Abstract: The present application provides a method for monitoring bubble breakup during CMP, wherein a bonded wafer is formed by bonding of respective first surfaces of first and second wafers, and the magnitude of the current required to drive rotation of the bonded wafer is monitored from the start of the polishing; according to the change of the monitored current driving the rotation of the first wafer, it is determined whether there is bubble rupture at a bonding surface; if the current is increased instantaneously before the bonding surface is exposed by the polishing, bubbles generated at the bonding surface rupture; and if the magnitude of the current is constant before the end of the polishing, no bubble is generated at the bonding surface or generated bubbles do not rupture.

Abstract: Disclosed is a halogen-free, flame retardant thermoplastic resin composition based on polypropylene and one or more thermoplastic elastomers with an organic nitrogen- and/or phosphorus-based intumescent flame retardant comprising a piperazine component. The composition is processed easily to make a wire and cable sheath exhibiting a balance of high flame retardancy, good flexibility, high wet electrical resistance and excellent heat deformation properties, and which passes the VW-I flame retardancy test, the UL1581 heat deformation test at 150° C. and the wet electrical resistance test, and also exhibits good tensile and flexibility properties. Also disclosed is a wire and cable sheath made from the composition.
