Spin coating
The manufacturer does not publish a spin curve for ma-P 1225.
- One tabulated point, not a sweep: the technical data table gives ma-P 1225 as 2.5 µm at 3000 rpm for 30 s, the single condition every grade in the series is listed at, and one anchor is not a curve.
- The sheet also plots film thickness against spin speed from 1000 to 6000 rpm for all six grades, but as smooth lines with no markers and no numeric table, so no values are published from it.
- Accel, dispense volume and edge-bead removal are not published.
- Adhesion
- HMDS not required — Not addressed in this product sheet.
Soft bake
- Soft bake
- Not published — characterize on-tool
Exposure dose
The manufacturer publishes 55 mJ/cm². Dose scales with film thickness and depends on your optics, so treat it as a starting point and run a dose array.
- As published
- 55 mJ/cm² is the published dose for ma-P 1225, measured under broadband exposure with the meter reading the 365 nm line rather than specified as a monochromatic i-line dose.
Not published for this resist: Dose at 365 nm, Dose at 405 nm — characterize on-tool.

Hard bake, etch & strip
- Etch resistance
- "High pattern stability in wet etch processes and acid and alkaline plating baths" and "Highly stable in dry etch processes e.g. CHF3, CF4, SF6" (Unique features, p.1).

Where it's used
Practical notes from the datasheet
ma-P 1225 is the 2.5 µm grade of the ma-P 1200 series, coated at 3000 rpm for 30 s, and the sheet shows it resolving 2 µm lines on 4 µm spaces at that thickness. Its dose, 55 mJ/cm², sits only modestly above the thinner grades; the step to a much higher dose comes at ma-P 1240. The series is sold for stability in acid and alkaline plating baths and in wet and dry etches, and for easy removal afterwards. Development is aqueous alkaline; the sheet gives no softbake, developer product or develop time.
Grades in this family
Other grades in the ma-P 1200 series line differ mainly in coating thickness:
