Testing and Analysis

Our R&D centers are equipped with world-class material testing and analytical laboratories to ensure that our materials meet the requirements of your application’s environment.

We test materials to:

• Confirm the material compatibility with application environments
• Ensure robust and long-lasting materials
• Continuously expand our portfolio of material compounds to meet the changing needs of the semiconductor industry
• Comply to relevant standards

Our R&D centers are equipped with world class material testing and analytical laboratories to ensure that our materials are capable of performing in a wide range of environments.

Capabilities include:

• Plasma exposure testing in various process gases
• Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) for compositional analysis
• Compression set and Compression Stress Relaxation testing up to +300 °C
• Stiction testing on a variety of surfaces
• Mechanical testing
• Thermal analysis
• Fluid compatibility
• Microscopy
• Tribological testing

Test facilities support recommendations of materials for customer applications and development of new materials, as well as characterization of materials for Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and failure analysis.
