CONTACT AN EXPERTHigh performance fluoropolymers for semiconductor seals and gaskets
Making the smaller chips that power next-generation technologies, including 5G devices, requires more demanding manufacturing processes than ever before. This means harsher chemicals and hotter temperatures, which all adds greater wear and tear on equipment – especially seals and gaskets.
When used in semiconductor seals and gaskets, 3M™ Dyneon™ Perfluoroelastomers and Fluoroelastomers help resist damage from harsh process conditions, extending the life of semiconductor production equipment and reducing costly and potentially dangerous seal failures.
