Abstract:
An aqueous developable light sensitive composition comprising an organic solution of at least one polymer having polar group substitution, a photoinitiator and an unsaturated cross linking or polymerizable monomer. The composition is developable with an aqueous solution of a weak organic acid following exposure to activating radiation and baking. A cured photoimaged mask from said composition has properties suitable for use of the composition as a photoimagable solder mask for printed circuit boards and for serving as a permanent dielectric mask in the manufacture of full additive printed circuit boards. Alternatively, the photoimaged mask can be utilized as a temporary mask for many applications due to its unexpected resistance to harsh chemical solutions including both strong acid and strong alkali solutions, and due to its adhesion to copper and other metals as well as to many nonconductive substrate materials.
