Abstract

We developed a novel method to synthesize the polystyrene-SiO2 composite abrasive with raspberry structure. The SiO2 nanoparticles were embedded by the polystyrene microsphere. This raspberry-like composite abrasive had lots of advantages for CMP abrasive, for example, the hardness of composite abrasive could easily be controlled by the proportion of SiO 2 and the cushioning effect of soft polystyrene core could decrease the excessive mechanical damage caused by hard silica abrasive. Moreover, this structure made sure the stability of composite abrasive in the polishing process. The shape of composite particles was sphere and monodisperse. The size of polystyrene-SiO2 could be controlled in the range from 50 ~ 300 nm by adjusting the amount of styrene monomer. The removal rate in polishing test depended on the proportion of SiO2 and hardness of composite abrasive.
