Disclosed herein is a post-ashing treating liquid composition comprising a salt of hydrofluoric acid with a base free from metal ions, a water-soluble organic solvent, water, and an acetylene alcohol/alkylene oxide adduct. Disclosed also herein is a process for treatment with said treating liquid composition. For removal of resist residues such as modified photoresist films and metal depositions, the treating liquid composition and the treating process can be advantageously applied to the substrates having been dry-etched, followed by ashing under severe conditions, without corrosion on metal layers and damage to an organic SOG layer formed thereon. |
