Manufacturing semiconductors, microcircuits, and microchips requires extremely precise conditions to be kept in the production/processing area. Hygroscopic components are typically employed in semiconductor manufacturing or processing, making them extremely vulnerable to high humidity levels. Excessive moisture in the assembly area during the manufacture of semiconductors and integrated circuits negatively impacts the bonding process and raises faults. Circuit lines are covered with photosensitive polymer compounds called photoresists before being etched. They absorb moisture due to their hygroscopic nature, which causes the minuscule circuit wires to be cut or bridged, resulting in circuit failure.
