Abstract (en)

The polishing pad is for polishing patterned semiconductor substrates. The pad includes a polymeric matrix and hollow polymeric particles within the polymeric matrix. The polymeric matrix is a polyurethane reaction product of a curative agent and an isocyanate-terminated polytetramethylene ether glycol at an NH 2 to NCO stoichiometric ratio of 80 to 97 percent. The isocyanate-terminated polytetramethylene ether glycol has an unreacted NCO range of 8.75 to 9.05 weight percent. The hollow polymeric particles having an average diameter of 2 to 50 µm and a wt% b and density b of constituents forming the polishing pad as follows: wt % a * density b density a = wt % b where density a equals an average density of 60 g/l, where density b is an average density of 5 g/l to 500g/l, where wt% a is 3.25 to 4.25 wt%. The polishing pad has a porosity of 30 to 60 percent by volume; and a closed cell structure within the polymeric matrix forms a continuous network surrounding the closed cell structure.
