Global Photoresist Market: Overview

Photoresist chemicals are used in the production of sub-µm and µm-structures. They are mainly consumed in the microelectronics industry. When exposed to ultraviolet light, these chemicals change their chemical structure. This distinctive property makes them ideal for photoengraving and photolithography processes. These processes are commonly used in the manufacturing of semiconductors. There are two basic classifications of photoresist chemicals; positive photoresist chemicals and negative photoresist chemicals. Photoresist chemical is an important component for making semiconductor chips and circuit boards with high performance.
