Therefore, creating ultra-pure, statically dissipative, and safe packaging is crucial for protecting silicon wafers and semiconductors during manufacturing and transport.
Solutions:
To achieve this high level of protection, maintaining stringent quality controls and cleanliness standards for manufacturing the semiconductor packaging materials and the packaging is crucial.
As a result, the materials within the facility, including the air and water quality, matter as much as the personal protective equipment (PPE) materials that a worker in the facility is wearing.
