Electronic Wet Chemicals

High purity wet chemicals of outstanding quality

Solvay Electronic Wet Chemicals has been manufacturing ultra high purity wet chemicals for more than four decades. We pride ourselves to count the world's leading IC manufacturers among our customers. Solvay Electronic Wet Chemicals has been continuously awarded with a number of prizes for excellent quality and outstanding reliability of supply.

Our offer comprises high purity wet chemicals such as Hydrogen Peroxide and Hydrofluoric Acid (HF), sourced from our plants in China, Thailand, Germany, and the United States. Building on our worldwide presence, we are closer than ever to our customers, providing immediate support and security of supply.

Solvay also specializes in the production of ultra-high-purity HF tailored for the rigorous demands of Photovoltaic (PV) applications. We deliver HF with purity levels exceeding <10 parts per billion (ppb). 

As an essential component in the wet-processing stages of PV cell production, Solvay’s HF ensures maximum precision during critical steps such as wet cleaning, chemical etching, and surface texturing. Our chemical solutions are engineered to integrate seamlessly with other high-purity process chemicals to optimize manufacturing yields and solar cell efficiency.

Sustainable Fluoride Recovery and Industrial Circularity

The global semiconductor and PV industries face a mounting challenge regarding the disposal of Fluorine-based waste. This evolving regulatory environment requires a shift from disposal-based models to innovative Fluoride recovery solutions. By recovering Fluorine rather than treating it as waste, manufacturers can overcome wastewater management hurdles while significantly enhancing their environmental and sustainability profiles.
 

Expert partnership in Fluoride Waste Management

Transitioning to a circular model provides substantial economic benefits, including a reduction in capital expenditure for disposal equipment and lower overall material costs. With over 20 years of experience, we excel at designing customized reprocessing solutions and industrializing them into routine, efficient operations. Solvay is leveraging this multi-decade expertise to pioneer recovery efforts, helping our partners achieve industrial circularity and long-term regulatory compliance.
