What is the significance of LG Chem's new semiconductor stripping solution supply to Amkor Technology?

LG Chem's mass supply of semiconductor stripping solution to Amkor Technology marks its first entry into the semiconductor materials market and accelerates the expansion of its semiconductor materials business. The solution—customized for Amkor’s new production line—reduces photoresist and residue removal time by approximately 50%, significantly enhancing manufacturing efficiency for advanced packaging. Its successful certification by Amkor, a global leader in semiconductor testing and packaging, validates LG Chem’s technical capability, built on prior expertise in display stripping solutions.

How does LG Chem plan to grow its electronic materials business in response to rising demand for AI and HBM?

In response to surging demand driven by AI and high-bandwidth memory (HBM), LG Chem plans to more than double the scale of its electronic materials business by 2030. To achieve this, it will expand its product portfolio—including copper-clad laminates (CCL) and die-attach films (DAF)—and invest 15 trillion KRW in R&D to strengthen its leadership in core materials.
