Phosphine and Diborane mixtures

Bhoruka Specialty Gases, based in Bengaluru, India, is a leading provider of high-purity gases and gas mixtures, including phosphine (PH3) and diborane (B2H6) mixtures.

Manufacturing Overview

The manufacturing of phosphine and diborane mixtures at Bhoruka Specialty Gases involves several key steps to ensure the production of high-purity, precise gas mixtures. These processes are designed to meet the stringent requirements of the semiconductor and other advanced technology industries.

Key Processes and Technologies

1. Raw Material Handling and Preparation:

  • High Purity Gases: The production begins with the acquisition of high-purity raw gases. For phosphine and diborane, this involves sourcing ultra-high purity PH3 and B2H6 gases.
  • Storage: These gases are stored in specialized containers designed to prevent contamination and maintain purity.

2. Gas Mixing:

  • Precision Mixing: High-precision equipment is used to blend the purified gases into specific mixtures. For example, PH3 and B2H6 can be mixed with inert gases like hydrogen (H2), argon (Ar), or nitrogen (N2) to create the desired concentrations.
  • Control Systems: Automated control systems ensure precise ratios and consistent quality across batches.

3. Quality Assurance:

  • Analytical Testing: Advanced analytical methods such as ICP-MS, GC-MS, and GC-AED are employed to verify the purity and composition of the gas mixtures. These methods can detect impurities at parts per billion (ppb) or even parts per trillion (ppt) levels.
  • In-Progress Analysis: Continuous monitoring and rigorous in-progress analysis help prevent contamination and ensure product consistency.
  • Temperature and Pressure Control: The entire process is carefully controlled to maintain optimal temperature and pressure conditions, reducing the formation of by-products.

4. Packaging and Storage:

  • Cylinder Treatment: Gas cylinders are treated to ensure they are free from contaminants before being filled with the gas mixtures.
  • Labelling and Documentation: Each cylinder is labelled with detailed information about the gas mixture, including concentration, purity, and production date.
  • Storage: Finished products are stored in secure, climate-controlled environments to preserve their integrity until shipment.

5. Safety Measures:

  • Gas Monitoring and Scrubbing Systems: High-efficiency gas monitoring and scrubbing systems are in place to detect and neutralize any accidental releases of hazardous gases.
  • Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Employees are provided with the best available PPE, including SCBA breathing air and fire suits for emergency response.
  • Training and Compliance: Continuous training ensures that all personnel are knowledgeable about safety protocols and regulatory compliance.
