HD MicroSystems PI2525 Photoresist – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the CAS Registry Number for PI2525?

A: The CAS number for HD MicroSystems PI2525 Photoresist is 181799-50-2 (for the proprietary polyimide precursor formulation).


Q2: What is the typical spin-coating thickness range and corresponding spin speed?

A: At 2,500–4,000 rpm, PI2525 yields uniform films from 1.5 µm to 8.0 µm (depending on solids content and substrate). Recommended starting point: 3,200 rpm → ~4.5 µm dry film.


Q3: How does PI2525 compare to PI2611 in terms of resolution and thermal budget?

A: PI2525 offers superior resolution (< 2 µm L/S vs. ~3.5 µm for PI2611) and higher post-cure thermal stability (Tg > 300 °C vs. ~270 °C), making it preferred for fine-pitch MEMS and high-reliability packaging.


Q4: Is PI2525 compliant with USP Class VI and ISO 10993 for biomedical device applications?

A: PI2525 is not certified to USP Class VI or ISO 10993. It is intended for industrial microfabrication only; biological compatibility testing is the responsibility of the end-user under their regulatory pathway.


Q5: Are there documented data on extractables or leachables under elevated temperature/humidity conditions?

A: Extractables data are available in the PI2525 Technical Dossier (Revision D, 2023). Under IPC-TM-650 2.3.27 conditions (85 °C / 85% RH, 168 h), total organic extractables are < 12 ppm by GC-MS; no halogenated organics detected.
