Zusammenfassung: | Compositions for making ultrapure water in microelectronic device fabrication processes comprise hydrogen peroxide, peracetic acid, and water. Methods of sterilizing ultrapure water delivery systems for use in microelectronic device fabrication processes comprise contacting ultrapure water delivery systems with water having temperatures ranging from about 26 DEG C. to about 40 DEG C.; and sterilizing the ultrapure water delivery systems with compositions comprising hydrogen peroxide, peracetic acid, and water. The ultrapure water delivery systems comprise water tanks, heat exchangers in fluid communication with the water tanks, ultraviolet sterilizers in fluid communication with the heat exchangers, OR-polishers in fluid communication with the ultraviolet sterilizers, MB-polishers in fluid communication with the OR-polishers, and ultrafilters in fluid communication with the OR-polishers. The compositions employed in the sterilizing step do not contact the OR-polishers and the MB-polishers. |
