Semiconductor Raw Material Specialty Amine Series Triethanolamine

Triethanolamine (TEA) from Semiconductor Raw Material Specialty Amine Series by ChemPur™ is a high-purity, low-metal-content amine used in semiconductor CMP slurries, photoresist developers, and etchant formulations. Its ultra-low sodium/potassium (<10 ppb) and controlled hydroxyl functionality ensure precision pH buffering and metal ion chelation critical for advanced node fabrication.

Features Of Semiconductor Raw Material Specialty Amine Series Triethanolamine

  1. Ultra-high purity (≥99.95%) with stringent trace metal control (<10 ppb Fe, Cu, Ni, Na, K), meeting semiconductor-grade cleanliness requirements.

  2. Low volatility and excellent thermal stability up to 180°C, ensuring process consistency in high-temperature wafer cleaning and polishing formulations.

  3. Controlled amine functionality with minimal diethanolamine (DEA) and monoethanolamine (MEA) impurities (<50 ppm each), reducing risk of residue formation on sensitive device surfaces.

  4. Non-volatile, non-corrosive, and compatible with ultra-low-particulate handling environments (Class 10 cleanroom compliant packaging).

  5. Batch-to-batch reproducibility certified via GC-MS, IC, and ICP-MS analytical reports for every production lot.

Typical Applications Of Semiconductor Raw Material Specialty Amine Series Triethanolamine

  1. Formulation component in post-CMP (Chemical Mechanical Planarization) slurry stabilizers and pH buffers for copper and low-k dielectric processing.

  2. Chelating agent in wafer surface passivation solutions to suppress metal ion leaching during wet etch and rinse steps.

  3. Viscosity modifier and co-solvent in photoresist stripper and organic solvent-based cleaning blends for advanced node (≤7 nm) logic and memory devices.

  4. pH regulator in ultrapure water (UPW)-compatible cleaning chemistries for front-end-of-line (FEOL) gate oxide protection.

  5. Stabilizer for nanoparticle dispersions used in next-generation EUV mask cleaning formulations.

Semiconductor Raw Material Specialty Amine Series Triethanolamine – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the CAS Number for this specialty-grade triethanolamine?

A: The CAS Registry Number is 102-71-6. This refers specifically to the ultra-high-purity semiconductor grade described herein — distinct from technical or pharmaceutical grades.


Q2: What is the recommended usage concentration in CMP slurry formulations?

A: Typical dosage ranges from 0.05–0.3 wt% in final slurry; optimal concentration is formulation-specific and validated via zeta potential and particle size distribution testing.


Q3: How does this specialty amine differ from standard triethanolamine in terms of extractables and leachables?

A: Unlike commodity grades, this variant undergoes multi-stage vacuum distillation and sub-micron filtration, reducing volatile organic extractables by >99% and eliminating detectable leachables (e.g., nitrosamines, residual solvents) per USP <661.2> and SEMI F57 test methods.


Q4: Is this material certified for use in ISO Class 1 cleanrooms?

A: Yes — packaged in double-bagged, nitrogen-purged HDPE carboys with 0.2 µm PTFE vent filters; certified for ≤1 particle ≥0.5 µm per mL (per ISO 14644-1 Class 1 airborne particulate limits at rest).
