Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to a natural sunlight wafer cleaner composition, which has excellent detergency against sunlight contamination of a solar photovoltaic wafer and re-adhesion of a contamination source, There is no occurrence of stain, it does not affect the post-process, and it is excellent in human safety and environmental safety.
Due to the regulation of CO 2 emissions to prevent global warming, many petroleum-based chemical materials, materials and products are being converted into substances with low CO 2 emissions such as renewable resources.
Therefore, the use of vegetable and natural raw materials without using petrochemical raw materials is in accordance with domestic and foreign environmental policies regulating CO 2 emissions and total-VOC emissions.
In addition, by solving the contamination defect problem such as dark spot frequently occurred in the production process of silicon wafers with wafer cleaner having superior cleaning power, it is possible to reduce the defective rate of wafers and increase the productivity of wafers by increasing the productivity of wafers.
The wafer can be obtained by cutting a silicon ingot. The ingot is obtained by growing silicon crystals. When the growth process is completed and the silicon ingot is completed, a cutting process is performed to obtain a wafer. After the ingot is cut, it is necessary to carry out a cleaning process to remove the cutting oil and slurry generated in the cutting process.
The pollutants can be largely divided into organic matter and inorganic matter. The organic matter is mostly the cooling agent used in the sawing process and the residual pollution source generated in the cleaning process. The inorganic matter is generated by the abrasive (eg SiC) Polysilicon flakes are dominant, and metals (zinc, iron, copper, etc.) away from the wire and carbon and silicon are also present.
Since the electrical characteristics of the solar photovoltaic wafer are significantly affected by the impurities, the surface of the solar photovoltaic wafer is sufficiently cleaned before each step to remove contamination by impurities. As industrial means thereof, many methods have been proposed in which a treatment solution containing an alkali as a main component or a treatment solution containing an alkaline surfactant, a hydrophilic solvent, hydrogen peroxide solution, and the like is added.
For example, Korean Patent Laid-Open No. 10-2010-0062096 (Jun. 10, 2010) discloses that a wafer cleaner composition composed of a glycol ether compound, an alcohol compound and a surfactant is effective in removing contaminants. However, in the case of glycol compounds, the possibility of re-contamination is very low due to the low emulsification and dispersing power of cutting pollutants after the cleaning is completed. In the case of alcoholol compounds, when the cleaning process temperature is 50 ° C or higher, It may be difficult to repeatedly use the cleaning agent in the process. In addition, since most of the constituents used in the conventional composition are derived from petroleum, they are very disadvantageous in terms of human safety and biodegradability.
In the case of Korean Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 10-2014-0018521 (published on Mar. 23, 2014), a wafer cleaner composition composed of an acrylic copolymer, an amine compound, an inorganic base and an organic base is used for the slurry It is described that the dirt on the surface of the wafer, in particular, the dirt generated by sticking to the surface of the wafer due to the heat generated during the slurry cutting and the process environment, is excellent. However, in the case of the acrylic copolymer, the dispersibility of the slurry source is excellent, but the wettability and penetration of the wafer surface is low, so that the cleaning of the contamination source of the cutting oil and the wafer pieces is not effective in a process in which the distance between the wafer and the wafer is small. In addition, amine compounds are highly toxic to humans and disadvantageous to environmental safety, so it is recommended that they are not used as much as possible.
In the case of WO 2011/154875 A1 (Dec. 15, 2011 international publication), modification of the surface of a silicon substrate to be etched and oxidized by a silicon substrate cleaning composition composed of quaternary ammonium hydroxide, a sulfa anion salt and a phosphoric acid anion salt, It is described as effective for removal of the inert layer produced by doping and glass being silicate, removal of porous silicon produced by wet edge separation, and / or removal of sculpture that repopulates the silicon substrate surface. However, sulfide-based anion salts and phosphate-based anion salts are very bubbles and have low sphericity, resulting in problems in the wastewater treatment process after the process, and the biodegradation is also not favorable, so significant improvement is required to meet the rigorous demand of the present process .
In WO 2004/053045 A1 (international publication 2004, 26 24), a detergent composition consisting of quaternary ammonium hydroxide, ethylene oxide-propylene oxide straight chain or branched alkyl ethers has excellent both degreasing performance and particle removal performance of the wafer surface And also that the etching on the wafer is well controlled. However, ethylene oxide-propylene oxide straight chain or branched alkyl ethers are low in solubility at a high concentration of quaternary ammonium hydroxide, and there is a restriction to add a phase stabilizer. In addition, since ethylene oxide-propylene oxide alone or a branched chain alkyl ether alone is difficult to secure a sufficient dispersing power against a contaminant source of slurry, there is a high risk of reattaching after cleaning, so that occurrence of defective wafers after cleaning may be increased.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a solar wafer cleaner composition having excellent cleaning power against flame contamination of a solar wafer, that is, an abrasive (SiC), cutting oil, a metal,
It is another object of the present invention to provide a solar wafer cleaner composition having an anti-reattaching ability against a contamination source in a cleaning process on the surface of a solar wafer.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a solar wafer cleaner composition which is excellent in detergency such as dark spots on the wafer surface after the cleaning process of the solar wafer.

1) Analysis of contamination source by electron microscope and EDX on the surface of multi-solar wafer before cleaning
1-1) Next, the surface of the solar wafer was observed using an electron microscope before cleaning. The surface of the solar wafer mainly consists of contamination sources such as wafer ring processing slurry and cutting oil.

1-2) Next, the surface of the solar wafer was observed before cleaning using EDX. Carbon and oxygen are mainly derived from diethylene glycol (DEG) and proplyene glycol (PG), which are the coolant components used in wafer processing. The iron (Fe) component is a source of contamination caused by the high-temperature cutting of the wire-sawing process of the solar wafer. When the wafer is not cleaned properly, the Fe component adsorbs on the wafer surface and remains as a block spot after drying .
