METHOD OF MANUFACTURING CHEMICAL MECHANICAL POLISHING LAYERS

摘要

A method of making a polishing layer for polishing a substrate selected from at least one of a magnetic substrate, an optical substrate and a semiconductor substrate is provided, comprising: providing a liquid prepolymer material; providing a plurality of hollow microspheres; exposing the plurality of hollow microspheres to a carbon dioxide atmosphere for an exposure period to form a plurality of treated hollow microspheres; combining the liquid prepolymer material with the plurality of treated hollow microspheres to form a curable mixture; allowing the curable mixture to undergo a reaction to form a cured material, wherein the reaction is allowed to begin ≦24 hours after the formation of the plurality of treated hollow microspheres; and, deriving at least one polishing layer from the cured material; wherein the at least one polishing layer has a polishing surface adapted for polishing the substrate.

1. A method of making a polishing layer for polishing a substrate selected from at least one of a magnetic substrate, an optical substrate and a semiconductor substrate, comprising:
providing a liquid prepolymer material; providing a plurality of hollow microspheres; exposing the plurality of hollow microspheres to a carbon dioxide atmosphere for an exposure period of >3 hours to form a plurality of treated hollow microspheres; combining the liquid prepolymer material with the plurality of treated hollow microspheres to form a curable mixture; allowing the curable mixture to undergo a reaction to form a cured material, wherein the reaction is allowed to begin ≦24 hours after the formation of the plurality of treated hollow microspheres; and, deriving at least one polishing layer from the cured material; wherein the at least one polishing layer has a polishing surface adapted for polishing the substrate.
