GLASS POLISHING SYSTEMS
Benefits
Rohm and Haas™ (formerly Rodel®) high quality pads and Eminess's slurries provide consistent
yield improvements in glass polishing processes. We offer a variety of products
that perform to meet industry specifications such as sleek, scratch/dig,
surface finish and elimination of sub-surface work damage.
Pads
MH SERIES - A porous polyurethane material available in a variety of hardnesses
with and without ceria abrasives. MH is excellent for fixed abrasive lapping providing high
removal rates and good flatness.
SUBA® SERIES - Porous, polyurethane-impregnated felts available in a variety of hardnesses
and compressibility ranges specifically designed to meet the challenging removal rates,
flatness and waviness requirements for stock polishing.
GS SERIES - A thick, moderately soft, polyurethane-impregnated felt. GS is a durable pad
ideal for acrylic polishing.
POLITEX® - Rohm and Haas (formerly Rodel®) signature technology, this soft, poromeric pad was designed for final
polishing a variety of substrates. Politex pads are available with a longer nap height to provide superior
surface roughness.
Slurries
ULTRA-SOL™ 1000 - A rare earth oxide dispersion used extensively in percision polishing of glass,
quartz, fused silica, and other silica-based optical materials. Can be produced with a pH between 7 and 8.
ULTRA-SOL™ 1000HP - Made from high-purity ceria and used for sub-angstrom optical finishes on
silica-based materials. Can be produced with a pH between 7 and 8.
ULTRA-SOL™ 1040 - Similar to Ultra-Sol 1000 but more concentrated. Provides high polish and low
Rms on most silica-based material. May be diluted in concentrations of 10:1 or 20:1.
