Further, the water-soluble polymer contributes to the improvement of the processing speed by adsorbing to the surface of the object to be polished to make the polished surface hydrophilic and increasing the contact frequency between the abrasive grains and the polished surface. On the other hand, the water-soluble polymer also has a function of protecting the surface of the object to be polished, thereby suppressing excessive polishing.

After 6 hours, the reaction was stopped by water cooling.
- polymer A3 The molecular weight of the obtained water-soluble block copolymer (referred to as "polymer A3") was Mn20300 and Mw24400 as measured by GPC, and the PDI was 1.2.
- Comparative Synthesis Example 2C The same operation as in Comparative Synthesis Example 1C was carried out except that the charged raw materials were changed as shown in Table 5, to obtain a polymer H3.
- Table 6 shows the results of determining the molecular weight of the polymer H3 by GPC measurement.
- Example 1C As a dispersant, an aqueous polymer solution containing the polymer A3 at a solid content concentration of 20% was prepared. To a 50 mL glass pressure resistant bottle, add 4.0 g of ceria nanoparticles (primary particle size 20 nm) and 2 g of a dispersant, mix well, and adjust the pH to 7 using a 0.5 mol / L HCl solution or a 25 mass% NH 3 aqueous solution. Adjusted to. Then, 20 g of zirconia beads having a diameter of 1 mm was added, and the mixture was stirred with a paint shaker for 30 minutes. After removing the beads by filtration, the beads were allowed to stand overnight to obtain a slurry-like abrasive composition. The following measurements and evaluations were carried out using the obtained abrasive composition. The results of measurement and evaluation are shown in Table 6.
- ⁇ Slurry appearance> The appearance of the slurry was determined by visually confirming the appearance of the prepared abrasive composition.
- a slurry-like abrasive composition was prepared as a reference sample by performing the same operation as in Example 1C except that the dispersant was not added. This reference sample was left to stand for 24 hours to measure the sedimentation thickness D, and the sedimentation degree [%] of the particles of each abrasive composition was calculated with the measured sedimentation thickness D as 100%.
- the judgment criteria are as follows. The particles that had been allowed to stand overnight and settled were redispersed by shaking the container by hand, and the particle settling within 1 hour after the redispersion was confirmed.
- Particle sedimentation within 1 hour is 5% or less
- Particle sedimentation within 1 hour is greater than 5% and 15% or less
- Particle sedimentation within 1 hour is greater than 15% and 30% or less
- Within 1 hour Particle sedimentation is greater than 30%
- Examples 2C to 6C, Comparative Examples 1C to 3C Dispersants were prepared in the same manner as in Example 1C except that the polymers used were changed as shown in Table 6, and slurry-like abrasive compositions were prepared in the same manner as in Example 1C. .. The obtained abrasive composition was measured for slurry viscosity and evaluated for slurry appearance in the same manner as in Example 1C. The results are shown in Table 6.
- the numerical values of the monomer 1 and the monomer 2 in the "polymer block A” column and the “polymer block B” column are the single amount of each polymer calculated from the charged amount at the time of polymerization. Represents body composition (mass ratio).
- the "A / B mass ratio” represents the ratio (mass ratio) of the polymer block A and the polymer block B in each polymer calculated from the monomer composition of each polymer.
- the numerical values in the "each block Mn" column are theoretically calculated values of Mn of each polymer block A and polymer block B, and Mn, Mw and PDI in the "polymer / molecular weight physical properties” column are measured values by GPC measurement. Is.
