General comment Polycrystalline silicon, also known as polysilicon or mc-Si, is a high purity, polycrystalline form of silicon. It is used as a raw material by the solar photovoltaic and electronics industry. It is produced from metallurgical grade silicon by a chemical purification process, called the Siemens process. It has a grainy appearance and is used in solar panels and electronic devices. It has an impurity level of 1 part per billion or less.
