Company will highlight deep customer collaborations, reliable
supply, innovation and sustainability in the semiconductor
industry
WILMINGTON, Del.,
July 1,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- DuPont (NYSE: DD) proudly
announces its participation in SEMICON West, taking place
July 9-11, 2024, in San Francisco, California. At booth number
6148, the company will showcase the latest advancements in custom
parts from its renowned DuPont™ Kalrez®
perfluoroelastomer parts, further solidifying its commitment to
collaborative innovation with customers.
Kalrez® products are globally recognized for their
exceptional sealing capabilities in critical applications. At this
year's SEMICON West, DuPont will exhibit several game-changing
solutions, including:
- The Kalrez® Bonded Door Seal (BDS), specially
designed for use in gate valves and slit valve doors for
semiconductor manufacturing equipment, enabling easy installation
and low particle generation, enhancing processes such as plasma
etching, CVD, and PVD. By allowing for easy detachment from the
metal assembly and enabling re-use of the metal components, the
newly designed BDS helps reduce waste without sacrificing
performance.
- Low permeation seals from the DuPont™ Kalrez®
perfluoroelastomer series, crafted for high-temperature and
high-vacuum uses. Operating efficiently up to 300C, their unique
multi-layer seal design enables minimal gas permeation,
including—but not limited to—oxygen gas.
- An innovative bonding method developed by DuPont's technology
team, allowing Kalrez® components to be fused with other
functional materials, creating unique, composite-structured
Kalrez® parts.
DuPont's extensive portfolio of Kalrez®
perfluoroelastomer parts includes O-rings, custom-designed
components, and bonded parts integrated with metals, glass,
ceramics, and fibers. These composite structures are increasingly
important in meeting the growing demands of the
semiconductor and industrial manufacturing
industries.
This year also marks a special milestone for Kalrez®
as the brand celebrates its 50th anniversary. For five decades,
Kalrez® has been a leader in the industry, providing
sealing solutions for mission-critical applications across the
globe.
"Marking the 50th anniversary of Kalrez®, we are
reminded of our legacy of innovation and our steadfast commitment
to delivering ultra-high-performance sealing solutions," said
Brian Ammons, Global Business
General Manager of Industrial Polymers, DuPont Electronics &
Industrial. "SEMICON West is an ideal platform to showcase our
latest breakthroughs, foster deeper collaborations, and
explore new opportunities for customized solutions that enable
faster, more differentiated growth."
In another significant development, in November 2023, DuPont announced the opening of
its new Kalrez® manufacturing facility in Newark, Delaware. This expansion in
capacity underscores the company's commitment to the highest
quality, reliability, and consistency in the supply of
Kalrez® O-rings, catering to the rapidly growing demand
in both the semiconductor and industrial market segments. This new
facility significantly boosts production capacity, helping meet the
increasing demand for Kalrez® products and further
strengthening DuPont's supply capability.
At this year's SEMICON West event, DuPont is also proud to
sponsor the Sustainability Reception at the Sustainability Pavilion
on Tuesday, July 9, and will host
tours of DuPont's Silicon Valley Technology Center in nearby
Sunnyvale, California on
Friday, July 12. Registration for the
tours is available for FLEX pass holders.
SEMICON West attendees are invited to visit booth 6148 to
explore how DuPont's latest sealing solutions can elevate
performance in semiconductor and electronics applications,
embodying DuPont's commitment to collaborative customer
partnerships and industry stability.
