Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 141 words
A process for preparing a stencil which comprises: placing a photomask on a photo-curable composite material which comprises a flat, flexible and photo-transmitting thin film (A); a flat and flexible film (B); a liquid photo-curable resin and a flat screen material, said films (A) and (B) being air-tightly bonded to each other at their peripheral portion thereof to form a flat inner space therebetween, said liquid photo-curable resin being disposed in said inner space to form a layer, and said screen material also being disposed in the inner space substantially in parallel with the inner walls of the films (A) and (B); curing the liquid photo-curable resin in the photo-curable composite material by irradiation with actinic light through said photomask; and removing the uncured resin to develop an image after peeling off at least one film from the irradiated composite material.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 141 words
A process for preparing a stencil which comprises: placing a photomask on a photo-curable composite material which comprises a flat, flexible and photo-transmitting thin film (A); a flat and flexible film (B); a liquid photo-curable resin and a flat screen material, said films (A) and (B) being air-tightly bonded to each other at their peripheral portion thereof to form a flat inner space therebetween, said liquid photo-curable resin being disposed in said inner space to form a layer, and said screen material also being disposed in the inner space substantially in parallel with the inner walls of the films (A) and (B); curing the liquid photo-curable resin in the photo-curable composite material by irradiation with actinic light through said photomask; and removing the uncured resin to develop an image after peeling off at least one film from the irradiated composite material.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 14 words
A process according to claim 1, wherein said screen material is a glass mat.
