SEMI C46-0699
GUIDELINE FOR 25% TETRAMETHYLAMMONIUM HYDROXIDE
This guideline was technically approved by the Global Process Chemicals Committee and is the direct
responsibility of the North American Process Chemicals Committee. Current edition approved by the North
American Regional Standards Committee on April 23, 1999. Initially available on SEMI OnLine May 1999;
to be published June 1999. This document replaces SEMI C7.14 in its entirety. Originally published in
1991.
1 Purpose
1.1 The purpose of this document is to standardize
requirements for 25% tetramethylammonium hydroxide
used in the semiconductor industry and testing
procedures to support those standards. Test methods
have been shown to give statistically valid results. This
document also provides guidelines for grades of 25%
tetramethylammonium hydroxide for which a need has
been identified. In the case of the guidelines, the test
methods may not have been statistically validated yet.
2 Scope
2.1 The scope of this document is all grades of 25%
tetramethylammonium hydroxide used in the
semiconductor industry.
3 Limitations
3.1 None.
4 Referenced Documents
4.1 None.
5 Terminology
5.1 None.
6 Physical Property (for information only)
Not applicable.
7 Requirements
7.1 The requirements for 25% tetramethylammonium
hydroxide for Tier A are listed in Table 1.
8 Grade 1 Procedures
8.1 This section does not apply to this chemical.
9 Grade 2 Procedures
9.1 This section does not apply to this chemical.
10 Grade 3 Procedures
10.1 This section does not apply to this chemical.
11 Grade 4 Procedures
11.1 This section does not apply to this chemical.
12 Grade 5 Procedures
12.1 This section does not apply to this chemical.
13 VLSI Grade Procedures
13.1 This section does not apply to this chemical.
14 Tier A Procedures
14.1 Standardized test methods are being developed
for all parameters at the purity levels indicated. Until
standardized test methods are published, test
methodology shall be determined by user and producer.
The Process Chemicals Committee considers a test
method to be valid only if there is a documented
recovery study showing a recovery of 75 - 125%.
Recovery is for a known sample spike at 50% of the
specified level.
15 Tier B Procedures
15.1 This section does not apply to this chemical.
16 Tier C Procedures
16.1 This section does not apply to this chemical.
17 Tier D Procedures
17.1 This section does not apply to this chemical.
