<strong>Semi</strong>conductor technology<br />

In the semiconductor technology lightweight and versatile<br />

plastics have been used in different processing steps and<br />

testing of semiconductor products for many years. Their<br />

success is based on a <strong>com</strong>bination of material benefits<br />

which are brought to bear even under harsh chemical or different<br />

temperature level conditions. Moreover the trend to<br />

even smaller and more powerful integrated circuits (ICs)<br />

raises new challenges to the entire production chain, from<br />

cutting the raw wafer to the final testing stage, which can<br />

be met by the deployment of technical plastics.<br />

In the process of semiconductor production, technical plastics<br />

can be used in a wide range of applications. The special<br />

demands imposed upon these materials are addressed by<br />

the outstanding properties of high performance plastics:<br />

ˌˌHigh thermo-mechanical strength<br />

ˌˌMinimal thermal expansion<br />

ˌˌGood wear resistance<br />

ˌˌGood chemical resistance to acids, alkalis, greases<br />

and solvents, hydrogen peroxide, demineralised water,<br />

hot steam<br />

ˌˌGood plasma resistance<br />

ˌˌMinimal out-gassing under vacuum<br />

ˌˌMinimal foreign ion content<br />

ˌˌGood electrical insulating properties, or respectively<br />

a defined degree of conductivity<br />

To make sure that we permanently meet all the relevant<br />

demands of the industry, we have set up a special range of<br />

semiconductor products with stock items or short-term<br />

availability. Some of these products are produced in clean<br />

rooms. The dimensions and tolerances we offer for the<br />

tubes intended for the production of CMP rings are also<br />

not according to the general industry standards, but adapted<br />

according to the special demands towards closer finished<br />

ring sizes of the semiconductor industry.<br />

Additionally, <strong>Ensinger</strong> can provide full documentation and<br />

traceability on all materials. This is done by process control<br />

which is well proven in other sensitive industries and<br />

across all manufacturing types such as <strong>com</strong>pounding,<br />

stock shapes and <strong>com</strong>ponent production through injection<br />

moulding and machining.<br />

<strong>Ensinger</strong> is certified according to ISO 9001:2008 and has<br />

implemented a quality management system in line with<br />

international standards that is firmly rooted in our corporate<br />

procedures.<br />
