Silicon Wafers

Integrated circuits are made up of silicon wafers, which form the heart of most of today’s electronic devices. With increased demand comes an increased need for high-performance filtration and dissolved gas control in silicon wafer manufacturing. Solventum filtration solutions help silicon wafer manufacturers meet their process efficiency goals as well as the strict quality requirements of their electronics and semiconductor manufacturing customers.

Lithium-ion batteries 

The demand for lithium-ion batteries is high and expected to keep growing. Virtually all battery-powered technologies use them, and the applications keep multiplying. A future with lighter, longer lasting and more reliable batteries will need better, more efficient contamination control. Solventum’s filtration products improve the manufacturing process of lithium-ion batteries. Proper filter selection is required to remove particulate contaminants and gels from solvents, water and the high viscosity slurries used to form the electrodes. Filters are also needed to remove particle contamination during the electrolyte filling process.

Photovoltaics 

In parallel with the growing demand for renewable energy is the growing need to use resources like water sustainably. You need to keep pace with high-quality PV cell production using water to ensure all damaging particles are removed while also maintaining responsible use of that precious resource. Solventum filters eliminate impurities in the chemical baths that degrade the PV surface’s electrical properties. Solventum filtration products help achieve contamination control for chemical, gas and water applications such as recirculating baths, single pass systems, high velocity jet spray systems, mechanical scrubbing systems and quick dump rinse systems.

Printed wire boards 

Wire board manufacturing involves a complex precision process that is subject to contamination at every step. Any inadequacy in the filtration system could contaminate the manufacturing process and the product. And that can affect the short- and long-term performance of your circuit boards. Solventum filtration solutions can help ensure that your wire board manufacturing will meet your growing performance needs.

Displays 

Edge beveling is an important step in your display manufacturing process. Not treating glass edges after a cut leaves them sharp and makes the glass vulnerable to damage. Smoothing the edges with abrasives creates particles that need to be removed from the process. Solventum has the filtration and dissolved gas control solutions you need to help remove these harmful particles created during the edge beveling process.
