Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention concerns a chemical mechanical polishing pad having a polishing layer. The polishing layer contains an extruded sheet. The extruded sheet is a photopolymerizable composition containing a block copolymer, a UV curable acrylate, and a photoinitiator.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. A chemical mechanical polishing pad suitable for polishing at least one of a semiconductor substrate, an optical substrate and a magnetic substrate, the polishing pad having a polishing layer, the polishing layer being cured from an extruded sheet, the extruded sheet comprising a photopolymerizable composition comprising a styrenic block copolymer, a UV curable acrylate, polybutadiene oil and a photoinitiator, wherein said styrenic block copolymer is one or more members selected from the group consisting of a styrene-butadiene styrene (SBS) block copolymer, a styrene-isoprene-styrene (SIS) block copolymer, a styrene-ethylene-butene-styrene (SEBS) block copolymer a styrene-ethylene-propylene-styrene (SEPS) block copolymer, and mixtures thereof and the styrenic block copolymer is present at an amount of greater than 50 wt %, based on the total weight of the extruded sheet, and wherein upon UV curing, the extruded sheet having a Shore D hardness in the range of 40 to 70. 2. The chemical mechanical polishing pad of claim 1 , wherein said photopolymerizable composition further comprising an oil. 3. The chemical mechanical polishing pad of claim 1 , wherein said styrenic block copolymer is a triblock copolymer. 4. The chemical mechanical polishing pad of claim 1 , wherein said styrenic block copolymer is present at an amount of greater than 65%. 5. The chemical mechanical polishing pad of claim 1 , wherein said acrylate is one or more members selected from the group consisting of 1,3-butylene glycol diacrylate, 1,4-butanediol diacrylate, 1,4-butanediol dimethacrylate, 1,6-hexanediol diacrylate, and mixtures thereof. 6. The chemical mechanical polishing pad of claim 1 , wherein the extruded sheet after UV curing having a Shore D hardness in the range of 45 to 55. 7. The chemical mechanical polishing pad of claim 1 , wherein said photopolymerizable composition does not contain any organic solvent. 8. The chemical mechanical polishing pad of claim 1 , wherein said photopolymerizable composition further comprising a plasticizer.
