Abstract

La présente invention concerne un agent de polissage (5) pour le polissage mécanochimique d'une surface à polir sur un objet (1) à polir. L'agent de polissage a un pH de 8,5-12,0 et contient des particules d'oxyde de silicium ayant un diamètre moyen de particules (D50) de 20-150 nm et un rapport du diamètre de 90 % des particules (D90) au diamètre de 10 % des particules (D10) (D90/D10) de 1,6-10,0, un oxydant, et de l'eau.
