    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to advanced polishing pads with tunable chemical, material and structural properties, and new methods of manufacturing the same. According to one or more embodiments of the disclosure, it has been discovered that a polishing pad with improved properties may be produced by an additive manufacturing process, such as a three-dimensional (3D) printing process. Embodiments of the present disclosure thus may provide an advanced polishing pad that has discrete features and geometries, formed from at least two different materials that include functional polymers, functional oligomers, reactive diluents, addition polymer precursor compounds, catalysts, and curing agents. For example, the advanced polishing pad may be formed from a plurality of polymeric layers, by the automated sequential deposition of at least one polymer precursor composition followed by at least one curing step, wherein each layer may represent at least one polymer composition, and/or regions of different compositions. Embodiments of the disclosure further provide a polishing pad with polymeric layers that may be interpenetrating polymer networks.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to a polishing article, and apparatus and methods of chemical mechanical polishing substrates using the polishing article. In some embodiments, the polishing article, such as a polishing pad, includes multiple layers in which one or more layers (i.e., at least the top layer) includes a plurality of nano-fibers that a positioned to contact a substrate during a polishing process. In one embodiment, a polishing article comprises a layer having a thickness less than about 0.032 inches, and the layer comprising fibers having a diameter of about 10 nanometers to about 200 micro meters.
