Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A modification method of a polyurethane, including the steps of: preparing a polyurethane having an ethylenically unsaturated bond; and treating the polyurethane with a liquid containing a compound having a conjugated double bond, or a modification method of a polyurethane, including the steps of: preparing a polyurethane having a conjugated double bond; and treating the polyurethane with a liquid containing a compound having an ethylenically unsaturated bond is used.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for modifying a polishing pad, the method comprising: preparing a polishing pad comprising in at least a polishing surface thereof, a polyurethane having an ethylenically unsaturated bond; and treating the polyurethane with a liquid comprising a compound having a conjugated double bond and a functional group selected from the group consisting of a carboxyl group, a metal salt of a carboxyl group, a hydroxyl group, an amino group, a sulfonic acid group, a phosphoric acid group and an imidazole group to obtain a Diels Alder ring substituted with the functional group on the polyurethane. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the polyurethane comprises a polymer constituent unit derived from a compound having an ethylenically unsaturated bond. 3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the compound having an ethylenically unsaturated bond comprises at least one compound selected from the group consisting of cis-2-butene-1,4-diol, 4,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)imidazole, 5-norbornene-2,3-dimethanol, cis-2-nonene-1-ol, cis-3-nonene-1-ol, cis-3-octene-1-ol, and polybutadiene diol. 4. A modified polishing pad obtained according to the method of claim 1 . 5. The polishing pad of claim 4 , wherein the polishing surface has a zeta potential at a pH of 3.0 of −1.0 mV or less. 6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the polyurethane is a thermoplastic polyurethane. 7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the polishing pad comprises a molded body of the thermoplastic polyurethane. 8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the polishing pad has at least one groove for sufficiently supplying a slurry to the polishing surface, wherein a depth of the groove is from 0.2 to 1.8 mm and a width of the groove is from 0.1 to 3.0 mm. 9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the polishing surface of the modified polishing pad has a contact angle with water of 80 degrees or less. 10. A method for modifying a polishing pad, the method comprising: preparing a polishing pad comprising, in at least a surface thereof, a polyurethane having a conjugated double bond; and treating the polishing surface with a liquid comprising a compound having an ethylenically unsaturated bond and a functional group selected from the group consisting of a carboxyl group, a hydroxyl group, an amino group, a sulfonic acid group, a phosphoric acid group and an imidazole group to obtain a Diels Alder ring substituted with the functional group on the polyurethane. 11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the polyurethane comprises a polymer constituent unit derived from a compound having a conjugated double bond. 12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the compound having a conjugated double bond comprises at least one compound selected from the group consisting of 4,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)imidazole, 4-hydroxymethyl-5-methylimidazole, and polyethylene furanoate. 13. A modified polishing pad obtained according to the method of claim 10 . 14. The polishing pad of claim 13 , wherein the polishing surface has a zeta potential at a pH of 3.0 of −1.0 mV or less. 15. The method of claim 10 , wherein the polyurethane is a thermoplastic polyurethane. 16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the polishing pad comprises a molded body of the thermoplastic polyurethane. 17. The method of claim 10 , wherein the polishing pad has at least one groove for sufficiently supplying a slurry to the polishing surface, wherein a depth of the groove is from 0.2 to 1.8 mm and a width of the groove is from 0.1 to 3.0 mm. 18. The method of claim 10 , wherein the polishing surface of the modified polishing pad has a contact angle with water of 80 degrees or less.
