Cleaning compositions and the method of using the same are disclosed, where the compositions include one or more alkanolamines, one or more ether alcohol solvents or aromatic containing alcohol, one or more corrosion inhibitors, and optionally one or more secondary solvents.

Photoresist remover

Improved stripper solutions for removing photoresists from substrates are provided that exhibit improved compatibility with copper, leadfree solder, and epoxy-based molding compounds. The stripper solutions comprise a primary solvent, a secondary glycol ether solvent, potassium hydroxide, and an amine. The solutions also exhibit reduced potassium carbonate crystal formation compared to conventional formulations containing potassium hydroxide, and extended bath life compared to formulations containing tetramethylammonium hydroxide.

Photoresist stripper

Improved stripper solutions for removing photoresists from substrates are provided that typically have flash points above about 95&#xb0; C. and high loading capacities. The stripper solutions comprise diethylene glycol butyl ether, quaternary ammonium hydroxide, and an alkanolamine having at least two carbon atoms, at least one amino substituent and at least one hydroxyl substituent, the amino and hydroxyl substituents attached to two different carbon atoms. Some formulations can additionally contain a secondary solvent. The formulations do not contain DMSO. Methods for use of the stripping solutions are additionally provided.

The disclosure is directed solutions and processes to remove substances from substrates. In some cases, the substances can include photoresist on semiconductor wafers. The solution can include hydrogen peroxide in an amount that is no greater than 15% by weight of the total weight of the solution. The solution can also include a quaternary ammonium hydroxide and water. Further, the solution can include an amine, a co-solvent, or both. One or more sides of the substrate can be contacted with the solution to remove one or more substances from the solution.

Aqueous solution and process for removing substances from substrates

Compositions are described that are useful for removing organic and organometallic substances from substrates, for example, photoresist wafers. Processes are presented that apply a minimum volume of a composition as a coating to the inorganic substrate whereby sufficient heat is added and the organic or organometallic substances are completely removed by rinsing. The compositions and processes may be suitable for removing and, in some instances, completely dissolving photoresists of the positive and negative varieties, and specifically negative dry film photoresist from electronic devices.
