<p>The present invention provides a cutting fluid which, in the step of cutting a silicon ingot, is superior to conventional products in the removal of processing heat, infiltrating property, inhibition of reaction between water and the silicon, and antifoaming property to thereby attain an improvement in cutting efficiency, and with which silicon wafers having satisfactory flatness are yielded. The accuracy of the processed surface can hence be kept high even under severe slicing conditions. The cutting fluid is a hydrous cutting fluid for silicon-ingot slicing, characterized by comprising a polyoxyalkylene adduct (A) of a compound (a) having 3-8 hydroxy groups, the adduct (A) being represented by general formula (1), and water as essential components, the polyoxyalkylene adduct (A) having an HLB of 6.0-20.0. R{O-(A1O)m-H}f (1) [In formula (1), R represents the residue formed by removing the hydroxyl groups from a compound having 3-8 hydroxy groups; (A1O) represents a C2-4 oxyalkylene; m, indicating the average number of moles of a C2-4 alkylene oxide which has added, is a number of 1-350; and f is an integer of 3-8.]</p> |
