #specialtychemicals, #Solvay has invested in a new joint venture plant for the production of #electronic-grade H2O2, an indispensable chemical agent in wafer cleaning. Located at Tainan Technology Industry Park, the plant is scheduled for commissioning in the fourth quarter of 2023 with an initial capacity of 30,000 tons per year. It builds on Solvay’s experience with other H2O2 plants already operating in Asia, Europe and the United States and complies with strict international standards of quality, sustainability and environmental safety.
