A method of chemical mechanical polishing a substrate is provided, including: providing a substrate; providing a chemical mechanical polishing pad, comprising: a polishing layer having a composition and a polishing surface, wherein the composition of polishing layer is selected to exhibit an initial hydrolytic stability; coupled with a sustained hydrolytic instability; a rigid layer having a top surface and a bottom surface; a hot melt adhesive interposed between the base surface of the polishing layer and the top surface of the rigid layer; wherein the hot melt adhesive bonds the polishing layer to the rigid layer; a pressure sensitive platen adhesive layer having a stack side and a platen side; wherein the stack side of the pressure sensitive platen adhesive layer is adjacent to the bottom surface of the rigid layer; and, creating dynamic contact between the polishing surface and substrate to polish a surface of the substrate. |
