Abstract

A polishing agent for polishing a non-oxide single-crystal substrate such as a silicon carbide single-crystal substrate with a high polishing rate to obtain a smooth surface is provided. This polishing agent comprises an oxidant having redox potential of 0.5 V or more and containing a transition metal, silicon oxide particles, cerium oxide particles and a dispersion medium, in which a mass ratio of the silicon oxide particles to the cerium oxide particles is from 0.2 to 20.
