The surging popularity of smartphones is poised to drive the growth of the chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) market. Smartphones, featuring organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays fabricated from flexible materials such as plastic, leverage chemical mechanical planarization for material removal, topography planarization, and device structure formation during manufacturing. As of February 2021, data from the Pew Research Center indicates that smartphone ownership among Americans reached 85%, a significant increase from 35% a decade ago. Furthermore, a report from Uswitch Limited in February 2023 forecasts that 95% of the anticipated 68.3 million people in the UK by 2025 will own smartphones. This widespread adoption of smartphones is a key driver for the growth of the chemical mechanical planarization market.

The escalating demand for semiconductors is expected to be a major catalyst for the growth of the chemical mechanical planarization market. Semiconductors, essential for electronic devices such as computers, rely on chemical mechanical planarization to achieve smooth, defect-free surfaces on silicon wafers and other substrates. This process is crucial for ensuring the proper operation of semiconductor devices. According to the Semiconductor Industry Association in February 2023, global semiconductor sales recorded a 3.3% increase from $555.9 billion in 2021 to $574.1 billion in 2022. The growing demand for semiconductors underscores the significance of chemical mechanical planarization in supporting this industry's expansion.

A key trend gaining traction in the chemical mechanical planarization market is product innovation. Leading companies in the market are actively focusing on technological advancement and developing new products to reinforce their market positions. An example of this trend is seen in Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., a South Korean multinational electronics corporation, which introduced the world's first reusable semiconductor polishing pad in June 2021. This innovative CMP pad addresses the environmental concerns and cost implications associated with the repeated purchase and disposal of CMP pads in the semiconductor industry. This commitment to product innovation highlights the dynamic nature of the chemical mechanical planarization market.

Major players in the chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) market are strategically concentrating on the development of innovative products, particularly SiC CMP systems, to enhance their competitive position. A SiC CMP system is a specialized CMP tool designed specifically for polishing silicon carbide (SiC) wafers, catering to the unique requirements of SiC device manufacturing. An illustrative example is Applied Materials Inc., a prominent US-based provider of equipment, services, and software for semiconductor manufacturing. In September 2021, Applied Materials Inc. introduced the Mirra Durum CMP System, equipped with dedicated hardware optimized for the more aggressive slurries and chemistries essential for polishing SiC wafers. This ensures the system can achieve high removal rates and low defect levels necessary for SiC device manufacturing. The Mirra Durum is capable of polishing 200mm SiC wafers with the high quality and uniformity demanded in SiC device manufacturing.

In January 2023 , Amtech Systems Inc., a US-based manufacturer of semiconductor consumables and equipment, acquired Entrepix Inc., for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition is anticipated to broaden Amtech's market opportunities and expedite growth in the front-end wafer processing market, particularly in silicon carbide applications. Entrepix Inc., a US-based provider specializing in chemical mechanical planarization and wafer cleaning technologies, aligns well with Amtech's existing product portfolio. The integration of Entrepix's expertise is expected to enhance Amtech's capabilities, and the combined entities will benefit from a more extensive customer base, reinforcing their collective presence in the semiconductor industry.
