PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION FOR POLYMER COMPONENTS USED

IN ULTRAPURE WATER AND LIQUID CHEMICAL DISTRIBUTION

SYSTEMS

This specification was technically approved by the Global Facilities Committee and is the direct

responsibility of the North American Facilities Committee. Current edition approved by the North American

Regional Standards Committee on October 18, 2000. Initially available on www.semi.org November 2000;

to be published March 2001. Originally published October 2000.

NOTE: This specification is considered provisional since it

lacks a complete set of requirements for particles in Table 2

as well as particle test methods for components as noted in

Table 1. At the time of publication, only a small database of

values existed for PFA valves. Test methodologies will be

generated for components and this document will be re-

balloted at a later date.

1 Purpose

1.1 This document specifies minimum performance

requirements for ultrahigh purity (UHP) polymer

components used throughout semiconductor ultrapure

water and liquid chemical distribution systems

including bulk supply, facility distribution, and process

equipment applications.

2 Scope

2.1 Polymer component purity and mechanical

specifications are included in this standard along with

references for qualification test methods. Certification,

traceability, and packaging requirements are also

included.

Purity Requirements:

• Particle Contribution

• Ionic Contamination

• Metallic Contamination

• Total Organic Carbon Contamination

• Surface Roughness

Mechanical Requirements:

• Temperature/Pressure Rating

• Chemical Resistance Rating

• Reliability

2.2 Polymer piping system compo nents consisting of

but not limited to the items shown in Table 1 are

designed to contain and supply the following types of

liquid chemicals:

• Acids, bases and oxidizers

• Aqueous salt solutions

• Ultrapure Water (UPW)

NOTE 1: A method for this requirement is being developed. At the time of publication, only a small database of values existed for PFA valves.

As the database encompasses more polymer materials, limits will be set for this parameter. Then, this document will be re-balloted.

2.3 Unless purchased separately, p olymer components

constructed of sub-pieces, such as o-rings, gaskets, and

diaphragms, must meet the requirements of this

document at the functional component level, not as

individual sub-pieces. For example an o-ring in a union

must not degrade the overall quality of the union such

that it fails to meet the requirements of this document.

Components and spare parts purchased separately, such

as gaskets and O-rings, must meet this standard, if

applicable.

2.4 This document and associated tests specify wetted

stream performance requirements for polymer

components in an as supplied, native state and reflect

the current capabilities of the manufacturers of

polymer components.

2.5 Leach out tests and associated requirements

referenced within this document provide values from

static, not dynamic, conditions. To determine the

corresponding concentration that may result in a flow-

ing dynamic stream, please see the Related Information

Section on Theoretical Dynamic Concentration (TDC)

located at the end of this document.

2.6 Polymer Materials

2.6.1 It is the intent of this specification to focus

component qualification on performance. However, a

discussion of recommended materials may benefit the

reader and is therefore included.

2.6.2 Care must be taken to ensure t hat the materials

are compatible with the liquid streams (as shown in

Section 2.2) for long term applications. Additionally, it

is important that the materials used be compatible with

the application temperature and/or methods for bacterial

reduction such as ozone, UV light and/or hydrogen

peroxide.

2.6.3 The requirements of this speci fication often

mandate the use of existing materials of choice, such as

high purity grades of perfluoroalkoxy (PFA),

polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), and polyvinylidene

fluoride (PVDF). However, unique design specifica-

tions or new materials may result in instances where

significant efficiencies may be achieved while

maintaining substantially equivalent performance with

regard to this specification. These scenarios could

result in the use of new or existing materials such as

ethylenechlorotrifluoroethylene (ECTFE), polyether-

etherketone (PEEK), polypropylene (PP), acetal resin

(such as Delrin®™

, Celcon®™

and others),

polyvinyl chloride (PVC), perfluoromethylether-based

perfluoroalkoxy (MFA), etc.

Celanese.

2.6.4 Due to purity and traceability i ssues, reprocessed

or regrind material must not be used.

2.7 This standard does not purport to address safety

issues, if any, associated with its use. It is the

responsibility of the users of this standard to establish

appropriate safety and health practices and determine

the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

3 Limitations

3.1 This document applies solely to polymer

components. Performance specifications for

subassemblies or bulk distribution systems may be

found in other SEMI standards (see Related Documents

Section 12.6).

3.2 This document does not includ e specifications for

pumps, storage tanks, ion exchange resin tanks, drums,

day tanks, pressure vessels, lined stainless steel

products, filters, UV sterilization systems, reverse

osmosis systems and ancillary equipment, sensors,

monitors, or ultra-filtration equipment.

3.3 Organic liquids, such as isopro pyl alcohol and

methyl alcohol, are typically in contact with stainless

steel or other non-polymeric components. The polymer

components described within this document are NOT

intended for use with such organic liquids.

3.4 Polymer components describe d within this

document are intended for use in UHP service only.

Their specified performance requirements may exceed

the needs of components used in drainage and other

lesser quality liquids.

3.5 This standard is not intended to address design or

materials issues related to safety which are addressed

elsewhere in the SEMI guidelines (see SEMI S2).

3.6 The tests referenced in this document are designed

to assess contamination from the polymer components

in an as received state. Assembly steps, such as

welding and cleaning, may actually add some

contaminants. The effects of the assembly are beyond

the scope of this document, but should be considered by

the supplier and/or user (see SEMI E49.7).

3.7 Leach out values listed in Tables 3, 4 and 5 reflect

testing in UPW for polymer component comparison

purposes. The relative leach out performance of

polymer components in actual use with other chemicals

(e.g. acids and bases) cannot be directly derived by

using the UPW data. It is incumbent upon the user to

determine if a component is suitable for use based on

these requirements (see Section 2.6.2).

3.8 This document is not intended to supersede

international, national or local codes, regulations, and

laws. Each should be consulted to ensure that the
