Description of the Invention: [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a novel composition comprising a colloidal particle or a cutting and lubricating composition, which is a novel cut of the fish, and is used for cutting hard and brittle materials ( For example, a semiconductor ingot or other brittle material) and a wire saw are used together, and the abrasive particles in the government are in the form of a slurry. "> [Prior Art] For a main gallery of the present invention, 4" *Application and Lu's cutting device (referred to as line ore) or "wire net" generally includes a column arranged parallel to each other and arranged at a fixed pitch Thin line. Pressing a workpiece at a diameter of (M0 to 0.20 mm), which is run in parallel with each other in the same direction, while pouring a liquid abrasive suspension fluid into the moving line as the workpiece and the entry a liquid curtain provided between the wires, thereby providing an abrasive coating on the wire to cut the workpiece into a wafer, disc or sheet member through a circulation-circulation system by abrasive grinding (which is about to be in the wire network) Before the workpiece is struck, the "covering curtain" of the abrasive suspension is dropped onto the "net") and the liquid suspended abrasive particles are applied to the moving "net" or the wire. Therefore, carried by the liquid The abrasive particles are transferred through the coated wire to produce a grinding or cutting effect. The above-described slicing unit or machine (referred to as a wire saw) is described in U.S. Patent Nos. 3,478,732, 3,525,324, 5,269'275, And U.S. Patent No. 6,6,2,834 to Ward et al., the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. 151503.doc 201215669 is provided between the abrasive particles for electrostatic and spatial repulsive force.

In addition, the compositions require strong mixing to maintain a uniform suspension of the particles and are stagnant. The suspension settles rapidly under conditions and even during the slicing of the workpiece. Therefore, there is still a further need for a new cutting and lubricating composition which is uniformly supplied to the non-abrasive particles for a long time to condense or self-suspension. Dropping out the homogeneously dispersed abrasive material that forms the "hard cake" makes it more efficient and consistent to cut the 5 tangent workpiece by the abrasive: 1: coarse/cut in the composition. In addition, the composition has lubricity and Heat transfer properties to eliminate J heat = heat at the cutting site thereby increasing the working life of the wire and avoiding downtime. Finally, the article should provide a long-term stable abrasive [invention] The present invention relates to a cutting and full-slip combination # for cutting hard and brittle materials (such as semiconductor materials = energy materials, optical and optoelectronic materials, _, flower two cutting and grinding as a special piece of steam: machine = Dedicated materials or ceramic components for precise cutting of early machine benefits or components of other types of devices are effective and usable.

A preferred polyelectrolyte is polyacrylic acid-copolymerization-maleic acid (pACM), but homopolymers or other copolymers of similar nature and structure may also function. One object of the present invention is to provide a cutting and lubricating composition that allows the abrasive material to be uniformly distributed to the coating of the cutting line such that solid particles condense or fall out of the slurry. Another object of the present invention is to provide a cutting and lubricating composition wherein the X abrasive cutting material is suspended in the composition and remains suspended even after prolonged stagnation and no hard cake formation or particle coagulation. The ancient target is to provide sheets, wafers, discs or special shaped parts suitable for (especially) semiconductor and solar installations. Other objects and applications of the compositions of the present invention will be apparent from the following drawings and description, and a more complete understanding of the invention. [Embodiment] According to the present invention, a novel suspension and/or a lubricating "carrier" combination is used for the type of wear of an ingot slice made of a brittle and hard material - efficiency and productivity. , Tao i5I503.doc 201215669 High-quality thin-film components for porcelain and photovoltaic cell wafers or substrates. The lubricating composition of the present invention maintains the abrasive particles in a non-condensing suspension to allow for more uniform delivery of the abrasive particles to the cutting space (either between the line and the workpiece, or at both ends of the cutting portion) ), the result is a great improvement in the cutting or cutting accuracy and efficiency of the machine. In addition, the lubricating composition provides lubrication to the dicing line and absorbs the frictional heat generated at the dicing surface. Thus, these characteristics extend the useful life of the wire or braid and cause any warpage, roughness or thickness variations or subsurface damage to the surface of the workpiece (not allowed in semiconductor, optical glass or photovoltaic devices) Defects) are minimized. The lubricating/suspension "carrier" of the present invention is prepared by mixing the following at a temperature of about 35 ° C or below. (a) from about 3 to 6% by weight of an organic ion polyelectrolyte; (b) from