TempKoat™ N Negative Temporary Photoresist

Part of the Kayaku Advanced Materials Line
Photoresists & Specialty Chemicals

TempKoat™ N is a chemically amplified, negative-tone resist series for advanced packaging and MEMS applications.

TempKoat™ N 15 is the first dilution available in the TempKoat™ N series and is optimized for thick resist applications from 7 to 20 μm.


Material Attributes:

  • Negative tone, chemically amplified resist
  • 7 to 20 µm film thickness in a single coat
  • i-Line/broadband sensitivity, 2:1 achievable aspect ratio
  • No rehydration or latency delay
  • Aqueous alkaline development (standard 0.26N TMAH)
  • Excellent resistance to copper plating chemistries
  • Residue-free removal

Material Uses:

  • Electroplating
  • RDL
  • Microbumping

* Note: Product not commercially available within the United States; however, small scale quantities may be purchased in the United States for R&D purposes.
