The global demand for Photovoltaic Grade Trichlorosilane Market is presumed to reach the market size of nearly USD XX MN by 2028 from USD XX MN in 2021 with a CAGR of XX% under the study period 2022 - 2028.
Trichlorosilane of Photovoltaic Grade is made commercially by reacting a ferrosilicon bed with hydrogen chloride at a high temperature. To make Photovoltaic Grade Trichlorosilane, a finely pulverized metallurgical-grade silicon (MG-Si) with a silicon content of above 98 percent is fluidized with hydrogen chloride in the presence of a copper-containing catalyst. It's used as a silicon precursor for epitaxial silicon-containing thin films used in silicon wafer fabrication. Trichlorosilane of Photovoltaic Grade is commonly used in manufacturing semiconductor silicon, often known as polycrystalline silicon or polysilicon. It deposits epitaxial silicon layers on silicon wafers in the semiconductor industry. It is primarily used to synthesize silane coupling agents, silicone resins, epitaxial wafer intermediary material, polycrystalline silicon, and organic chemical compounds.
