Spin coating
The manufacturer does not publish a spin curve for AR-P 3510T.
- The 'Spin curve' figure (p.1, bottom-left; axes: film thickness 1.0–6.0 µm vs. spin speed 0–8000 rpm) plots TWO traces, and per the manufacturer's OWN legend each trace already covers a combined pair of grades: 'AR-P 3510/3510 T' as one trace, 'AR-P 3540/3540 T' as the other — this document itself, not an extraction error, presents 3510 and 3510T as sharing one spin curve.
- No numeric spin table accompanies that figure, so no curve is published for this grade.
- The only confirmed numeric anchor is 2.0 µm at 4000 rpm, 60 s spin time (from the 'Coating' row of the worked process-conditions table, p.1, 'AR-P 3510' column — unsplit for this grade pair per the Properties I table).
- No accel or edge-bead detail is published.
- Adhesion
- HMDS not required — Manufacturer states 'very good adhesion properties' as a series-wide (AR-P 3500(T)) characteristic.
Soft bake
- Soft bake
- 100 °C · 60 s · hotplate
- Notes
- 'Tempering (± 1 °C): 100 °C, 1 min, hot plate OR 95 °C, 25 min, convection oven' — this row of the worked process-conditions table (p.1) is NOT split between the table's two example columns (AR-P 3510, AR-P 3540 T), i.e. it is presented as one shared condition for the worked AR-P 3500(T) example, which is why it is attributed to AR-P 3510T here despite that exact SKU not being one of the two labeled columns.

Exposure dose
Allresist splits exposure dose by grade and the T variant gets no column of its own — the two grades that do are 55 mJ/cm² for AR-P 3510 and 120 mJ/cm² for AR-P 3540 T. Neither is published as this grade's dose. Run a dose array on your own tool to land the working dose.
Not published for this resist: Dose at 365 nm, Dose at 405 nm — characterize on-tool.

- Dilution
- AR 300-26 at 1:2; AR 300-35 used undiluted; AR 300-44 listed as the third (ready-to-use) option — three alternative developer/dilution combinations named for the combined 'AR-P 3510 T, 3540 T' row of the 'Development recommendations' table (p.1).

- Manufacturer states the AR-P 3500(T) series is 'plasma etching resistant, temperature-stable up to 120 °C' (Characterisation, series-wide, p.1).
- Stripper
- AR 300-70 or O2 plasma ashing ("Removal" row, "Process conditions" table, p.1 — unsplit, shared across the worked example).
- Storage
- 10–18 °C, approximately 6-month shelf life ("Storage 6 month (°C)" row, "Properties I" table, p.1 — a single value spanning both the 3510/3510T and 3540/3540T column groups).

Where it's used
Practical notes from the datasheet
AR-P 3510T is the TMAH-compatible ('T') variant of Allresist's AR-P 3510 grade within the wider AR-P 3500(T) series, a classic DNQ/novolac positive resist for IC production with broadband UV / i-line / g-line sensitivity. The manufacturer states the 3500T sub-line is 'suitable for TMAH developer 0.26 n', distinguishing it from the base (non-T) grades. Several process parameters in this document are given only for the two SPECIFIC worked example columns the table actually labels — 'AR-P 3510' (base) and 'AR-P 3540 T' — and NOT for 'AR-P 3510 T' itself; most notably the exposure dose (55 vs. 120 mJ/cm² for the two shown grades) is clearly grade-sensitive, so no dose is recorded here rather than borrowing the base grade's number. By contrast, film thickness at 4000 rpm (2.0 µm) and the spin-curve figure are explicitly shared/combined between 3510 and 3510T by the manufacturer's own table structure and legend. A large block of dose-range, depth-of-focus, and SEM linearity/dark-field-erosion data on p.1 (bottom) and all of p.2 is explicitly labeled 'AR-P 3540 T' and belongs to that different grade, not to AR-P 3510T — excluded here despite the superficially similar SKU name.

- https://www.allresist.com/portfolio-item/developer-ar-300-44/ — Allresist's own product page for developer AR 300-44: gives its main component as TMAH and its metal-ion content as under 0.1 ppm. Read together with the AR 300-26 page (sodium borate / sodium hydroxide) and the AR 300-35 page (sodium metasilicate / phosphate), it establishes that the developers this resist's own "Development recommendations" table offers span both a metal-ion-free and a metal-ion-containing chemistry.
