Abstract

Abstract This invention relates to a photosensitive composition comprising an ester or an amide of an o-naphthoquinone diazide sulfonic or carboxylic acid and, based on the amount of this compound, about 1 to 50 per cent by weight of an organic dye capable of salt formation and about 5 to 75 per cent by weight of a photosensitive halogen-containing compound which releases acid upon exposure to light and having one of the general formulae I or II ##STR1## in which R a is an aryl group or a heterocyclic group which may be substituted, R b is a trihaloalkyl group or a trihaloalkenyl group having from 1 to 3 carbon atoms, and n is 1, 2 or 3.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 123 words
A photosensitive composition comprising an ester or an amide of an o-naphthoquinone diazide sulfonic or carboxylic acid and, based on the amount of this compound, about 1 to 50 percent by weight of an organic dye capable of salt formation and selected from the group consisting of triphenylmethane, azine or anthraquinone dyes, and about 5 to 75 percent by weight of a photosensitive halogen-containing compound which releases acid upon exposure to light and having one of the general formulae I or II ##STR5## in which R a is an aryl group or a heterocyclic group which may be substituted, R b is a trihaloalkyl group or a trihaloalkenyl group having from 1 to 3 carbon atoms and n is 1, 2 or 3.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 123 words
A photosensitive composition comprising an ester or an amide of an o-naphthoquinone diazide sulfonic or carboxylic acid and, based on the amount of this compound, about 1 to 50 percent by weight of an organic dye capable of salt formation and selected from the group consisting of triphenylmethane, azine or anthraquinone dyes, and about 5 to 75 percent by weight of a photosensitive halogen-containing compound which releases acid upon exposure to light and having one of the general formulae I or II ##STR5## in which R a is an aryl group or a heterocyclic group which may be substituted, R b is a trihaloalkyl group or a trihaloalkenyl group having from 1 to 3 carbon atoms and n is 1, 2 or 3.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 39 words
A photosensitive composition in accordance with claim 1 which comprises 10 to 40 percent by weight of the halogen-containing compound and 3 to 30 percent by weight of a dye, based on the weight of the naphthoquinone diazide compound.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 17 words
A photosensitive composition in accordance with claim 1 in which the dye is red, blue or green.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 39 words
A photosensitive composition in accordance with claim 1 in which in the general formulae I and II R a is an N,N-dialkylamino-phenyl group or a dialkoxy-phenyl group, R b is a trichloromethyl or tribromomethyl group, and n is 1.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 22 words
A photosensitive composition in accordance with claim 1 which further comprises a resin which is soluble or swellable in aqueous alkaline solutions.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 15 words
A photosensitive composition in accordance with claim 5 in which the resin is a novolak.
