The surface plate according to the present invention includes a surface plate main body and a release layer composed of a release film or release paper formed on a face of the surface plate main body to which the polishing pad is to be adhered. The release layer has a surface peel force of 0.08 N/50 mm to 5.0 N/50 mm inclusive. The present invention can be suitably used in a polishing device employing a common polishing pad provided with an adhesive.

A polishing method using a polishing pad including a specific adsorption layer. The polishing pad has an adsorption layer including a silicone including linear polyorganosiloxane having vinyl groups only at both ends, and the like. The polishing pad is fixed to a surface plate, and a product to be polished is pressed against the polishing pad, and simultaneously slid to polish the product to be polished. In this case, the surface roughness (Ra) of the surface plate is set to 0.01 to 0.7 μm, and the adsorption layer of the polishing pad is then adsorbed and fixed to the surface plate to perform polishing work. By adjusting the surface roughness of the surface plate as described above, a surface of the product to be polished can be inhibited from being unpredictably scratched or roughened. The method for adjusting the surface roughness of the surface plate is preferably a method in which a film having a surface roughness as described above is bonded to a surface of the surface plate.

POLISHING PAD AND POLISHING METHOD WITH USE OF SAID POLISHING PAD
The present invention relates to a polishing pad which is composed of: a base material; and an adsorption layer and a polishing layer, which are formed on the base material. The adsorption layer is formed of a composition which is obtained by crosslinking at least one silicone that is selected from among a silicone composed of a linear polyorganosiloxane that has vinyl groups only at both ends, and the like. In addition, the present invention is characterized by comprising a ring-like shield member on the adsorption layer, said shield member being arranged along the outer circumference of the polishing pad. This polishing pad is used by having the adsorption layer adsorbed and affixed onto a polishing plate, while supplying a polishing slurry onto the polishing layer during the polishing work. According to the present invention, the ring-like shield member suppresses incursion of the polishing slurry to the interface between the adsorption layer and the polishing plate.
The present invention relates to a sheet-like underlay to be installed between a polishing pad and a surface plate when the polishing pad is fixed onto the surface plate. The underlay is a novel assistance member in which, in a surface that contacts the polishing pad, at least one annular groove is formed along an outer edge of the underlay, and in which further at least one discharge groove extending from an annular groove formed on the outer-most edge side in the direction of the outer edge of the underlay and having an opening at an outer edge end portion is formed. After the underlay is fixed onto the surface plate, a polishing pad may be fixed to the underlay, whereby peeling and the like of the polishing pad due to a polishing slurry can be suppressed.
The present invention pertains to a method for polishing using a polishing pad provided with a prescribed adsorption layer. The polishing pad is provided with an adsorption layer that comprises, inter alia, silicone comprising a linear polyorganosiloxane having a vinyl base solely on the two terminal ends. In the present invention, after the polishing pad is fixed to a platen and when an object to be polished is polished by being slid while pressed against the polishing pad, the surface roughness (Ra) of the platen is set to 0.01-0.7 μm, and then the adsorption layer of the polishing pad is fixed by adsorption to the platen and a polishing operation is performed. Adjusting the surface roughness of the platen in this manner makes it possible to suppress unexpected scratching and/or roughening of the surface of the object to be polished. Bonding a film having the above-described surface roughness to the surface of the platen is preferred as the method for adjusting the surface roughness of the platen.
The present invention is a holding pad including a holding layer for holding a member to be polished, in which the holding layer includes on a part of a surface thereof a template fixing portion for sticking a template for preventing lateral displacement of the member to be polished, the template fixing portion has on a surface thereof an adsorption layer for adsorbing and fixing the template the template fixing portion, and the adsorption layer is formed of a composition which is formed by crosslinking a silicone composed of a predetermined siloxane.
