Features Of Photoresist Raw Material Styrene

  1. High-purity monomeric styrene (≥99.9%) optimized for photoresist polymer synthesis with minimal inhibiting impurities.

  2. Low peroxide content (<5 ppm) to ensure consistent free-radical polymerization kinetics in resist resin formulation.

  3. Controlled inhibitor level (4-methyl-2,6-di-tert-butylphenol, 10–15 ppm) for safe handling and extended shelf life without compromising reactivity.

  4. Ultra-low ionic residue (Na⁺ <0.1 ppm, Cl⁻ <0.05 ppm) to prevent pattern defects and metal contamination in semiconductor lithography.

  5. Batch-to-batch reproducibility certified via GC-MS and ICP-MS analysis, supporting qualification in high-volume manufacturing environments.

Typical Applications Of Photoresist Raw Material Styrene

  1. Synthesis of styrene-based copolymer resins (e.g., styrene/maleic anhydride, styrene/acrylic acid) for positive-tone deep-UV (248 nm) photoresists.

  2. Monomer feedstock in the production of chemical amplification resist (CAR) base polymers requiring aromatic pendant groups for etch resistance.

  3. Co-monomer in acrylic-styrene hybrid resins used in advanced packaging lithography (e.g., fan-out wafer-level packaging).

  4. Building block for polyhydroxystyrene (PHS) precursor routes via post-polymerization sulfonation or hydrolysis.

  5. Functional monomer in resist formulations targeting improved adhesion to low-k dielectrics (e.g., SiCOH) and copper interconnects.

Photoresist Raw Material Styrene – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the CAS Number for Photoresist Raw Material Styrene?

A: The CAS Registry Number is 100-42-5. Our photoresist-grade material meets ASTM D2824 specifications with additional semiconductor-grade purification.


Q2: What is the typical usage concentration in photoresist resin synthesis?

A: In copolymer resins, styrene typically constitutes 20–60 mol% depending on target Tg, etch resistance, and dissolution rate; exact ratios are formulation-specific and require DOE optimization.


Q3: How does photoresist-grade styrene differ from technical-grade styrene?

A: Photoresist-grade styrene undergoes additional fractional distillation, chelation treatment, and sub-micron filtration to reduce metals (<0.5 ppm total), peroxides (<5 ppm), and carbonyl impurities (<10 ppm) — critical for lithographic defect control.


Q4: Is this material compliant with semiconductor industry migration requirements (e.g., SEMI S2/S8, JEDEC JESD22-A108)?

A: Yes — certified for low extractables in IPA and PGMEA solvents per SEMI C17; total volatile organic extractables <100 ppb under standardized leaching protocols.
