Product Description

Eastman EastaPure™ Ethyl Acetate solvent is a viscosity reducer for resins used in photoresist formulations. Ethyl Acetate can also be used as a primary photoresist solvent and is compatible with many resist polymers. High-purity (low-trace metals) solvents are required to make acceptable semiconductor chips, and special handling and storage procedures are used to maintain high purity.

The chemical substances for this product are listed as Inert Ingredients Permitted for Use in Nonfood Use Pesticide Products, and in Food Use Pesticide Products with limitations, under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA).
