Mitsubishi Materials released a press release on the 9th, and its four-day factory in Mie Prefecture, Japan, exploded at 13:05 (GMT+8) on the 9th, and the explosion has killed 5 people, 12 The person was injured.
The Sijo City factory mainly produces "polysilicon" as a raw material for silicon wafers. According to Mitsubishi Materials, it is still unclear at this stage how the accident will affect the customer. According to the news agency, the Sizao plant has an annual production capacity of 2,800 tons of polysilicon, and 70% of the products produced are supplied to SUMCO, the world's second largest silicon wafer manufacturer.
Mitsubishi Materials pointed out that part of the production line of the four-day factory will stop production from the 10th, but the damage of the equipment itself is slight due to the distance from the production line.
It is understood that Mitsubishi's major customer, SUMCO, refused to respond to the possible impact of the above-mentioned bombings on the grounds that intelligence was still being collected. According to the Nikkei, SUMCO is still stocking polysilicon in its core plants in Saga Prefecture. In addition to Mitsubishi materials, SUMCO also purchases polysilicon from many companies in Japan and abroad, such as Osaka Titanium Technologies. The impact of events on semiconductor production for cars/smart phones should be limited.
Nikkei also pointed out that if the above-mentioned four-day factory plant downtime is extended, in order to maintain a stable supply of silicon wafers, SUMCO may increase the purchase of polysilicon from companies other than Mitsubishi Materials.
