A Wafer Protective Film is a thin sheet of polymer material that is used to protect semiconductor wafers from scratches, contamination and other damage. The film helps to ensure the quality of the wafers and extend their useful life.
UV Curing Type:
UV curing type is a new technology that has evolved from the thin-film coating process. It utilizes UV light to cure (solidify) the coating on any material or surface, including glass, silicon wafers and other materials used in semiconductors and flat panel displays.
Non-UV Curing Type:
Non-UV curing type is used in the manufacturing of wafer protective films. The major application includes packaging of semiconductor devices such as LEDs, OLEDs, and QLEDs along with flat panel displays. These non-uv curing films are also used for protecting printed circuit boards (PCBs) from moisture, oxidation & corrosion and other chemical attacks.
The market for non-uv curing type was estimated to be USD 1.10 billion in 2016.
Application Insights:
The others application segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2017 and is projected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. Other substrates include BGA, CSP, CPE Wafers and PCBs. The demand for such substrates is expected to increase as they are used in a variety of applications including mobile phones, tablets, laptops/notebooks etc. Silicon wafer protective films are also used in this application segment as they offer high protection against scratches & damages caused by saw blades during cutting operations on silicon wafer or GaAs substrates.
The silicon wafer protective film market has witnessed tremendous growth owing to its extensive usage in semiconductor manufacturing industry across various regions including North America, Europe Asia Pacific.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. The growth of the region can be attributed to growing demand for advanced semiconductor devices and increasing adoption of 3D-stacked ICs. Moreover, technological advancements such as multi-layer ceramic films used for protection against moisture, heat, and light are expected to drive product demand over the forecast period.
The Asia Pacific is projected to witness significant growth over the next eight years owing to rising investments in R&D activities by various governments across countries such as China, India Japan South Korea Taiwan Province of China Philippines Indonesia Thailand Malaysia Singapore Sri Lanka Vietnam Myanmar Australia Bangladesh Pakistan Hong Kong & Macau New Zealand and others.
