preparation example Construction

[0145] The compositions of the present invention can be prepared without any particularity, but by dissolving or dispersing the abovementioned ingredients (A), (B) and (C) and optionally (D) and / or (E) in an aqueous medium, in particular performed in deionized water. For this purpose, customary and standard mixing methods and mixing equipment can be used, such as stirred tanks, in-line dissolvers, high-shear high-speed mixers, ultrasonic mixers, homogenizer nozzles or convective mixers. The composition of the invention thus obtained is preferably filterable through a filter having suitable mesh openings to remove coarse-grained particles such as agglomerates or aggregates of finely divided solid abrasive particles (A).

[0146] The compositions of the invention are well suited for the methods of the invention.

[0147] In the method of the invention, the substrate of an electronic, mechanical and optical device, especially an electronic device, most preferably an integrated c...
