Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of metal processing, and in particular relates to a chemical mechanical polishing liquid and a polishing method for soft magnetic alloys. Background Art

[0002] Soft magnetic alloys, primarily composed of elements such as iron (Fe), chromium (Cr), silicon (Si), and aluminum (Al), play an indispensable role in numerous key fields, including electronics and information technology, power transmission, aerospace, and precision instrument manufacturing, thanks to their superior properties, including high magnetic permeability, low coercivity, and low hysteresis loss. They are key materials for various precision instruments and navigation equipment, motors, sensors, and magnetic recording heads. With the continuous advancement of technology, the requirements for the surface quality and precision of soft magnetic alloys are increasing. Surface quality directly affects the magnetic properties, corrosion resistance, and service life of soft magnetic alloys.

[0003] Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) is an ultra-precision machining process that combines chemical reaction and mechanical removal. Through the coupling between the polishing pad, polishing slurry and workpiece, the workpiece surface is continuously refined. It can effectively remove microscopic defects on the workpiece surface, reduce surface roughness and improve surface flatness, thereby meeting the strict requirements of soft magnetic alloys in high-end applications.

[0004] As a core component of chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) technology, the performance of polishing fluids directly determines the quality, efficiency, and environmental friendliness of material surface processing. The polishing fluids used in traditional CMP processes typically contain large amounts of chemical reagents, such as strong oxidants, acids, and bases. If these chemicals are discharged without proper treatment after polishing, they can cause serious pollution to the natural environment, including soil and water. Furthermore, traditional polishing fluids and methods often produce suboptimal surface roughness and flatness when polishing soft magnetic alloys. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to solve at least one problem in the prior art and to provide a chemical mechanical polishing liquid and a polishing method for soft magnetic alloys.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention proposes a chemical mechanical polishing liquid for soft magnetic alloys, the polishing liquid being composed of the following raw material components in weight percentage: 1.3wt% to 1.8wt% of a chelating agent, 10wt% to 13wt% of an abrasive, 7wt% to 9wt% of a pH buffer, 3wt% to 3.5wt% of a corrosion inhibitor, 11wt% to 13wt% of an oxidant, and the remainder being deionized water, the abrasive being acidic silica sol, the oxidant being hydrogen peroxide, the corrosion inhibitor being at least one of glycine, polyaspartic acid, glutamic acid, and chitosan, the pH of the polishing liquid being 3 to 5, and the pH buffer being a citric acid-sodium citrate buffer.

[0008] As an optional embodiment, the content of silicon dioxide in the acidic silica sol is 30%, and the particle size of the acidic silica sol is 10 nm to 20 nm.

[0009] As an optional embodiment, the citric acid-sodium citrate buffer solution is prepared by mixing citric acid and sodium citrate in a mass ratio of (0.5-1.5):(2-4). The mass ratio of citric acid to sodium citrate in the citric acid-sodium citrate buffer solution can be (0.5:2), (0.5:4), (1:2), or (1:3), which can be configured according to the pH adjustment requirements and the contents of the other components in the polishing liquid.

[0010] As an optional embodiment, the citric acid-sodium citrate buffer solution is prepared by mixing citric acid and sodium citrate in a mass ratio of 1:3.

[0011] As an optional embodiment, when preparing the polishing liquid, the various raw material components are mixed, subjected to ultrasonic vibration treatment, and stirred to form a uniform and stable suspension.

[0012] The present invention also proposes a polishing method for polishing soft magnetic alloys, comprising the following steps:

[0013] Grinding of soft magnetic alloys to remove deep scratches on their surfaces;

[0014] The ground soft magnetic alloy is subjected to chemical mechanical polishing using a rough polishing slurry to reduce the roughness of the soft magnetic alloy surface to a submicron level. The rough polishing process is as follows: the polishing disk speed is 60 rpm to 90 rpm, the flow rate of the polishing liquid is 10 mL / min to 15 mL / min, the polishing pressure is 30 kPa to 40 kPa, and the polishing time is 40 min to 60 min. After polishing, the soft magnetic alloy surface is cleaned and blown dry.

[0015] The soft magnetic alloy after rough polishing is subjected to chemical mechanical polishing and fine polishing using the polishing liquid described in any one of claims 1 to 6 to obtain a soft magnetic alloy with a smooth and flat surface. The polishing process of the fine polishing is as follows: the polishing disk speed is 60rpm~80rpm, the flow rate of the polishing liquid is 3mL / min~5mL / min, the polishing pressure is 30kpa~40kpa, the polishing time is 40min~60min, and the surface of the soft magnetic alloy is cleaned and blown dry after polishing.

[0016] As an optional implementation, the rough polishing slurry is prepared by mixing hydrogen peroxide, acidic silica sol, cerium oxide and deionized water.

