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. In one or more embodiments, polishing pads with improved properties may be produced by an additive manufacturing process, such as a three-dimensional (3D) printing process. Some embodiments 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, advanced polishing pads 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, where each layer may represent at least one polymer composition, and/or regions of different compositions. Embodiments can also provide polishing pads with polymeric layers that may be interpenetrating polymer networks.

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: Polishing articles and methods of manufacturing polishing articles used in polishing processes and cleaning processes are provided. More particularly, implementations disclosed herein relate to composite polishing articles having tunable properties such as hydrophilicity and zeta potential. 3D printed chemical-mechanical planarization (CMP) pads composed of UV curable acrylic chemistry are generally hydrophobic in nature. Such hydrophobic behavior affects the wetting properties with abrasive-based polishing slurries such as ceria-base slurries. However, in order to increase the planarization and removal rate while decreasing defects, hydrophilic pads are preferred. In addition, it is desirable that the zeta potential (Zp) of the pads be tunable over a wide range of conditions at different pH values. Implementations of the present disclosure include methods for increasing the hydrophilicity and tuning the Zp of the pads with anionic additives and pads produced using these methods.
