Features Of Wet Electronic Chemicals Electronic Grade Hydrochloric Acid

  1. Ultra-low metallic impurities (≤10 ppt for Fe, Cu, Ni, Cr, Zn, Na, K, Ca, Mg)

  2. Controlled anionic contaminants (SO₄²⁻, NO₃⁻, PO₄³⁻ ≤ 50 ppt each)

  3. Particulate-free formulation (<2 particles/mL @ ≥0.1 µm per ASTM F312-22)

  4. Stable concentration (36–37 wt% HCl) with tight batch-to-batch consistency (±0.1%)

  5. Manufactured and packaged under ISO Class 4 (Class 10) cleanroom conditions

Typical Applications Of Wet Electronic Chemicals Electronic Grade Hydrochloric Acid

  1. Silicon wafer surface cleaning prior to epitaxy or gate oxide growth

  2. Removal of metal residues (e.g., Al, Ti, W) in post-CMP rinse processes

  3. Etch accelerator and pH adjuster in advanced photoresist stripping solutions

  4. Pre-dip treatment for immersion lithography tools to suppress defect formation

  5. Regeneration of ion-exchange resins used in ultrapure water (UPW) polishing loops

Wet Electronic Chemicals Electronic Grade Hydrochloric Acid – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the CAS Number for Electronic Grade Hydrochloric Acid?

A: The CAS Registry Number is 7647-01-0.


Q2: How should this product be handled to minimize extractables during transfer into tool reservoirs?

A: Use only Class 10-certified PFA or high-purity quartz transfer lines; avoid stainless steel contact; pre-wet all fluid paths with ≥2 L of product before process use to reduce system leachables.


Q3: Does this grade meet SEMI C36 (2022) specifications for electronic grade hydrochloric acid?

A: Yes — fully compliant with SEMI C36-1122 for metallic impurities, anions, particles, and packaging integrity requirements.


Q4: Can it be diluted with UPW without compromising purity?

A: Yes — when diluted using ≥18.2 MΩ·cm UPW meeting SEMI F63 standards, dilution does not introduce measurable contamination; however, dilution must occur in a cleanroom environment (ISO Class 5 or better) to prevent particle ingress.
