Semi-grade PP Depth Filter

Product ID: semi-grade-pp-depth-filter|Semi-grade PP

High-end PP depth filter designed specifically for semiconductor chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) processes. Using a unique 3D gradient structure and nanofiber technology, it can accurately intercept large agglomerated particles (Agglomerates) that cause scratches, while allowing effective abrasive particles to pass through, maintaining the Slurry particle size distribution unchanged. Providing 70nm to 1.0µm accuracy, it is the best solution to optimize CMP yield and reduce costs.

Filter media / membrane
Patented 3-D composite graded polypropylene depth media. The outer (upstream) section is continuous melt-blown microfibre, the inner (downstream) section is wound nanofibre, with pore size converging continuously between them to form a large-gradient staged structure.
Support & drainage layers
Polypropylene support layer; no surfactants and no binders anywhere in the process, to avoid organic extractables
Cage, core & end caps
Polypropylene core and end caps — all-polypropylene, metal-free

Removal efficiency
The ultra-fine inner fibre layer gives high retention of defect-causing particles while allowing the desired abrasive through; the large gradient optimises efficiency and service life together rather than trading one for the other.

Wetting & flushing
The polypropylene media is hydrophobic — flush and vent with process liquid or UPW before start-up; UPW pre-wet packing can be specified for direct installation.
Extractables & cleanliness
Electronic-grade cleanliness (code E) selectable: produced and packed in a cleanroom and rinsed with UPW until resistivity recovers.
Packaging
Dry packed; UPW pre-wet packed
Regulatory & validation
Manufactured, tested and packaged in a cleanroom

Note: actual compatibility and service life depend on chemical concentration, temperature, flow, differential pressure, upstream contamination load and housing design. Validate under your real process conditions.

Where it fits

Process position.The workhorse for CMP slurry filtration. The continuously graded structure captures the large, defect-causing particles without altering the mean particle size and distribution set by the slurry manufacturer. It can sit upstream of point-of-use filters to extend their life, or serve as the final barrier before slurry distribution.

Continuously graded structure

Key characteristics

Key features.Media density increases continuously from outside in, so large particles are captured in the outer layers and fine particles only in the inner. Contaminant is distributed through the full media thickness rather than piling on the surface, giving far higher dirt-holding than surface filtration at the same rating.

Two constructions

Melt-blown depth (code D) gives the highest dirt-holding; rolled (code R) gives the highest retention efficiency and lower pressure drop. Trial both and decide on measured scratch counts and change-out intervals.

The widest retention range

Full coverage from 50nm to 150µm puts everything from the finest point-of-use duty to the coarsest upstream interception on one material platform, simplifying inventory and qualification.

Slurry compatibility

All-PP construction is compatible with most slurries including STI, tungsten and copper. Flushed with ultrapure water before shipment for low particle shedding.

If ΔP is climbing too fast or life is falling short, consider JY-CM32 (re-engineered fiber gradation, higher dirt-holding) or JY-CM61 (dual-layer pleated/rolled, giving area and retention together).
What process is this depth filter for?
It is designed for semiconductor chemical mechanical planarization (CMP), filtering CMP slurry to capture the large agglomerates that cause wafer scratches while letting active abrasive particles pass through.
Does it change the slurry PSD?
No. Its 3D gradient structure and nano-fiber technology capture only large agglomerates while allowing active abrasives through, keeping the slurry particle size distribution unchanged.
What filtration ratings are available?
Ratings range from 70nm to 1.0µm, so you can match the grade to your CMP slurry characteristics and yield requirements.
