Japan: 14 types of semiconductor materials: 50% of market share

ーThere were so many! Core material of Japanー

Chinese portal site Sina Net:

Japan is not just a photoresist
So many semiconductor core materials,
Dominates with a high global share.
The above article was published in Sina Net.

3 semiconductor materials:

In 2019, the Japanese government enforced “Restrictions on exports of three semiconductor materials such as photoresists to South Korea.”

Introduced that the world has “became more aware of Japan’s position in the photoresist field.”

Photoresist market share:

At the moment, the global photoresist market share is

JSR,
Tokyo Ohka Kogyo,
Sumitomo Chemical,
Shin-Etsu Chemical,

it was almost occupied by Japanese companies.

19 types of semiconductor materials:

And Japan, the world’s largest exporter of semiconductor materials.

“Photoresists are not the only semiconductor materials that maintain an absolute position,” It said.

Of the 19 types of materials required for manufacturing semiconductor chips

Silicon wafer,
Synthetic quartz wafer,
Photomask,
Protective coating,
Ceramic substrate,
Plastic substrate,
Sealing material, etc.

“It boasts a market share of more than 50% with 14 types of materials,” It said.

Major semiconductor materials companies:

Shin-Etsu Chemical
It is the world’s largest supplier of silicon wafers and has a 27% share of the global market.

Toppan printing
It is the world’s largest manufacturer of photomasks and has a global market share of over 30%.

JSR
JSR boasts the world’s largest share of 40% of argon fluoride photoresist in the world.

The above three companies were taken up.
