Key players in the market

Some of the key players in Electronic Cleaning Chemicals Market include Entegris, Inc., DuPont de Nemours, Inc., BASF SE, Merck KGaA, FUJIFILM Holdings Corporation, Kanto Chemical Co., Inc., Honeywell International Inc., Avantor, Inc., Cabot Microelectronics Corporation, TOKUYAMA Corporation, Stella Chemifa Corporation, Solvay SA, Mitsubishi Chemical Group Corporation, Lotte Fine Chemical Co., Ltd. and Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd.

Key Developments:

In November 2025, DuPont successfully executed the tax-free spin-off of its entire semiconductor and electronics division into a completely independent, publicly traded entity named Qnity Electronics, Inc.. This landmark separation stripped electronic cleaning, wet etching, and patterning materials out of the legacy DuPont multi-industrial portfolio, trading Qnity independently on the NYSE under the ticker symbol "Q".

In October 2023, Entegris, Inc. finalized a major asset divestiture by completing the sale of its Electronic Chemicals business unit to FUJIFILM Holdings Corporation for USD 700 million in cash. This critical corporate transaction allowed Entegris to aggressively pay down outstanding debt and narrow its strategic operational focus exclusively onto advanced planarization, specialized filtration, and high-purity microelectronics packaging materials.
