Abstract
There is disclosed a method for polishing a work wherein polishing liquid is supplied to a polishing pad, and a relative movement is carried out between the work and the polishing pad with pressing the work on the polishing pad, wherein the work of which press pressure was set to 0 to terminate polishing is released from the polishing pad within 45 seconds after the termination of polishing. When plural works are simultaneously polished, preferably only the work to which press pressure was set to 0 to terminate polishing is released from the polishing pad, and polishing of the other works is continued, which are released from the polishing pad after press pressure thereto is set 0 one by one. In the resultant work, corrosion on the surface of the work due to the polishing liquid can be suppressed, an amount of the cleaning liquid used in a cleaning process can be reduced, particles can be removed efficiently in a short time, almost no pits are formed on the surface after polishing, only few amounts of particles are adhered, and there is almost no deviation in the works.
