Semiconductor hydrogen peroxide is in strong demand in the semiconductor field and the process of localization in the Chinese market is accelerating

​​​Semiconductor hydrogen peroxide, also known as semiconductor-grade hydrogen peroxide and electronic-grade hydrogen peroxide, refers to a cleaning agent that is mixed with hydrogen peroxide and pure water and is used in the semiconductor manufacturing process. As a wet electronic chemical, semiconductor hydrogen peroxide has the characteristics of high chemical activity and low surface tension. It can effectively remove contaminants on the surface of semiconductors. It is used as end products such as solar silicon wafers, display panels, and very large-scale integrated circuits.

The main raw materials of semiconductor hydrogen peroxide are hydrogen peroxide and pure water. Hydrogen peroxide, also known as hydrogen peroxide, is an important bleaching agent, oxidant and disinfectant, widely used in medical and health, chemical industry, electronic and electrical fields. my country is a major producer and consumer of hydrogen peroxide. In 2022, our country’s hydrogen peroxide production capacity will reach nearly 20 million tons. However, at present, with the increasingly strong application demand, my country’s hydrogen peroxide market is in short supply, resulting in increasing imports. Affected by factors such as insufficient supply of raw materials, the market price of semiconductor hydrogen peroxide in my country has been running at a high level for a long time.

Semiconductor hydrogen peroxide is a wet electronic chemical. Its particle number, impurity ion content and purity play a decisive role in the performance and quality of semiconductors. In recent years, with the accelerated development of downstream industries, the market demand for wet electronic chemicals has continued to grow. In 2022, my country’s wet electronic chemicals market will reach 15.46 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 13.6%. Benefiting from the improved prosperity of the wet electronic chemicals industry, my country’s semiconductor hydrogen peroxide market space is expected to be further expanded.

According to the “2023-2028 China Semiconductor Hydrogen Peroxide Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report released by the Industrial Research Center, solar energy Batteries, display panels and integrated circuits are the largest demand ends for semiconductor hydrogen peroxide. As the core of the information technology industry, integrated circuits are widely used in many fields such as household appliances, industry, and agriculture. According to data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, my country’s integrated circuit output will reach 324.19 billion units in 2022. In the future, as the country’s emphasis on the semiconductor industry continues to increase, my country’s semiconductor hydrogen peroxide market demand will further grow.

In the early stages of industry development, my country’s semiconductor hydrogen peroxide was highly dependent on imports due to factors such as high technical barriers. In recent years, with the continuous improvement of independent research and development capabilities of local enterprises, the localization process of my country’s semiconductor hydrogen peroxide market has accelerated. Jingrui Shares, Xinzhoubang, Huihuang Technology, Yueyang Linzhi, etc. are the main participants in my country’s semiconductor hydrogen peroxide market.

          Industry analysts said that benefiting from the accelerated development of the semiconductor industry, my country’s semiconductor hydrogen peroxide market demand is increasingly strong as an important semiconductor cleaning agent. After years of experience accumulation, the maturity of my country’s semiconductor hydrogen peroxide technology has continued to improve, and the market localization process has accelerated. However, currently, due to factors such as insufficient supply of raw materials, the market price of semiconductor hydrogen peroxide in my country is relatively high, and local companies urgently need to increase investment in research and development to reduce their production costs.
