Technology is evolving at a faster rate now than at any point in modern history. As the demand for semiconductors continues to rapidly increase, manufacturers feel the pressure to meet that need while maintaining the standards required to produce high-yield chips.
To support that demand, Eastman electronic grade isopropyl alcohol (IPA) is the latest addition to the EastaPure™ electronic chemicals line that offers U.S. semiconductor manufacturers a domestically made solvent as reliable in quality as it is in supply.
EastaPure IPA is an effective wet-clean solvent in wafer fabrication and throughout the semiconductor production process. It is widely used as a cleaning and drying agent in front, middle and back end-of-line processes as well as in advanced packaging processes.
Eastman EastaPure electronic chemicals are made in world-class manufacturing facilities and housed in dedicated process and storage equipment to keep contaminants out. These specialized resources and in-house production controls ensure product reliability. Manufacturers using electronic grade IPA can have confidence as the strong need for quality assurance is of utmost importance.
“EastaPure solutions are a testament to our culture of quality infused with innovative thinking,” said Levi Aray, Eastman segment market manager. “We are excited to bring this new solvent to the marketplace, and we are ready to meet the needs of customers.”
Electronic grade IPA users can be sure not only of its 99.99% purity but also its reliable supply. Eastman makes electronic grade IPA in the United States, helping mitigate supply chain concerns for U.S.-based technology brands and manufacturers. Eastman is also ramping up production to meet growing demand driven from onshoring microchip manufacturing facilities. Backed by more than 70 years of experience, the Eastman team of specialists stands behind electronic grade IPA and can help to continuously improve products to fulfill advancing technology.
“Every detail matters when pursuing perfection,” Aray said. “That’s why semiconductor manufacturers look for the EastaPure difference.”
