Ultra-low residue formulation designed for post-dicing removal of polymer-based sawing debris and wafer edge contamination.
pH-neutral (6.8–7.2) aqueous solution ensuring compatibility with sensitive metallization layers and low-k dielectrics.
Rapid evaporation kinetics without streaking or watermarking on silicon, SiC, and GaN wafers.
Non-halogenated, non-flammable, and free of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) exceeding EPA Tier II limits.
Stable across standard process temperatures (15–40 °C) with no phase separation or precipitation during extended storage.
Cleaning silicon wafers after mechanical dicing with diamond-blade saws in front-end-of-line (FEOL) fabrication.
Removal of dicing tape residue and adhesive bleed from wafer backside and edge surfaces.
Post-dicing cleaning for compound semiconductor wafers (e.g., GaAs, InP, SiC) prior to wafer probing or packaging.
Final rinse step in automated batch cleaning systems for 200 mm and 300 mm wafer platforms.
Surface preparation for wafer-level underfill dispensing and die attach processes.

Q1: What is the CAS Registry Number for KEY-207?
A: KEY-207 is a proprietary multi-component formulation; individual ingredients are disclosed in Section 3 of the Safety Data Sheet (SDS), but the mixture itself does not carry a CAS number per IUPAC and OSHA guidelines.
Q2: What is the recommended usage concentration and temperature range?
A: KEY-207 is supplied as a ready-to-use solution. No dilution required. Optimal operating temperature is 20–35 °C; heating above 40 °C is not recommended to preserve surfactant stability.
Q3: How does KEY-207 compare to traditional IPA-based or acetone-based dicing cleaners?
A: Unlike flammable solvents, KEY-207 eliminates explosion hazards, reduces VOC emissions by >95%, and avoids metal corrosion or photoresist swelling—while delivering equivalent or superior particle removal efficiency (verified per JIS Z 8901 and SEMI F39).
Q4: Is KEY-207 compliant with ISO 14644-1 Class 5 cleanroom requirements for extractables?
A: Yes. Validated via IC-MS analysis showing total ionic extractables <0.1 ppb per wafer (tested per SEMI C32) and non-volatile residue (NVR) <10 ng/cm² after drying.
Q5: Does KEY-207 cause leaching or migration into low-k dielectric films (e.g., SiCOH)?
A: No. Independent testing per JEDEC JESD22-A108 shows zero measurable penetration or hydrophobicity loss in k=2.7 SiCOH films after 5-minute immersion at 25 °C.
