Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim 125 words
A photosensitive composition containing as active ingredient a polymer which has, in the molecular structure, a structural unit represented by the general formula (I): ##STR4## wherein R 1 represents hydrogen, an alkyl group or carboxyl; R 2 represents hydrogen, halogen or an alkyl group; R 3 represents hydrogen, an alkyl group, an aryl group or an aralkyl group; Y and Z individually represent an arylene group; X represents a divalent organic group connecting the adjacent nitrogen atom and the aromatic ring carbon atom of Y; and n represents 0 or 1, the structural unit of said polymer being present in said polymer in an amount not less than 10 mole percent and said polymer having a molecular weight of from about 2,000 to about 1,000,000.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 125 words
A photosensitive composition containing as active ingredient a polymer which has, in the molecular structure, a structural unit represented by the general formula (I): ##STR4## wherein R 1 represents hydrogen, an alkyl group or carboxyl; R 2 represents hydrogen, halogen or an alkyl group; R 3 represents hydrogen, an alkyl group, an aryl group or an aralkyl group; Y and Z individually represent an arylene group; X represents a divalent organic group connecting the adjacent nitrogen atom and the aromatic ring carbon atom of Y; and n represents 0 or 1, the structural unit of said polymer being present in said polymer in an amount not less than 10 mole percent and said polymer having a molecular weight of from about 2,000 to about 1,000,000.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 23 words
A photosensitive composition according to claim 1 wherein the aryl group and the aralkyl group in R 3 are respectively phenyl and benzyl.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 25 words
A photosensitive composition according to claim 1 wherein the arylene group for Y and Z is selected from a phenylene group and a naphthylene group.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 19 words
A photosensitive composition according to claim 3 wherein the phenylene group is phenylene while the naphthylene group is naphthylene.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 16 words
A photosensitive composition according to claim 1 wherein the alkyl group for R 1 is methyl.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 30 words
A photosensitive composition according to claim 1 wherein the halogen for R 2 is chlorine or bromine while the alkyl for R 2 and R 3 is methyl or ethyl.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 17 words
A photosensitive composition according to claim 1 wherein the divalent group for X is an alkylene group.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 17 words
A photosensitive composition according to claim 7 wherein the alkylene group for X is methylene or ethylene.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 17 words
A photosensitive composition according to claim 1 wherein the divalent group for X is selected from ##STR5##
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 31 words
A photosensitive composition according to claim 3 wherein the phenylene group for Y is cyano, methyl and/or methoxy substituted phenylene and Z is phenylene or naphthylene substituted with nitro and/or chlorine.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 13 words
A photosensitive composition according to claim 1 wherein the composition further contains 1-azidopyrene.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 19 words
