Abstract

Abstract A polishing method and abrasive pads used to polish of abrade, for example, lenses. The pad is manufactured with an abrasives such as grains of the mean diameter: 0.5 - 10 µm of alumina, zirconium oxide, tin oxide, and cerium oxide, a kind of water-soluble cellulose ether seleted from the group of hydroxypropylmethyl and the like, and a kind of insolubilizing agent such as glyoxal, citric acid, and the like. The substances above are blended and coated on a sheet-like substrate. In polishing process, only water is poured between the rotating abrasives pad and goods to be polished.
