Abstract

The polishing composition is suitable for chemical mechanical polishing magnetic, optical, semiconductor or silicon substrates. The polishing composition includes abrasive particles in a liquid media. The abrasive particles have a particle core, the particle core having a hardness and a polymeric shell physisorbed to and encapsulating the particle core. The polymeric shell has a solid structure and a hardness lower than the hardness of the particle core. The abrasive particles have an average particle size of less than or equal to about 2 micrometers dispersed in the liquid media.
