Press Release

Technavio Announces the Publication of its Research Report – Global Fab Material Market 2015-2019

Technavio recognizes the following companies as the key players in the Global Fab Material Market: Air Liquide, BASF, Dow Corning, DuPont, Hitachi Chemical, Kanto Chemicals and Linde

Other Prominent Vendors in the market are: Evergreen Semiconductor Materials, Guangdong Rongtai, Henkel and Honeywell Electronic Materials

Commenting on the report, an analyst from Technavio’s team said: “The global fab materials market is witnessing certain trends that are expected to contribute to the growth of the market during the forecast period. One such trend is, a shift toward the captive market. Companies are developing photomasks by in-house operations in order to get a competitive advantage from other vendors.”

According to the report, various drivers are contributing to the growth of the global fab materials market; the most important of these is the development of NEMS. The miniaturization of microelectromechanical systems is creating a need for more advanced photoresists and photoresists ancillaries. These advanced photoresists will experience new advancements in order to form specific patterns on miniature devices.

Further, the report states that one of the major challenges in the market is to overcome the defects of CMP. This process does not define the end point of the polishing process and therefore, the process needs to be repeated again, which takes time.
