====== Applications ====== Die cleaning ====== Suppliers ====== Hardware store is fine for general rinsing but tends not to be optical quality when preparing a sample for imaging. This is usually seen as streaks or small particles on the die. DudaDiesel sells acetone that is sufficiently pure to clean dies for imaging (XXX: much better than hardware store but not clean enough. Rinse with distilled water) ====== Purity ====== Some problems during cleaning found traced to non-volatile residue. Question: what does it take to get acetone with very low non-volatile residue for cleaning? Alternatively, can I get another volatile compound, say IPA, that leaves less volatile residue? ^ Source ^ Purity >= ^ Non-volatile residue <= ^ CoA ^ $/L ^ Notes ^ | [[http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/product/sial/439126?lang=en®ion=US|Sigma Aldrich: CHROMASOLV®, for HPLC, ≥99.9%]] | 99.9 | 0.0002% (2 ppm) | N | 36.25 (4L) | | [[http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/product/aldrich/40289?lang=en®ion=US| Sigma Aldrich: semiconductor grade VLSI PURANAL™ (Honeywell 17617) ]] | N/A | N/A | On request | | | [[https://us.vwr.com/store/catalog/product.jsp?product_id=7486215|VWR: Acetone, Semiconductor Grade, 99.5%]] | 99.5 | 5 ppm | N | 17.93 (4L) | | [[https://obi2.vwrsp.com/store/catalog/product.jsp?product_id=4533692|VWR: Acetone High Purity]] | 99.8 | 3.0mg/L max | [[https://media.vwr.com/stibo/hi_res/10646544.pdf|Y]] | 138.30 (1L) | | | [[http://www.polysciences.com/Catalog/Department/Product/98/categoryid--52/productid--566/|Polysciences: Acetone, Glass Distilled, 99.7%]] | 99.7 | N/A | N | | | [[http://www.polysciences.com/Catalog/Department/Product/98/categoryid--52/productid--146/|Polysciences: Acetone, 99.5% - EM grade]] | 99.5 | N/A | N | | | [[https://us.vwr.com/store/catalog/product.jsp?product_id=4539168|OmniSolv® Acetone]] | 99.5 | 1 ppm | N | | | [[http://www.proteochem.com/hplcacetone1l-p-222.html?osCsid=a25qj4jn1fm1kh03l9mb8b6ja5|HPLC Acetone 1 L]] | 99.9 | 3 ppm | | 58.00 (1L) | | [[http://www.capitolscientific.com/EMD-Millipore-AX0118-2-Acetone-High-Purity-Lab-Grade-1L-Glass-Bottle|EMD Millipore AX0118-2 Acetone, High Purity, Lab Grade, 1L Glass Bottle]] | | | | | | [[http://www.dudadiesel.com/search.php?query=acetone|DudaDiesel Acetone]] | 99.5 | 0.001 g/100 mL | [[http://www.dudadiesel.com/msds/acetoneCOA.pdf|Y]] | 8.50 (1L) | | KMG: Acetone Cleanroom LP | | 1 ppm | [[http://www.ktecdirect.com/certs/104BE0382.pdf‎|Y]] | | | | Acetone Production Grade VWR-BDH (A)06080903 | 99.97 | 0.001% (10 ppm) | [[https://media.vwr.com/stibo/hi_res/9876231.pdf‎|Y]] | | | | [[http://www.gjchemical.com/wp-content/themes/genesis/desc/100120.pdf‎|HPLC Grade ACS, Spectrophotometric Grade ACS, Reagent Grade ACS]] | 99.97 | 5 ppm | | | | [[http://www.sciencecompany.com/Acetone-ACS-Reagent-Grade-16oz-P6659.aspx|Pharmco Acetone, 99.5% ACS Reagent Grade, 16oz (Science Company)]] | 99.5 | 0.001% (10 ppm) | | |
