Hitachi Chemical's Copper-Clad Laminate Subsidiaries Converted into Wholly-Owned
March 28, 2016 | Hitachi Chemical Co., Ltd.Estimated reading time: 1 minute
Hitachi Chemical Co., Ltd. announces the acquisition of a 25% stake each in its two subsidiaries, Hitachi Chemical Electronic Materials (Hong Kong) Limited and Hitachi Chemical Electronic Materials (Guangzhou) Limited, from MTG Laminate (BVI) Limited to convert them into wholly-owned subsidiaries, effective March 18, 2016.
In November 2011, Hitachi Chemical raised its shares in the two subsidiaries that manufacture copper-clad laminates for printed wiring boards to 75% to include as consolidated subsidiaries. This allowed Hitachi Chemical to establish supply systems for copper-clad laminates in the southern and eastern parts of China, major production areas for multilayer wiring boards and semiconductor-related packages used for servers and routers in IT infrastructure as well as high-density wiring boards for modules, offering the opportunity to expand market sales in China and Taiwan region.
At the present time, Hitachi Chemical has acquired an additional 25% stake in both its subsidiaries from MTG Laminate (BVI) Limited to integrate these companies as wholly-owned subsidiaries and enhance its business base in the copper-clad laminate division of Hitachi Chemical Group while taking advantage of the Group's resources. This integration will facilitate quick decision-making and accurate understanding of market trends and needs, contributing to higher levels of customer satisfaction.
Hitachi Chemical will further strengthen and expand its copper-clad laminate business and continue to provide products that meet customer needs.

The Chemical Connection: Reducing Etch System Water Usage, Part 2
05/02/2024 | Don Ball -- Column: The Chemical ConnectionIn my last column, I reviewed some relatively simple ways to reduce water usage in existing etch systems: cutting down cooling coil water flow, adding chillers to replace plant water for cooling, lowering flow rate nozzles for rinses, etc. This month, I’ll continue with more ways to control water usage in your etcher. Most of these are not easily retrofittable to existing equipment but should be given serious consideration when new equipment is contemplated. With the right combination of add-ons, it is possible to bring the amount of water used in an etch system to almost zero.
Designer’s Notebook: What Designers Need to Know About Manufacturing, Part 2
04/24/2024 | Vern Solberg -- Column: Designer's NotebookThe printed circuit board (PCB) is the primary base element for providing the interconnect platform for mounting and electrically joining electronic components. When assessing PCB design complexity, first consider the component area and board area ratio. If the surface area for the component interface is restricted, it may justify adopting multilayer or multilayer sequential buildup (SBU) PCB fabrication to enable a more efficient sub-surface circuit interconnect.
