Abstract
The local viscoelastic properties of soft polishing pads with different usage durations are measured by a micro-scale mechanical analysis testing platform. The testing reveals stimulus-adaptive local viscoelasticity of soft pads under the activation of asperity contact. This phenomenon suggests asperity-dependent local modulus. Such an increase of local modulus induced by higher asperity provides a further enhancement effect to the planarization of surface asperity. Furthermore, the measurement outcomes suggest that the reaction of local micro-scale viscoelastic properties of the soft pad surface to the workpiece asperity will decay with usage time. The current study provides a detailed understanding of the aging effects for the soft pad and explains the performance decay during soft pad polishing from a local micro-scale interfacial perspective.
