Abstract

The present invention provides a photoresist stripper including about 5 wt % to about 20 wt % alcohol amine, about 40 wt % to about 70 wt % glycol ether, about 20 wt % to about 40 wt % N-methyl pyrrolidone, and about 0.2 wt % to about 6 wt % chelating agent.

Claims (23)

1. A photoresist stripper, comprising:

about 5 wt % to about 20 wt % alcohol amine;

about 40 wt % to about 70 wt % glycol ether;

about 20 wt % to about 40 wt % N-methyl pyrrolidone; and

about 0.2 wt % to about 6 wt % chelating agent, wherein the chelating agent is one of methyl gallate, hydroxyl ethyl piperazine (HEP), and a mixture thereof.

2. The photoresist stripper of claim 1 ,

wherein the alcohol amine is one of monoisopropanol amine (CH 3 CH(OH)CH 2 NH 2 ), N-monoethanol amine (HO(CH 2 ) 2 NH 2 ), and a mixture thereof.

3. The photoresist stripper of claim 1 ,

wherein the glycol ether is one of diethylene glycol monoethyl ether [C 2 H 5 O(CH 2 CH 2 O) 2 H)], methyl diglycol [CH 3 O(CH 2 CH 2 O) 2 H], butyl diglycol [C 4 H 9 O(CH 2 CH 2 O) 2 H], and a mixture thereof.

4. The photoresist stripper of claim 1 ,

wherein the alcohol amine is monoisopropanol amine (CH 3 CH(OH)CH 2 NH 2 ) and the glycol ether is butyl diglycol [C 4 H 9 O(CH 2 CH 2 O) 2 H].

5. The photoresist stripper of claim 1 , wherein concentrations of methyl gallate and hydroxyl ethyl piperazine (HEP) are substantially the same.

6. A photoresist stripper, comprising:

about 5 wt % to about 20 wt % N-monoethanol amine;

about 40 wt % to about 70 wt % butyl diglycol;

about 20 wt % to about 40% N-methyl pyrrolidone; and

about 0.2 wt % to about 6 wt % a chelating agent, wherein the chelating agent is one of methyl gallate, hydroxyl ethyl piperazine (HEP), and a mixture thereof.

7. A photoresist stripper, comprising:

about 5 wt % to about 20 wt % N-monoethanol amine;

about 40 wt % to about 70 wt % butyl diglycol;

about 20 wt % to about 40 wt % N-methyl pyrrolidone;

about 0.1 wt % to about 3 wt % methyl gallate; and

about 0.1 wt % to about 3 wt % hydroxyl ethyl piperazine.
