In depth · editorial + model · written 2026-07-13
Red Avenue New Materials is a Chinese specialty-chemicals group whose electronic-materials arm, Beijing Kehua, ranks among the leading domestic suppliers of KrF and ArF photoresists — the light-sensitive coatings that let lithography pattern circuits onto a wafer. It sits in the process-chemicals layer of the chain, a link long dominated by a handful of Japanese incumbents. The structural hook is substitution: as Chinese fabs seek home-grown resist to reduce reliance on foreign supply, a qualified domestic maker gains rare leverage in a material that is notoriously hard to crack and slow to approve.
