Global ArF and KrF Photoresist Resin Supply, Demand and Key Producers, 2026-2032
Description
The global ArF and KrF Photoresist Resin market size is expected to reach $ 787 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 6.1% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).
Photoresist (PR) is a chemical that changes properties when exposed to certain wavelengths of light to form desired patterns of coating on substrate surfaces. PR serves as key material for the photolithography of semiconductor circuits in the manufacturing process. Photoresist Raw Materials, include photoresist polymers/resins, photoresist photoinitiator (PAC, PAG), Photoresist Solvent and Photoresist Additives.
Semiconductor photoresist polymers (photoresist resin) are custom-made products tailored to the specific requirements of photoresist customers. They are characterized by their low degree of substitutability, as their properties are influenced by factors such as structure, molecular weight, composition, manufacturing methods, production equipment operating conditions, and contaminants.
