Semiconductor Tapes in Military-Industrial Applications
The first half of
October 2025 witnessed a rapid succession of major global events: the
conclusion of the war between Israel and Hamas, a crash in Bitcoin triggered by China's rare earth embargo, and Taiwan's imminent development of the
"Taiwan Shield" (T-Dome) air defense system. These issues evolved
rapidly, demanding constant attention, even during the brief National Day
holiday.
The greatest collective impact of these issues is concentrated in the semiconductor and military-industrial sectors.
We can gain insight into these trends through the conflicts in Israel-Hamas and Russia-Ukraine.
The military-industrial sector is evolving from the warfare models of the last century towards new-generation tactics, including:
1. Drone warfare
2. The Iron Dome air defense system
3. Laser-based air defense systems (Iron Beam).
Semiconductor tapes are not merely used in consumer electronics and AI; they also address markets in military applications such as optical lenses, sensor manufacturing processes, electronic components, and chip computing.
Process tapes manufactured by Solar plus company, such as UV-release tape, thermal-release tape, and protective tape, are all applicable process materials.
Here is the checklist for adhesive tapes applicable to the military-industrial sector.
