In a DPE technical paper titled, "Outgassing Characterization of Elastomeric Seals Used in Semiconductor Wafer Processing," presented Nov. 9 at the American Vacuum Society (AVS) in San Jose, Calif., DPE reviews a testing protocol for elastomers that demonstrates that outgassing can be significantly reduced by selecting sealing materials that have been appropriately developed and tested for minimal outgassing.
