Abstract:  This test method uses Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy to examine bulk
polymer samples of UPW distribution system components. It is intended to
qualitatively verify the chemical structure of a polymer resin by comparing
the sample's mid-infrared spectrum with that of a reference standard. This
document is in development as an industry standard by Semiconductor Equipment
and Materials International (SEMI). When available, adherence to the SEMI
standard is recommended.
