Abstract: Provided is a fine-processing agent which, when fine-processing a laminated film stacked at least with a silicon dioxide film and a silicon nitride film, can selectively fine-process the silicon dioxide film. Also provided is a fine-processing method utilizing the fine-processing agent. The fine-processing agent is characterized by including: (a) 0.01-15.0 weight % hydrogen fluoride and/or 0.1-40.0 weight % ammonium fluoride, (b) water, and (c) 0.001-10.00 weight % water-soluble polymer selected from among a group consisting of acrylic acid, ammonium acrylate, acrylic acid ester, acrylamide, styrenesulfonic acid, ammonium styrenesulfonate, and styrenesulfonic acid ester.

Abstract: Disclosed is a cleaning liquid which is capable of cleaning an object to be cleaned, to the surface of which cerium oxide adheres, by dissolving and removing cerium oxide in the form of cerium ions. A cleaning method using the cleaning liquid is also disclosed. The cleaning liquid for removing cerium oxide is characterized by containing hydrogen fluoride, at least one acid selected from the group consisting of hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, sulfuric acid, acetic acid, phosphoric acid, iodic acid and hydrobromic acid, and water. The cleaning liquid is also characterized by dissolving and removing cerium oxide in the form of cerium ions.

Abstract: A stainless steel with a passive state fluorinated film formed thereon, which is easy to construct and does not produce particles even when it is welded, and a device using the same. The stainless steel does not cause leakage even when said film is formed on a sealing surface of a joint and a valve seat surface. The stainless steel is characterized in that at least a part of the surface coated with a passive state fluorinated film not thicker than 190Å consisting of a metal fluoride as a main component.
