Project Number 1
Summary:
After initial testing several products showed good results in removing the negative photoresist.Test Objective:
To replace Xylene in cup cleaning operation (and preferably use of an non-voc)Product Use:
To collect excess photoresist from wafers (silicone)| Trial Number | Date Run | Purpose | Success Rating |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 06/15/1999 | To find a replacement for xylene in cleaning negative photoresist from equipment used to coat wafers. | Results successful using TACT (time, agitation, concentration, and temperature, as well as rinsing and drying) and/or other cleaning chemistries examined. |
| 1 | 06/17/1999 | To determine if a longer soak would aid in the removal of the contaminant. | A follow up test, usually based on company input. |
| 2 | 06/18/1999 | To determine if a longer soak and increase concentrations would aid in the removal of the contaminant. | Results suggest a scale-up feasible match for cleaning chemistry and equipment. Pilot plant study with actual parts recommended. |
| 3 | 06/25/1999 | To evaluate successful cleaner on actual parts. | A follow up test, usually based on company input. |
| 4 | 07/20/1999 | To evaluate successful cleaner on actual parts. | Results suggest a scale-up feasible match for cleaning chemistry and equipment. Pilot plant study with actual parts recommended. |
| 5 | 07/29/1999 | To determine if previous tested cleaners could work at lower dilutions using immersion or ultrasonic cleaning. | A follow up test, usually based on company input. |
Project Number 2
Test Objective:
To switch to a less odorous cleaner.Product Use:
microelectronic systems| Trial Number | Date Run | Purpose | Success Rating |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 07/28/2011 | To evaluate cleaners for their effectiveness in removing lead and lead free solder on electronic parts with low odor. | Results successful using TACT (time, agitation, concentration, and temperature, as well as rinsing and drying) and/or other cleaning chemistries examined. |
| 1 | 10/13/2011 | Further evaluation on reduced odor cleaning products | Results successful using TACT (time, agitation, concentration, and temperature, as well as rinsing and drying) and/or other cleaning chemistries examined. |
