Description

Closed casting mold system and method for manufacturing polishing pads
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of integrated circuit manufacturing, in particular to a closed pouring mold system and a closed pouring mold method for manufacturing a polishing pad.
Background
Polishing pads are an indispensable polishing consumable in integrated circuit manufacturing, and an important one of them is polyurethane polishing pads. Polyurethane polishing pads are widely used in chemical mechanical polishing processes for integrated circuit manufacturing because of the advantages of customizable hardness, elasticity and compressibility during polishing pad production, and easy availability of required wafer surface removal rates. The polishing pad is mainly formed by mixing polyurethane and a chain extender and then adding a foaming material for pouring. The materials are mixed and then gradually cured and formed under the high-temperature condition. The casting material is good and bad in molding, and the other key point is a casting mold except for material mixing ratio and vulcanization temperature control. The mixed materials are poured into a mould, and the mould is directly sent into equipment with the mixed materials for vulcanization. The design of the mold directly influences the uniformity of temperature control of the material during vulcanization, and if the temperature control is not good, the problems of non-uniform reaction of the molding material, defective stripes or non-uniform density and the like are caused.
The existing polyurethane polishing pad is generally prepared by mixing polyurethane and a chain extender, putting the mixture into an open temperature control mold, putting the mold into a vulcanizing box for heat preservation and vulcanization, and controlling the temperature by heating a medium in the reaction process. This method has the following disadvantages:
1) in the existing method, temperature control areas are only arranged at the bottom and the side wall of the mold, the top cover is not provided with a temperature control device, and the temperature uniformity of the inner area cannot be well guaranteed by the whole mold system. When the mixed material is introduced into the mold in a large amount, the temperature of the bottom and surface of the mixed material is not uniform at the start of the reaction because the bottom material contacts the mold but the upper material does not directly contact the mold and the upper material does not have a temperature control function.
2) The internal temperature control medium of the existing method is flowing liquid, and the heat conduction in the flowing process of the liquid is influenced by the flow speed and the path, so that the temperature difference may exist in the mould, and the temperature is not uniform.
The above-mentioned disadvantages may cause the problems of defective stripes and uneven material density of the material after casting and vulcanization molding.

The structure of the casting cavity may be determined according to the shape of the polishing pad to be manufactured. In order to meet the polishing requirements of most of the integrated circuit manufacturers in China at present, the prepared polishing pad is usually a circular pad, and correspondingly, the pouring cavity is a cylindrical cavity, so in a preferred example provided by the invention, the base 11 is a circular base 11, the annular side wall 12 is an annular side wall 12, the top cover 13 is a circular top cover 13, an annular groove is formed in the base 11, the annular side wall 12 is fixed in the annular groove, the top cover 13 can also be correspondingly provided with the annular groove, and the upper part of the annular side wall 12 is correspondingly embedded in the annular groove of the top cover 13.

Such a specification can produce a polishing pad that meets most of the market needs.
In order to further improve the temperature control accuracy, in a preferred example, referring to fig. 1, the base 11 is divided into 8 concentric heating regions 111 with equal width along the diameter direction (the central heating region 111 is circular, the other 7 heating regions 111 are annular, and the radii of the annular width and the central circular are equal), each heating region 111 is provided with a temperature measuring point 112, the temperature measuring points of each heating region 111 are located on the same diameter of the base 11, the temperature measuring points 112 in the adjacent heating regions 111 are located on opposite sides of the central temperature measuring point of the base 11, for example, the temperature measuring point 112 of the outermost heating region 111 is located on the left side in fig. 1, the temperature measuring point 112 of the adjacent heating region 111 is located on the right side in fig. 1, and these are arranged in this order, the temperature condition of the bottom of the pouring cavity can be mastered more accurately, so that the temperature of each area can be adjusted more accurately, and the temperature uniformity of each area is ensured.

