中文(ZH) 台积电回应中央硝子被曝停产高纯度六氟化钨：供应多元，不受影响

TSMC unaffected by supplier's tungsten hexafluoride production halt

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A report indicated that Central Glass, a supplier of specialty gases to semiconductor manufacturers like TSMC, would cease production of high-purity tungsten hexafluoride. However, TSMC has responded by stating that this development is not expected to impact its operations. The company emphasized its strategy of diversifying its global supplier base and noted that alternative solutions are available for gas tungsten raw materials, suggesting a limited impact on the industry.

    TSMC Responds to Central Glass's Reported Halt in High-Purity Tungsten Hexafluoride Production: Supply is Diversified and Unaffected

    据报道，市场近期传出，供应台积电等半导体大厂气体的特种气体供应商中央硝子（Central Glass）将停产高纯度六氟化钨。对此，台积电表示，目前不预期对公司营运产生影响。台积电公关处于7月20日完整回应提到，“公司全球采购布局策略，是持续开发多源供应方案、建立多元的全球供应商。我们目前不预期对公司营运产生影响。”台积电供应链与供应商皆提到，目前看气体钨粉原料无断供，仍有多项替代方案，预期对产业影响有限。（界面）
