Electronic chemicals are highly pure chemicals
like strippers, gases, acids, photo resists and so on, which are useful in
electronic applications like printed circuits boards (PCB), integrated circuits
(IC), flat screens, and semiconductor chips. For this reason, the electronic
chemical market follows the growth pattern of the electronic market and allied
industries like semiconductors.
The market is categorized based on type into
semiconductors, acids and solvents, printed circuit boards (PCB), CMP slurries,
gases and polymers. The electronics market saw a decline of over 20% due to the
economic slowdown in 2008. Lower consumer income and decreasing electronic
sales were the primary reasons for this sharp decline. Electronic chemicals are the key elements of
modern day electronic equipment and with the expanding electronic market; the
demand for electronic chemicals has seen a sharp rise.
Technological
innovation, which leads to development of newer materials like advanced photo
resists and k- dielectrics, is also contributing substantially to the market. North
America and Asia Pacific occupy a major chunk of the market share and with the
economies in Asia being boosted by China and India, the market is set to
witness a steady growth.
The growth is primarily expected in the
semiconductor and PCB sectors, and products like gases and acids have not shown
much signs of growth. The market for gases is expected to show a very moderate
growth, which would indirectly hamper the overall market. The major opportunity
lies in this segment, wherein the focus should be on increasing the application
areas for gases and acids and help the market grow at a better rate. Also by
improving chemical qualities, it would be easier to achieve lower cost and
assist in better integration in the current applications. Some of the key players
in this market include BASF, Bayer AG, Dow Chemicals, AkzoNobel N.V and others.
