Q1: What is the CAS Number for this specialty-grade triethylenetetramine?
A: The CAS Registry Number is 112-24-3. This product is manufactured and purified exclusively to semiconductor-grade specifications — distinct from commercial or technical grades bearing the same CAS.
Q2: What is the recommended dosage range when used as a chelating agent in CMP slurry formulations?
A: Typical dosage is 0.05–0.3 wt% relative to total slurry mass. Optimal concentration is application-specific and must be validated via zeta potential and particle size distribution analysis to avoid agglomeration.
Q3: How does this grade differ from standard TETA (e.g., Sigma-Aldrich 207742) in terms of semiconductor process compatibility?
A: Unlike general-purpose TETA, this grade undergoes multi-stage distillation under inert atmosphere, followed by sub-micron filtration and real-time ionic impurity monitoring. It contains ≤ 5 ppb total metals (vs. ≥ 500 ppb in standard grades) and zero detectable chloride or sulfate — critical for gate oxide integrity.
Q4: Is there data available on extractables/migratables in contact with high-purity process water (UPW) at 60 °C?
A: Yes. Per ASTM F3245-22 testing, total organic carbon (TOC) leachables remain < 0.5 ppb after 72 h immersion in UPW at 60 °C, with no detectable amine fragments by LC-MS/MS.
Q5: Does this material comply with JEDEC J-STD-033 moisture sensitivity levels for dry-packaged semiconductor raw materials?
A: While not classified as an MSL device, the sealed packaging meets J-STD-033 Level 2a requirements (≤ 30 µg/g moisture uptake over 12 months at 30 °C/60% RH), verified by gravimetric moisture permeation testing.
