Features Of Semiconductor Raw Material MS Reagent Nitric Acid

  1. Ultra-high purity (≥99.999% trace metal basis) with sub-ppt level contamination control for critical semiconductor etching and cleaning processes.

  2. Manufactured under ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified cleanroom conditions with rigorous lot-to-lot consistency verification.

  3. Low non-volatile residue (NVR ≤ 10 ppb) and ultra-low chloride, sulfate, and particulate content per SEMI C37 standards.

  4. Stabilized formulation with proprietary inhibitor system to minimize NOx off-gassing and ensure extended shelf life.

  5. Supplied in fluoropolymer-lined, Class 100-certified HDPE or FEP containers to prevent leaching and adsorption.

Typical Applications Of Semiconductor Raw Material MS Reagent Nitric Acid

  1. Front-end-of-line (FEOL) silicon wafer surface conditioning prior to gate oxide deposition.

  2. Post-CMP (Chemical Mechanical Polishing) residue removal for copper and low-k dielectric layers.

  3. Photoresist stripping and sidewall passivation in advanced node (≤7 nm) lithography processes.

  4. Pre-diffusion cleaning of silicon wafers to eliminate metallic contaminants (Fe, Cu, Ni, Cr).

  5. Preparation of high-purity etchant blends for MEMS and power device fabrication.

Semiconductor Raw Material MS Reagent Nitric Acid – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the CAS Number for Semiconductor Raw Material MS Reagent Nitric Acid?

A: The CAS Number is 7697-37-2 for nitric acid; product-specific lot documentation includes full traceability to raw material sourcing and purification batch records.


Q2: How should this reagent be handled to prevent contamination during dispensing?

A: Use only Class 100-certified PFA or FEP tubing and fittings; avoid contact with stainless steel or glass; implement nitrogen blanketing during transfer and maintain closed-loop dispensing to prevent airborne particulate ingress.


Q3: How does MS Reagent Nitric Acid differ from standard electronic-grade (EL) nitric acid?

A: MS grade features stricter trace metal limits (≤10 ppt vs. ≤100 ppt for EL), lower NVR, enhanced particulate control, and full SEMI C37/C11 compliance—specifically engineered for sub-10nm node manufacturing where background contamination directly impacts yield.


Q4: Is there risk of extractables or leachables from packaging into the reagent during storage?

A: No—packaging uses multi-layer fluoropolymer liners (FEP + PFA) validated per USP <788> and SEMI F57 for zero detectable leachables (tested by GC-MS and ICP-MS after 90-day accelerated aging at 40°C).
