Semitron® MPR1000 for the Semiconductor Industry
Semitron® MPR1000 is a new engineering material developed by Mitsuibishi Chemical Advanced Materials for semiconductor applications. MPR stands for maximum plasma resistance. It is intended for use in vacuum plasma chambers to replace ceramics and quartz for ICU production. Ceramics are more expensive and quartz is prone to break. It also performs better in this application than PEEK, PAI such as Torlon® or polyimide thermoplastics. For example MRP1000 has an increased life in plasma chambers of up to 25X in ozone than polyimides such as Vespel®.…
PEEK Custom Parts and PEEK Fasteners
PEEK custom parts and PEEK fasteners such as screws, hex heads, hex nuts, set screws, flat washers and threaded studs are used in a wide range of industries.These include semiconductor manufacturing equipment, oil and gas, telecommunications, medical equipment and medical parts for implantation in the human body. It is also used widely in the semiconductor equipment manufacturing industry, and the electronics and food processing industries. PEEK stands for polyetheretherketone.
Properties of Polyetheretherketone
Excellent chemical resistance
Excellent insulating properties (dielectric properties/nonconducting)
Low out-gassing
94 V-0 flammability rating
High purity
Excellent hydrolysis resistance.…
TORLON® Polyamide-imide
TORLON®, Polyamide-imide (PAI)
TORLON® is the Solvay brand name for polyamide-imide or PAI. It can be machined into custom parts, screws and other fasteners including hex nuts. set screws, hex head cap screws and threaded studs. Polyamide-imides demonstrate exceptional mechanical, thermal and chemical resistance properties making them well suited to severe environmental service.
High Heat Performance
Torlon®, polyamide-imide have exceptionally high heat performance with a continuous service temperature of 260°C or 500°F and are inherently flame resistant.…