about 0.1% to about 10% by weight of a nonionic surfactant; and (c) from about 80 to 99% by weight of a polyalkylene glycol A solvent wherein the alkylene group contains 2 to 5 carbon atoms. Preferably, the diols are selected from the group consisting of polyethylene glycol, polypropylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, polyisobutylene glycol, and copolymerized glycols thereof; and wherein the glycols are based on total formulations The weight percentage) is from about 8 to 99% by weight of a diol having a molecular weight of from about 200 to 600 (preferably from about 200 to 400, and most preferably from about 2 to 300). The polyelectrolyte fraction is then neutralized to a pH of about 4.0 to 5.5 with a suitable Bronsted test, thus forming colloidal particles. It is also possible to use the appropriate Lewis base to carry out the 151503.doc 201215669. The gel block formed by the filial piety is not as good as the use of the bristles: the best and the stability of the obtained liquid of the particles is reduced. . With hydrazine, the gel particles can be stored separately in a polar solvent. Abrasive materials suitable for use in the above compositions may include diamond, vermiculite, tungsten carbide bismuth, boron carbide, tantalum nitride, cerium oxide, aluminum oxide or other hard coarse sand "powder" & The best abrasive material is carbonized stone. In general, the average or ♦ value particle size range is about 5 to 5 microns; and preferably 8 to 2 microns. It depends on the international "FEpA or JIS" grade and depends on the abrasive liquid to the specific cut. Refer to J or the application method of the grinding process. According to the present invention, it is more preferred to provide a neutralized lubricating carrier composition (between Ο and $5 comprising: Ο) of about 93.5 to 99% by weight of one or more polyethylene glycols, wherein The polyethylene glycol has a molecular weight of about 200 to 400; and thereby the composition has room temperature conditions (25. The viscosity of the underarm is about 50 to 30 〇 cps; (b) about 3 to 6% by weight of polyacrylic acid. _ copolymerization_maleic acid (pAcM) having a molecular weight in the range of about 1500 to 5 Å; and (c) about 3% by weight of a nonionic surfactant. Preferably, the PACM is oxidized by four. The methylammonium (tmaH) moiety is neutralized to a stoichiometric amount to produce a final pH in the above range. Examples of organic polyelectrolytes (anionic PE) suitable for use in the present invention include, but are not limited to, pH partial neutralization Polymers of the following: *Acrylic; Methacrylic acid; Maleic acid 151503.doc 201215669 Aromatic sulfonic acid-based aralkyl alkenyl sulfonic acids (ie, for example, styrene sulfonic acid) Sulfonic acids (ie, for example, 2-methylpropenyloxyethyl acid), propylene sulfonamides, etc. Or a copolymer of other suitable monomer units. A preferred polyelectrolyte comprises a molecular weight of about i, _ to 1 Å, a polyacrylic acid (PAA), a molecular weight of about 5 〇〇 to 8 〇〇〇. Polyacrylic acid copolymerized maleic acid (PACM), and the like. The "un-neutralized" form of the above polyelectrolyte f (ie, the anion pE in the free acid state) does not function in the present invention and does not show Enhances the soft settling characteristics of the PEG suspension of SlC. Only the partially neutralized form of the anion PE or electrolyte will be suitably used to form the desired gel block or colloidal colloidal particles. Produced in situ by neutralization of the example PACM mainly present in the pEG medium (because of the "effective" t-charge difference from the actual Μ of the surrounding coffee environment) at temperatures below about 35t Such desired colloidal particles. The neutralized example - polymer chain is highly ionic in nature and is present in a substantially non-aqueous, polar, but nonionic coffee medium. It should be noted that the coffee medium The coffee environment must contain about 〇.5 to water. This water provides a gel. The block is stored in a stable form in the auxiliary polarity because the PEG system is said to have a polar nature, but the nonionic nature will also have the partially neutralized example PACM County and the polar portion of the pEG polymer bond. Interaction (ie, partial miscibility) that produces "gelatinous 151503.doc 201215669 particles" which is similar to an expanded polymer in a solvent but does not dissolve and has a different composition than the surrounding PEG medium and Different ionic properties. This different ion is necessary for the proper formation of the example "gel block". For large-scale applications, the concentration of abrasive material in the suspension medium can range. It is about 5 to 7 wt%, preferably about (9) to "weight 0/〇" and most preferably about 35 to 50 wt%. Other polar solvents which may be included and used as a suspension or dispersant include alcohols, guanamines, esters, ethers, ketones, glycol ethers or sulfoxides. Specifically, examples of the polar solvent are dimercaptosulfoxide, dimercaptoacetamide (DMAC), N-decylpyrrolidone (oxime), γ·butyrolactone, diethylene glycol acetamidine, and Propylene glycol methyl ether, tripropylene glycol monomethyl ether, and the like. Another component of the invention involves the cooperation of different polyethylene glycol (pEG) groups as the medium (in the present invention, the "gel block" is formed therein). The pEG matrix may comprise from about 50 to 99% by weight of a preferred