Also to further improve the temperature control accuracy, in a preferred example, referring to fig. 4 and 5, the top cover 13 is divided into 8 concentric equal-width regions (the center is a circle, the other 7 equal-width regions are rings, and the radii of the ring width and the center circle are equal) along the diameter direction, the center of the top cover 13 is provided with the pouring hole 131, the exhaust holes 132 are distributed in 3 equal-width regions around the pouring hole 131, that is, the exhaust holes 132 are distributed in the 3 equal-width regions at the center of the top cover 13, the 5 equal-width regions outside the equal-width region where the exhaust holes 132 are located are 5 heating regions 133, that is, the 5 heating regions 133 are annularly provided around the exhaust holes 132, each heating region 133 corresponds to the heat conducting groove, each heating region 133 is provided with a temperature measuring point 134, each temperature measuring point 134 can be provided with one temperature measuring device, the temperature measuring points 134 of the heating zones 133 are located on the same diameter of the top cover 13, the temperature measuring points 134 in the adjacent heating zones 133 are located on two opposite sides of the center of the top cover 13, for example, the temperature measuring point 134 of the outermost heating zone 133 is located on the right side in fig. 4, and the temperature measuring point 134 of the adjacent heating zone 133 is located on the left side in fig. 4, and thus the temperature condition of the upper part of the casting cavity can be grasped more accurately by sequentially setting the temperature measuring points 134, the temperature of each zone can be adjusted more accurately, and the temperature uniformity of each zone can be ensured.
Of course, in other examples, there may be other options for the arrangement of the heating areas and the temperature measuring points on the base 11, the top cover 13 and the annular side wall 12, but the above arrangement has been proved by experiments of the inventor of the present application to be effective in achieving accurate and fast temperature control.
The number and distribution of the exhaust holes 132 and the pouring holes 131 can be flexibly arranged according to the requirement. However, in a preferred example, the number of the exhaust holes 132 is 12, 12 exhaust holes 132 are symmetrically distributed on the top cover 13, for example, as shown in fig. 4, wherein 4 exhaust holes 132 are in one group and are uniformly distributed at intervals on one circular line, another 8 exhaust holes 132 are in another group and are uniformly distributed at intervals on another circular line, two groups of the exhaust holes 132 are concentrically arranged, and the top cover 13 is further provided with a pouring hole 131 located at the edge of the top cover 13.
The invention also provides a method for manufacturing a polishing pad, which is performed based on the closed casting mold system in any of the above schemes, so that the introduction of the closed casting mold system can be fully referred to here, and is not repeated for the sake of brevity. The method for manufacturing the polishing pad generally comprises the steps of mixing a mixed material, such as polyurethane and a chain extender, adding a foaming material, pouring the mixture into a pouring cavity of the closed pouring mold system in any scheme, accurately controlling the temperature through a heating resistance wire and a temperature measuring device which are arranged on a base, a top cover and an annular side wall in the pouring process, so that a uniform and stable controllable environment is formed in the pouring process, then feeding the mold with the mixed material into equipment for vulcanization, discharging gas generated in the vulcanization process through a vent hole in the top cover, thus reducing bubbles in a molding mixture, removing the mold after curing and molding, and performing cutting inspection on the formed pouring body, wherein specific parameters such as pouring and vulcanization temperature can be set according to process requirements, and strict limitation is not required. By adopting the invention, the problems of stripe defects, density unevenness and the like caused by temperature unevenness can be effectively reduced, and the quality of the prepared polishing pad is improved.
In order to verify the effect of the invention, the inventor carried out a large number of experiments, including comparative experiments of temperature control and temperature non-control by using the closed pouring mold system of the invention. The specific experimental procedures are referred to as follows.
The polyurethane and mocha polymers become solid after vulcanization and heating, and then the solid polymers are cut into round slices with the thickness of about 2.5 mm by a slicer; the height of the casting cavity (i.e. the height of the annular side wall) is 100mm and the uppermost and lowermost sheets will be discarded, whereby about 48 sheets will be obtained (since after vulcanization the upper and bottom surfaces will have a concave-convex surface, these two sheets are not normally used as finished products). Under strong light, the sheet was observed to have defective streaks on the surface and agglomerated (uneven density) inside.
For comparison, 3 examples of temperature control and 3 examples of temperature non-control (turning off the temperature controller) are respectively carried out (the number of experiments in the actual process is far more than that, and the contents of the experiments are summarized in the specification).
