  • Substrate cleaning processes through the use of solvents and systems
    Patent number: 8021490
    Abstract: A method for removing common contaminates or residues which include but are not limited to ionic residues, particulate residues and moisture from semiconductor wafers used in the manufacture of IC (integrated circuits), liquid crystal displays and flat panel displays. The process includes the use of certain esters or certain esters combined with particular co-solvents. The cleaning method may be utilized in a variety of cleaning processes or process steps and offers economic and performance advantages.

  • Optically brightened aqueous compositions
    Publication number: 20080064621
    Abstract: An aqueous composition that includes an optical brightener (e.g. a UV-fluorescent compound) and forms a coating when applied to an array of surfaces. The coating may be applied to polyester shrink wrap film making the film tamperproof when applied as packaging or over packaging closures. A method of making the aqueous composition as well as a method of applying the aqueous composition to a substrate or surface.
