Kulpsville, PA (May 2006)--Advances in semiconductor processes and equipment have raised the bar for seals situated in aggressive dry plasma environments and higher processing temperatures. Greene, Tweed's newest compound, Chemraz® 644, is an advanced perfluoroelastomer developed specifically to meet the evolving needs of the semiconductor industry for enhanced plasma resistance and minimal particulation, resulting in less downtime and higher wafer processing yields.
Recommended for both static and dynamic oxide etch wafer processing applications, Chemraz 644 remains stable at service temperatures up to 280°C, with excursions to 300°C. This material was developed to provide increased reliability in harsher processing environments. It is the ideal choice for applications with low sealing forces such as KF fitting seals, slit valve seals, chamber seals, gas inlet seals, lid seals, endpoint windows, etc.
