Silane (SiH4) is a colorless, toxic gas that gives off a strong acidic odor. Ace Gases offers silane products in the form of cylinders at different volumes with high purity grades.
Silane is widely used in the semiconductor industry as a silicon precursor for many silicon-containing thin films. In the manufacturing process of solar photovoltaic modules, silane is consumed for depositing hydrogenated amorphous silicon on glass and other substrates such as plastic and metal materials.
In addition to its use in the semiconductor and solar industries, silane is used in the production of fiberglass and composites to improve their mechanical strength and electrical properties. It is also used in the production of adhesives and sealants to increase adhesion, temperature resistance, and chemical resistance.
Other industries that utilize silane include the chemical industry, where it is used as a reducing agent and as a source of pure silicon, and the pharmaceutical industry, where it is used in the synthesis of certain drugs.
Ace Gases provides silane in high-purity grades and in various cylinder sizes to meet the needs of different industries.
