From a previous Coretec news release on CHS and the anticipation of replacing Silane Trichlorosilane

Coretec's underlying technology is based on the efficient production of a high value liquid silicon precursor, cyclohexasilane ("CHS"). A key advantage of CHS is that it is a liquid at room temperature and does not convert to a gas until heated above 400°F. This compares to materials commonly used for manufacturing silicon-based semiconductors and solar cells (silane and trichlorosilane) that have much lower boiling points (-170F and 90°F, respectively) which leads to higher cost handling and shipping. Another key advantage of CHS, when compared to materials commonly used for manufacturing silicon-based semiconductors and solar cells, is that the production rate of the silicon forming step can be increased by a factor of six, leading to additional cost savings. Based on these competitive advantages and inquiries from potential users, Coretec anticipates that CHS will first be used as an alternative to silane or trichlorosilane in silicon-based semiconductor and solar cell manufacturing.
