In 2019, APAC accounted for the largest share of the photoresist process chemicals market. APAC holds ample opportunities for companies providing photoresist and photoresist ancillaries. The region has been noticed as one of the prominent markets for using photoresist and photoresist ancillaries. China is dominating the regional market, followed by other countries such as Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam, Korea, Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia. These countries are experiencing rising demand from the semiconductors and integrated circuits (ICs), liquid-crystal display (LCDs), printed circuit boards (PCBs), and others. Photoresist process chemicals are extensively used in the manufacturing of photoresist, which are further used in wearable devices, smartphones, and other electronic devices. The demand for smartphones and wearable devices has increased subsequently with the growth of the electronics industry as well as with shift in consumer living standards. Thus, the rise in demand for smartphones and wearables is boosting the photoresist process chemicals market in the region.
Recent technological advancements have underlined the importance of semiconductors across various industries. Semiconductors have become major components in consumer electronics and peripherals in the automotive sector in recent years. After witnessing decline in sales numbers in 2019, the semiconductor industry recorded surge in revenue in 2019, despite the troubles caused by the COVID-19 pandemic that brought the world economy to a halt. According to the World Semiconductor Trade Statistics, chip sales rose to US$ 439 billion in 2019, and it is predicted to reach US$ 469 billion by 2021. Major semiconductor companies such as Taiwan Semiconductor, Intel, and Texas Instruments have also reported enhanced performance irrespective of the effects of pandemic. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index, which is based on the value of the 30 largest semiconductor firms globally, increased by ~5× in the last 5 years, and the value of these firms rose from US$ 80 in January 2016 to US$ 416 in January 2021.

Semiconductors are make everyday gadgets such as televisions, computers, and mobile devices technologically sound. Photoresist chemicals are used in semiconductor manufacturing for photolithography. Photolithography has been the major driver in the quest to achieve maximum size reduction of gadgets and devices. Several companies are planning to expand their production of photoresists to meet the growing demand from the semiconductor industry. For example, in February 2021, Sumitomo Chemical announced the expansion of its production capacity of photoresists by installing new production lines in its Osaka Works (Konohana-ku, Osaka, Japan). It is producing photoresist process chemicals such as including argon fluoride (ArF) immersion and extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography for advanced semiconductor processes, The company plans to commence operations at the new plant by 2022.
Photoresist Process Chemicals Market: Segmental Overview
By product type, the global photoresist process chemicals market is segmented into solvents, binders, sensitizer, and others. In 2019, the solvent segment led the photoresist process chemicals market with a significant share. A solvent known as a developer which is employed to the surface while manufacturing photoresist and assembling the components and photoresist products. Solvents are needed to create the photoresist a liquid, which further permits the resist to be spun onto a substrate. In negative photoresists, non-polar organic solvents such as xylene, toluene, and halogenated aliphatic hydrocarbons are used. On the contrary, in positive resists, organic solvents such as ethyl cellosolve acetate, diglyme, or cyclohexanone, and ethoxyethyl acetate can be used.
Based on application, the global photoresist process chemicals market is segmented into microelectronics, printed circuit boards, and others. In 2019, the microelectronics segment accounted for the largest share of the global photoresist process chemicals market. Microelectronics field consist of micro-semiconductor devices transistors, capacitors, resistors and active chip. They are widely being used in consumer electronics such as smartphones, music players, and household appliances, as well as in other industrial processes. Microelectronic components need protection from the environment as well as electrical and mechanical connections to the surrounding components. Photoresist solvent, sensitizers, polymers, and other chemicals are used to serve this purpose. Growing applications in medical, automotive, and electronic industries have raised the demand for microelectronic components, which supports the growth of photoresist process chemicals market.
