Chemical Mechanical Planarization (CMP) Slurry Industry Overview
The chemical mechanical planarization market is semi-consolidated with the presence of major players like Applied Materials Inc., Entegris Inc., Ebara Corporation, Lapmaster Wolters GmbH, and Dupont De Nemours Inc. Players in the market are adopting strategies such as partnerships and acquisitions to enhance their product offerings and gain sustainable competitive advantage.
- May 2024: DuPont unveiled a strategic initiative to divide itself into three separate entities, each to be publicly traded. The plan entails executing tax-free separations of its Electronics and Water divisions, with the newly formed 'New DuPont' emerging as a diversified industrial player. Post separation, electronics, and water will operate as independent entities, poised to leverage enhanced focus and agility within their sectors. DuPont anticipates that all three companies will boast robust balance sheets, enticing financial standings, and promising growth prospects. The company aims to finalize these separations within the next 18 to 24 months.
- December 2023:- Entegris Inc. unveiled its Korea Technology Center at the Hanyang University ERICA campus in Ansan-si, Gyeonggi-do. The center, designed as a focal point, aims to streamline Entegris' diverse capabilities under one roof. This setup is strategically positioned to foster deeper collaboration with clients involved in technologies like advanced logic, DRAM, and 3D NAND semiconductors. Specifically, the center will serve as a knowledge hub for deposition, chemical mechanical planarization (CMP), and advanced wet etch processes. It will also house sophisticated analytical tools, bolstering Entegris' ability to cater to its Korean clientele.
