Title:
CERIUM OXIDE ABRASIVE AND METHOD FOR POLISHING SUBSTRATE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3462052
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an abrasive which can be used for polishing a surface to be polished not only with no flaws, but also with high speed, by preparing a primary powder of CeO2 which has specific values with respect to a range, a central value, and a maximum value for particle diameters; mixing the primary powder with an aqueous solution containing ammo nium polyacrylate as a dispersant; and processing the mixture into a slurry comprising a powder having specific values with respect to a range, a central value, and a maximum value for particle diameters, dispersed in the solution.
SOLUTION: A cerium compound such as Ce(CO3)2.2H2O is calcined at 600 to 900°C for 5 to 300min under an oxidative atmosphere to produce CeO2, then the product is crushed using a jet mill, thereby obtaining a primary CeO2 powder having a particle diameter range of 10 to 600nm, a central value of 100 to 250nm and a maximum value of 600nm or less. The CeO2 powder is mixed with an aqueous solution of a dispersnat such as ammonium polyacrylate, and the mixture is subjected to ultrasonic dispersion with stirring, to thereby prepare a slurry. The slurry is diluted with additional water and is passed through a filter, to obtain an abrasive in a slurry form containing, dispersed therein, a CeO2 powder having a specific surface area of 7 to 45m2/g, a Zeta potential of -100mV to -10mV, an average particle diameter of 200 to 400nm, a width for a half value in a particle size distribution of 300nm or less and a pH of 7 to 10.
