Chemical companies in India are making significant progress in establishing a comprehensive ecosystem for semiconductor manufacturing, which aligns with the nation's ambition to become a global leader in advanced technology industries, according to Bastion Research's findings, cited by ANI.
The semiconductor manufacturing process necessitates various ultra-high-purity chemicals, essential for wafer fabrication procedures including etching and cleaning operations.
As India progresses with its semiconductor infrastructure development, encompassing fabrication units and OSAT facilities, establishing a dependable domestic chemical supply chain has become crucial.
Indian chemical manufacturers are positioning themselves as essential contributors to the semiconductor supply chain infrastructure, supporting the country's movement towards semiconductor manufacturing independence.
Historically, India has depended on Japanese and American imports for these specialist chemicals, according to the report.
The chemical enterprises are now advancing in semiconductor-grade material production, acknowledging the strategic importance of domestic manufacturing capabilities.
Tata Chemicals is reportedly enhancing its production capacity for high-purity chemicals, specifically targeting semiconductor fab cleaning and etching processes.
Deepak Nitrite, a well-known, speciality chemicals manufacturer, produces essential etching and cleaning chemicals crucial for semiconductor wafer fabrication. These products are vital for maintaining the precision standards required in chip production.
These developments complement India's ongoing progress in ATMP and OSAT facilities, as noted in the report.
