Tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) 25% in methanol is a solution commonly used in microfabrication and chemical synthesis. It acts as a basic solvent, particularly in the development of acidic photoresists during photolithography and is also effective at stripping photoresist. This solution is a liquid with a pale yellow color and is known for its strong alkaline properties. In addition to its role in microfabrication, TMAH in methanol is also used in the synthesis of materials like zirconium oxide. 
 

Industrial Uses

1. Performance Chemicals

  • Photolithography: TMAH is a crucial ingredient in the development and stripping of acidic photoresists used in the fabrication of microchips. 
  • Silicon Etching: It is used as an anisotropic etchant for silicon, meaning it etches silicon in a specific crystallographic direction, which is essential for creating precise patterns on silicon wafers.
