Abstract
Abstract This invention relates to a heat and solder resistant solid photopolymer composition which can be imaged and developed and a process of using same. The solder resistant photocurable composition consists essentially of a solid diallyl phthalate prepolymer, i.e. poly-(diallyl orthophthalate) and a liquid polyene and polythiol. The solid composition when applied to a printed circuit board and cured imagewise in the presence of a free radical generator permits passage of the board through a bath of molten solder to secure electrical components thereto. When the free radical generator is actinic radiation, e.g., UV light, a curing rate accelerator, e.g., benzophenone is usually added to the composition.
