Ammonium Hydroxide (Electronic Grade)
NH₄OH · CAS 1336-21-6
Ammonium Hydroxide (Electronic Grade) is evaluated for rca sc-1 (apm) particle & organic removal and other controlled wet processes. Concentration, impurity profile, container compatibility and the delivery path to point of use should be agreed before qualification.

Product overview
A product route built around the application
Ammonium Hydroxide is considered for processes that need a consistent material, controlled critical impurities and a supply format that can move from qualification to routine use. The grade should be selected against the actual process—not a generic purity claim.
Controlled attributes
Focus testing on the impurities and performance risks that matter.
Supply planning
Align sample, production pack, forecast and document route early.
Before you specify
A better enquiry starts with four answers
A higher grade is not automatically the better choice. The useful option fits the process, analytical method, packaging route and qualification plan without adding controls the application does not need.
01
Where in the process does the chemical contact the wafer, substrate or tool?
02
Which metals, particles, anions, water or residue limits are truly critical?
03
What is the current qualified specification or incumbent baseline?
04
How will the product be sampled, connected, filtered and stored on site?
Specification data
Compare the listed grade columns
This table is an indicative product overview for initial screening. Confirm the current controlled specification, test methods, reporting limits and available lot documentation before qualification or purchase.
| Parameter | Test method | Unit | G4 | G5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Assay (NH₃) | Titration | % | 28.0–30.0 | 28.0–30.0 |
| Total Metals | ICP-MS | ppb ea. | ≤0.5 | <0.1 |
| Fe (Iron) | ICP-MS | ppb | ≤0.2 | <0.05 |
| Cu (Copper) | ICP-MS | ppb | ≤0.1 | <0.05 |
| Cl⁻ (Chloride) | IC | ppb | ≤50 | ≤10 |
| Particles ≥0.5μm | LPC | ct/mL | ≤10 | ≤5 |
Website values do not replace a signed sales specification. The agreed specification and lot-specific Certificate of Analysis govern supplied material.
Electronic grade context
Use the grade scale as a first comparison
SEMI C1 describes liquid-chemical grades and analytical procedures. A grade name helps organise a discussion; your process specification still decides which limits and methods are acceptable.

Representative application cases
A practical evidence route for Ammonium Hydroxide
These are illustrative composite qualification scenarios, not named customer claims. Exact methods, limits and acceptance decisions belong to the customer’s controlled process.
Process-material second source
A manufacturer evaluates Ammonium Hydroxide (Electronic Grade) against the material attributes that influence its reaction, formulation, extraction or cleaning result.
Evidence route
Specification comparison is followed by a representative trial, production-pack review and approval of the document route.
Pack and scale transition
A qualified small pack of Ammonium Hydroxide (Electronic Grade) is considered for drum, IBC or another production presentation.
Evidence route
Container compatibility, transfer materials, sampling and receiving controls are reviewed before the pack route changes.
Manufacturing advantage
A controlled route from purification to final filling
The supply route for Ammonium Hydroxide connects incoming-material review, product-specific treatment, controlled transfer, testing, filling and lot documentation. Exact equipment and controls depend on the qualified product and grade.
Purification
Product-specific separation or treatment route.
Filtration
Compatible filtration and controlled transfer.
Testing
Release against the agreed specification.
Clean filling
Pack, closure and lot identification review.