molecular weight of from 2 to 300 PEG (based on the weight percent of the total formulation) and from about 1 to about 5 weight percent of the molecular weight range from about 300 to about 1500. (based on the weight of the total formulation). The higher molecular weight PEG must be soluble in the lower molecular weight matrix PEG at all mixing ratios. Such media comprising a PEG mixture or other diol will result in a lubricated, partially neutralized carrier of the invention having a high viscosity. This may be advantageous for certain abrasive or other applications known to those skilled in the art. Method of Making the Carrier In order to properly form the desired gel block, the PACM as an example of the appropriate poly 151503.doc 201215669 electrolyte material described herein must be partially neutralized in the PEG medium. If the water is outside the PEG Neutralization of the medium (the base and the example paCM is initiated here). Then, the neutralized pACM is added to the PEG, and the microgel block which is mainly responsible for the stabilization of the abrasive particles in the carrier cannot be properly formed. It may not be formed at all, and the carrier material will not function properly. This example PACM must first be added to the PEG medium by mixing to provide a homogeneous dispersion, followed by neutralization with a suitable base to a desired pH of from about 4 Torr to 5.50. By adding the test first, followed by the addition of the example pACM, a moderate degree of neutralization of the example PACM chain occurs, which results in a variable degree of ionic character of the neutralized example PACM. Thus, gel block formation in the pEG medium will also vary' and the properties of the resulting system will be variable and inconsistent. The example PACM polymer bond is desirably homogenized for neutralization, which is most suitably achieved by first adding the example PACM to the PEG and adding the brunite base with constant stirring. In order to properly form the desired gel block, the neutralized pH of the PACM in the pEG medium must be at least about 4 Torr. Far below this, the example PACM would not be sufficiently neutralized to produce the high ionic properties required to form a localized ion gel block in the PEG solvent. When the added base exceeds the neutralization point (ie, pH ~heart 6), excess ionic species are added to the low ionic PEG medium, which reduces the localized example PACM chain to the surrounding PEG/aqueous medium. The difference in ionic strength between (Δμ). This decrease in Δ μ reduces the formation of the gel block, which depends in part on the significant difference in the ionic properties of the PEG/aqueous medium of the neutralized PACM (ie, high Δ from 151503.doc •10·201215669) . It has been clearly demonstrated by comprehensive testing that the carrier can maintain the suspension of abrasive particles only when properly formed into the desired "gel block", without any electrostatic or zeta potential repulsion. The formation of the gel block can be visually observed and measured. The product turbidity (i.e., 'turbidity) determined by visual inspection is a semi-quantitative indicator of the stability properties. - A more quantitative term known as a turbidimeter: it has been used to accurately determine the turbidity of the product by numerical values, and thus to accurately determine the relative number and density of the stabilized gel blocks by numerical values. The properties of the carrier were measured by using two quantitative measurement tools: 1) SSR (soft settling reading). This procedure measures the standard preparation of a standard shaft having a circular bottom of known diameter and surface area that is placed through a standard tapered bottom tube (where the bottom of the cone has the same diameter as the rounded bottom of the immersed shaft). Resistance (in grams or by weight). The lower the resistance against axial penetration over time, the more stable the slurry. These measurements were made in a calibrated tool manufactured by "IMada". For a suitably prepared composition of the invention, the SSR reading for the standard slurry is still "〇" after a few weeks. This is in sharp contrast to the improperly prepared composition which appears clear rather than turbid and which produces an SSR value of > 0 only after hours to days. In addition, as can be seen in Figure 2, these tests were performed on linear 1 > 〇 2 〇〇 and peg-400 slurries only after hours to one day to produce > S S § R readings. Ii) SVR (slurry volume remaining) ^ This procedure measures solids over time from the original 15I503.doc 201215669. The rate at which the syntactic slurry (where the solid dispersion accounts for 100% of the liquid slurry) is settled. In the unstable slurry, the hard cake is formed at the bottom of the container because the solids condense and fall out of the suspension, and the volume occupied by the suspended particles (SVR) rapidly decreases. Yes: Easy to draw this slurry properties over time. Further, particles which are not from the present invention in the slurry which is dropped from the suspension form a hard cake at the bottom of the container, which can be measured by the SSR program. In a suitably prepared composition of the invention, the SVR value drops a lot slower and eventually equilibrates well above the volume % of the non-concentrated liquid. In addition, as can be seen in Figure 1, the SSR associated with these SSL slurries is always read as "〇" regardless