Example:
Mixer/aerosol component is the promise letter disposable static mixers of series 160AA, equipped with Nordson Air CapTMAir blast component, the promise letter EFD. (Nordson EFD, Providence, RI) of Rhode Island Providence).Air Closure assemblies are commonly referred to as air blast nozzle, are designed to the end of the static mixer of nozzle of the adaptation with given pore size End.Air blast nozzle only in static mixer nozzle downstream by gas source (such as nitrogen or air) high speed feed-in, with It is aerosolized to be carried out to it that PU mixtures leave the end of static mixer.Static mixer and air closure assemblies are all one Secondary property.The composition that CMP pad is prepared for spraying is shown in the following table 1 and 2.Whole amount in table 1 and 2 is by solid The parts by weight of meter.
Table 1:Two components compositions
1. the English Weida (Invista, Wichita, KS) of Kansas State Wichita;2. the section of philadelphia, pa gathers Sub- company (Chemtura Corp., Philadelphia, PA);3. the figure new high-tech material advanced in years of New York Waterford (Momentive Performance Materials,Waterford,NY);4. the Dow Chemical of available (The Dow Chemical Co.,Midland,MI)。

1. the English Weida (Invista, Wichita, KS) of Kansas State Wichita;2. the section of philadelphia, pa gathers Sub- company (Chemtura Corp., Philadelphia, PA);3. the figure new high-tech material advanced in years of New York Waterford (Momentive Performance Materials,Waterford,NY);4. the Dow Chemical of available (The Dow Chemical Co.,Midland,MI);5. Akzo Nobel N.V. (Akzo of Arnhem, netherlands Nobel,Amsterdam,Netherlands)。
Composition is pumped into static mixer under absolute pressure 110kPa, is mixed in static mixer, and The 570mm diameter Teflon moulds with concave surface form are applied under ambient pressure, this can generate base thickness The CMP pad of 3mm, and with the huge line of a succession of annular concentric narrow and long rectangular protrusion form extended from base mat Reason, the cross sectional dimensions of protrusion is 1.25mm wide and 0.8mm high.Spray flow is controlled by the pump speed into static mixer Body flow rate.
Example 1:Composition in upper table 1 sprays under 141.6L/min air blast flow rate of gas, at 100 DEG C Cure 14 it is small when and demould.Resulting articles cross-sectional image analysis shows that average pore size from the top-to-bottom all one of sample Cause, few air pockets and all be not more than 100 μm.The average pore size in section is 27 μm.Must preferably have and be equal to or small In 40 μm of aperture.
Example 2A and 2B:Air blast flow rate of gas of the composition in the range of 0-141.6L/min in upper table 2 Lower sprinkling.The following table 3 lists the density of the finished article of the composition using a variety of atomization gas flow rates and being averaged for measurement Aperture.
Test method:Following test gained molded articles, and the results show is in the following table 2:
Graphical analysis:Gained mechanograph scanning electron micrograph (Scanning electron micrographs, SEM) deep understanding to aperture average value is provided.Image (not shown) used is the mould specified from the top to bottom in graphical analysis The section of product (image 1=is pushed up, image 4=bottoms).
DensityIts submergence is compared by the weight of the relatively more given mechanograph of Archimedes method (Archimedes method) Weight in water measures.
Average pore sizeEach institute is measured by carrying out manual image analysis to selected numerical apertures (250-300 hole) The aperture of hole is selected, then it is averaged to measure.
Table 3:CMP pad aperture and density
As shown in upper table 3, by the flow rate of gas of air blast lid for realizing small average pore size and required hole Gap rate is most important.If flow rate of gas is too low, then the fluid spray of generation is appropriate for being formed in shock surface Excessively thick and/or speed is too low for the bubble of size.Therefore, according to the present invention, the porosity of CMP pad and average pore size can To change only by the flow rate of gas for changing the air blast lid in equipment.Therefore, in example 2A or even quiet Very big hole can also be formed when being thoroughly mixed in state mixer;And apply and cured polyurethanes reaction product Aperture it is unrelated with the amount or quality mixed in static mixer.
On average pore size, upper table 2 is shown as flow rate from 141.6 standard liter/mins (L/min) drops to 56.6L/ Min, the average-size of hole dramatically increase, and number of apertures declines.Based on these data, air flow rate is preferably 85L/min is most preferably 141.6L/min to realize required CMP pad average pore size.The density of mechanograph is flowed with gas Rate is inversely proportional, the about 0.95gm/cc under the about 0.8gm/cc under highest flow rate of gas to minimum flow rate of gas.Tool The composition for having trace element provides the density and average pore size in preferred scope of CMP pad.
As shown in upper table 3, method of the invention realizes spray reaction mixture, by retaining environment sky as indicated above Gas generates hole by adding polymeric microspheres.In example 2, article is sprayed with microsphere, microsphere sets are into major part The hole observed.This confirms the fabulous control of porosity and predictability.The uniformity instruction of average pore size in overhead line Microsphere keeps complete in entire technique.The article of example 1 has similar density and only in the case of no polymeric microspheres The hole generated by embedding air, so as to prove the flexibility of the method for the present invention.