[0017] As an optional embodiment, the grinding is performed using sandpaper with a mesh size of 2000 to 4000, and the polishing pad used in the chemical mechanical polishing process is made of frosted leather. The mesh size of the sandpaper can be selected according to the grinding roughness requirement, and can be 2000 mesh, 2500 mesh, 3000 mesh, or 4000 mesh.

[0018] As an optional embodiment, the polished surface of the soft magnetic alloy is cleaned with deionized water and anhydrous ethanol in sequence and blown dry with compressed air. The Sa value of the soft magnetic alloy after fine polishing is 0.104nm to 0.123nm.

[0019] Introduction to the working mechanism of polishing liquid and soft magnetic alloy in the CMP process:

[0020] The metal elements Al, Cr and Fe in the soft magnetic alloy are oxidized by H2O2 to form an oxide layer on the metal surface. + The Fe oxides are dissolved, while the Cr and Al oxides are almost not dissolved. 2+ and Fe 3+ The oxides produced in CMP are continuously removed by mechanical action, which improves the surface defects of the alloy and eventually forms an ultra-smooth surface of the soft magnetic alloy. Among them, the nano-scale SiO2 particles in the acidic silica sol remove the surface oxide layer and metal debris through physical friction with the help of mechanical grinding, thereby providing basic smoothness, and the acidic environment of the sol (pH 3.5) can inhibit the agglomeration of particles, ensure uniform grinding, and guarantee the dispersion stability; the chelating agent participates in the reaction, on the one hand, it dissolves and binds to Fe 3+ It forms a soluble complex to accelerate the dissolution of metals. On the other hand, its weak reducing property can partially reduce Cr 6+ Cr 3+ , avoid Cr 6+ Toxic oxides hinder the reaction; corrosion inhibitors such as glycine can form an adsorption film on the metal surface, effectively preventing direct contact between the metal and the corrosive medium, slowing down the corrosion rate of the metal, and reducing equipment damage while ensuring the smooth progress of the reaction.

[0021] Introduction to the efficacy of components in polishing liquid:

[0022] The high-hardness silica particles in the acidic silica sol can provide efficient grinding capabilities, ensuring polishing efficiency and effectiveness; the nano-scale monodisperse particle size achieves uniform surface removal, avoiding local over- or under-polishing; the low friction coefficient combined with dynamic lubrication significantly reduces surface scratches and damage; the low surface activity enables it to maintain stable dispersion in acidic environments, extending the service life of the abrasive and reducing the frequency of replacement.

[0023] As an oxidant, hydrogen peroxide itself possesses strong oxidizing properties. It oxidizes the metal surface to high-valent oxides through oxidative corrosion, increasing the chemical dissolution rate. After forming a dense oxide film, hydrogen peroxide and a chelating agent synergistically strip it, achieving dynamic oxide layer regulation, balancing passivation and corrosion, and increasing the removal rate of impurities and defects on the metal surface, thereby improving the surface quality of the polished metal. Furthermore, hydrogen peroxide is low-cost and produces non-polluting byproducts, making it a green and environmentally friendly oxidant.

[0024] The chelating agent can react with some metal ions in the soft magnetic alloy to promote the dissolution of the material; the chelating agent is preferably oxalic acid or humic acid. Oxalic acid and humic acid are non-toxic and harmless organic acids, environmentally friendly, and can prevent metal ions from being released and polluting the environment.

[0025] Corrosion inhibitors can effectively inhibit excessive corrosion and protect the surface of soft magnetic alloys. Glycine, polyaspartic acid, glutamic acid, and chitosan are preferred because they are green and environmentally friendly.

[0026] The pH buffer is preferably a citric acid-sodium citrate buffer, which is green and pollution-free, and replaces traditional strong acid reagents to provide a stable acidic environment for the polishing process, which not only reduces the harm to the environment, but also can more accurately control the chemical reaction rate. It maintains the pH of the polishing liquid at 3-5 through pH control, ensuring the chelating activity of the chelating agent and inhibiting the rapid decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. It also plays an important role in pH buffering, and can effectively resist the influence of a small amount of external acid or base on the pH value of the system, ensuring the relative stability of the reaction environment, and providing suitable and stable pH conditions for the entire reaction process.

[0027] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the present invention adopts a special ratio of chelating agent, abrasive, pH buffer, corrosion inhibitor and oxidant, and the pH value of the polishing liquid is 3-5. The components work synergistically with each other, thereby improving the polishing effect of the polishing liquid on the soft magnetic alloy, removing micro defects on the surface of the soft magnetic alloy, and making the surface of the soft magnetic alloy smooth and flat with low roughness after polishing; each component in the polishing liquid is selected from green, environmentally friendly and pollution-free reagents, so that the polishing liquid will not cause pollution to the environment after polishing, and the preparation process is simple; the polishing method adopts a combination of grinding, chemical mechanical polishing, rough polishing and fine polishing to achieve atomic-level removal and flattening of the surface of the soft magnetic alloy, thereby preparing an ultra-smooth surface with almost no damage.

[0028] The features and advantages of the present invention will be described in detail through embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
