Global demand for hexafluorobutadiene continues to grow rapidly; Jiayuan leads the green upgrade of high-end electronic gases ( Part 1 )

In recent years, the global semiconductor industry has accelerated its transformation towards high-end and green technologies. The continuous expansion of 3D NAND flash memory and advanced logic chip production capacity has driven a surge in demand for core etching materials. Hexafluorobutadiene (HFBD, molecular formula C₄F₆), as a new generation of environmentally friendly electronic-grade specialty gas, has seen its market popularity continue to rise. Changzhou Jiayuan Chemical Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Jiayuan") has been deeply involved in the fluorochemical field for many years. Leveraging its comprehensive industry chain layout and technological expertise, Jiayuan has continuously exerted its strength in the field of hexafluorobutadiene, becoming an important force in promoting the industrial application of this product and contributing to the green upgrading of the global semiconductor industry.

The core applications of hexafluorobutadiene (HFT) are focused on high aspect ratio etching processes for 3D NAND and advanced logic chips. It is an indispensable key material in advanced semiconductor manufacturing, and its performance directly affects chip yield and performance. Compared to traditional fluorinated etching gases, HFT not only possesses the core advantages of high etching rate and high selectivity, but also boasts excellent environmental performance—its Global Warming Potential (GWP) is only 290, and its atmospheric lifetime is only 1.9 days. It is currently the only fluorinated electronic etching gas that combines excellent etching performance with environmentally friendly characteristics, perfectly aligning with the global semiconductor industry's green and low-carbon development trend.

Leveraging its comprehensive fluorochemical industry chain, Jiayuan controls quality from the source of basic fluorochemical raw materials, gradually building a core technology system and industrialization capability for hexafluorobutadiene. Since focusing on developing its hexafluorobutadiene product portfolio in 2023, Jiayuan has continuously promoted product research and development and process optimization with its profound technological accumulation and global vision, committed to providing global semiconductor customers with stable, efficient, and environmentally friendly hexafluorobutadiene solutions, helping to break through the supply bottleneck of high-end electronic etching gases.
