摘要:
A pedestal pad (workpiece supporting table pad) is arranged on the top of a pedestal (workpiece supporting table) for temporarily placing and holding a pre-polished or post-polished wafer (workpiece). This pedestal pad is formed of resin, and at least a surface of the pedestal pad which comes into contact with the wafer is non-absorbable to a fluid. The tissue of the pedestal pad is dense and smooth, and does not have any cavity, such as fine holes, which holds the fluid.