of the SVR reading or time. In the accompanying figure "Saturation of the SSL-160 series product stability" (ie, SVR diagram) and "SSL-160 series soft settling versus time" towel, with the addition of the neutralized PACM component bit # ' The degree of suspension of the "soft-settled" 9 liquid is increased (i.e., δδΙ^62>8π-161>δ8^16〇>>>ρΕ(}); ssl is the name given to the carrier of the present invention. Increasing the partially neutralized PAcm component level, the concentration in the "gel block" in the SSL medium increases, and thus the abrasive particles in the slurry are more resistant to settling or even falling over time. Resistance. In SSL-162, there is a high concentration of partially neutralized example pACM and also a high degree of carrier turbidity. This turbidity is determined by the partially neutralized example PACM. The light caused by the "gel block" of the domain is refracted and diffracted. The particle density of these gel blocks is slightly larger than that of the surrounding pEG_2〇〇 medium. 151503.doc -12· 201215669 can be made by alkali or alkaline earth or by non- Metal chlorooxidation 4 = oxidative desorption or bismuth oxychloride (TMAH)), to neutralize the stalk ammonium (preferably tetramethylammonium hydroxide) Special anionic polyelectrolyte. Neutralization. The maximum gel block formation at ACM concentration is better than the non-metal hydroxide. The following examples illustrate the practice of the invention. The list of examples is not intended to limit the scope of the King of the Moon in any way, as various modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and concept of the teachings in accordance with the above-described guidelines. Unless otherwise stated, All percentages are based on the weight. Example 1 Preparation of the carrier At a temperature of 25 ° C, 0.21 Kg of a polyacrylic acid-co-maleic acid 50% aqueous solution was added to 8.9 Kg of low water PEG 2 〇〇 (the system is effective) The mixture is stirred into a homogeneous dispersion. A solution of K.Kg tetramethylammonium hydroxide (ie, a 25% aqueous solution of Dinghe gossip or an effective amount of TMAH is slowly added to the stirred mixture to The pH of the total mixture is 5.0. Optionally, a nonionic surfactant (such as polymethyl oxo (i.e., examples including FC-99 or SAG-2001)) may be added to optimize surface tension, Minimum foaming and mention Wetting ability of the above neutralized mixture. The composition can be used as a suspension medium in wire cutting operations to provide a liquid suspension that settles for weeks or months even under stagnant storage conditions. Example 2 151503.doc 201215669 Preparation of the carrier 0.13 Kg of a 50% aqueous solution of polyacrylic acid having a peak molecular weight of about 3500 is added to 9.1 Kg of low water PEG-200 (which is effectively stirred at ambient temperature). The mixture is stirred into a homogeneous dispersion. . A 25% aqueous solution of 0.12 Kg of barium hydroxide solution or an effective amount of barium hydroxide solution was slowly added to the stirred mixture so that the pH of the total mixture was 5.0. Optionally, a nonionic surfactant such as polydecyloxyne (i.e., examples including FC-99 or SAG-2001) may be added to optimize surface tension, minimize foaming, and enhance the above neutralization. The wetting ability of the mixture. The composition has an effective amount of suspended cerium carbide abrasive particles having a desired particle size distribution for use in a wire saw for cutting a bismuth ingot.

PEG-200 98.21 96.47 94.4 For quantitative determination The “soft settling” properties of SiC slurries were designed and constructed by PPT research chemists and engineers to create an accurate measurement tool. The operation and concept of this tool are as described above. It is recalled that the "soft settling tool" basically measures the resistance of a blunt end shaft to a predetermined distance from the bottom of the standard shaped container 151503.doc -14· 201215669 depth or distance of slurry penetration resistance (in grams) . A special conical standard tube is used to exacerbate the "hard settling" tendency of the slurry thereby distinguishing between "good" suspension carriers and poor carriers. The tube contains a standard level: 1 5% abrasive (SiC). The selected abrasive level is partially random but indicates a good visual observation of the level of the solids settling process and is convenient for tool measurement. The 15% by weight abrasive content is based on this standard. Therefore, the tool measures the "pee penetration resistance" in a repeatable and accurate manner. The daily penetration depth of the par is verified and the tool is calibrated. For slurries formed in acceptable suspension vehicles, it is expected that under controlled conditions, the "soft sedimentation reading" (i.e., SSR) of penetration resistance will be low, <25 g, over long periods of storage. For a slurry formed in an excellent suspension carrier, a is expected to have a very low "soft sedimentation reading" (ie SSR) for penetration resistance under long-term storage under documented test conditions, 〇 g. For slurries formed in poor suspension carriers (eg, eg PEG 2 〇〇, 3 〇〇 or 4 〇〇), at fairly short "storage" times (ie, hours to 丨 to 2 days) Within the range, the SSR readings are usually in the range of 35 to 5 〇g or higher. In other words, for a special slurry, the lower the SSR over time, the more stable, uniform, consistent, and better the slurry.
