Abstract
The invention provides a polishing pad suitable for polishing at least one of semiconductor, optical, magnetic or electromechanical substrates. The polishing pad includes a polyurea polishing layer and a polyurea matrix. The polyurea matrix has a soft phase and a hard phase. The soft phase is formed from soft segments and the hard phase is formed from diisocyanate hard segments and a curative agent. The soft segment areva copolymer of aliphatic fluorine-free polymer groups and a fluorocarbon having a length of a least six carbons. The polyurea matrix is cured with the curative agent and includes gas or liquid-filled polymeric microelements. The soft segments form a fluorine rich phase that concentrates adjacent the polymeric microelements and at the polishing layer during polishing. The polishing layer remains hydrophilic during polishing in shear conditions.
