Product Overview
Acetone VLSI is a high-purity solvent specifically formulated for critical applications in semiconductor manufacturing and advanced laboratory processes. With a minimum purity of 99.9%, this VLSI-grade acetone ensures ultra-low particulate contamination and rapid evaporation without residue, making it indispensable for cleaning silicon wafers, photoresist removal, and delicate electronic components. The solvent’s low moisture content (<0.05%) prevents oxidation during sensitive procedures, while its consistent boiling point (56.5°C) guarantees uniform performance across batches. Packaged in leak-proof HDPE containers with tamper-evident seals, this acetone maintains its integrity during storage and transport. Its compatibility with most organic materials and metals (except certain plastics) allows versatile use in multi-step purification workflows. The solvent meets or exceeds SEMATECH and ASTM E1133 standards for electronic-grade solvents, ensuring reliability in high-precision environments where even trace impurities can compromise results.
FAQs
1. What is the difference between VLSI grade acetone and regular acetone?
VLSI grade acetone undergoes additional distillation and filtration to remove metallic ions, particles, and moisture that regular acetone contains. This makes it suitable for semiconductor applications where even ppb-level contaminants can affect performance.
2. Can this acetone be used with plastic containers or tubing?
Acetone dissolves most plastics including polystyrene, acrylic, and PVC. Use only with PTFE, glass, or HDPE containers and tubing for safe handling.
3. What is the typical shelf life of unopened VLSI grade acetone?
When stored in original sealed containers at room temperature away from direct sunlight, the shelf life is 24 months from the date of manufacture.
4. Does this acetone leave any residue after evaporation?
VLSI grade acetone is specifically processed to ensure complete evaporation without residue, with total non-volatile residue typically below 1 ppm.
5. How should I dispose of used acetone from lab processes?
Collect in approved solvent waste containers and dispose through licensed hazardous waste handlers according to local environmental regulations.
