Coating in the Semiconductor Industry
- Precision solutions for chip manufacturing
Challenges in Modern Semiconductor Production
The continuous miniaturization and increasing complexity of chips present the semiconductor industry with immense challenges. Highly integrated circuits are produced in clean rooms - air, chemical baths or furnaces must never be contaminated. The strictest purity requirements, handling of aggressive chemicals and the need for higher production performance require highly precise coating solutions for semiconductor production.

Specialized Coating Processes for the Semiconductor Industry
Chemical Protection Coatings
Chemical protection with E-CTFE, ETFE and PFA protects your equipment from aggressive etching chemicals and process media.
Electrically Conductive Coatings
In semiconductor manufacturing, antistatic and conductive coatings contribute to process safety – especially in explosion-hazardous areas or when handling flammable materials. They prevent electrostatic charging, reduce dust attraction and minimize electrical fields.
Through targeted modification, many polymers can be equipped with electrical conductivity – ideal for pipelines, transport containers, packaging and other components in ESD-critical zones.
Electrically Insulating Coatings
In sensitive semiconductor manufacturing processes, our electrically insulating coatings reliably protect against leakage currents and unwanted current discharge – even at high humidity and temperature.
Insulating high-performance polymers such as Rilsan, Halar® (ECTFE) or ETFE are used, which are known for their high dielectric strength and stable performance under demanding conditions.
Application Areas in Semiconductor Production
Our coatings for the semiconductor industry are used in the following critical areas:
- UPW systems (Ultrapure Water)
- Storage and process tanks for process media (sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, etc.)
