Abstract

Abstract This invention describes an ionizing radiation sensitive material having high contrast, high sensitivity and comprised of a mixed half-ester or half amide of the reaction of an N-hydroxy or N-aminoalkyl amide and a hydroxy alkyl terminally unsaturated compound with an alkylvinyl ether-maleic anhydride copolymer. A typical material is made by reacting hydroxyethyl pyrrolidone and hydroxyethyl acrylate with octadecylvinyl ether-maleic anhydride copolymer.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 62 words
In a method of recording information whereby a beam of electrons is scanned across a surface of an electron beam sensitive material comprising a polymer which is the mixed half-ester reaction product of a reaction between the maleic anhydride of a copolymer of maleic anhydride and a vinyl monomer with a mixture of a terminally unsaturated alcohol compound and an N-hydroxyalkyl amide.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 62 words
In a method of recording information whereby a beam of electrons is scanned across a surface of an electron beam sensitive material comprising a polymer which is the mixed half-ester reaction product of a reaction between the maleic anhydride of a copolymer of maleic anhydride and a vinyl monomer with a mixture of a terminally unsaturated alcohol compound and an N-hydroxyalkyl amide.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 61 words
In a method of recording information whereby a beam of electrons is scanned across a surface of an electron beam sensitive material comprising a polymer which is the mixed half-ester reaction product of a reaction between the maleic anhydride of a copolymer of maleic anhydride and a vinyl monomer with a mixture of terminally unsaturated alcohol compound and an N-aminoalkyl amide.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 61 words
In a method of recording information whereby a beam of electrons is scanned across a surface of an electron beam sensitive material comprising a polymer which is the mixed half-ester reaction product of a reaction between the maleic anhydride of a copolymer of maleic anhydride and a vinyl monomer with a mixture of terminally unsaturated alcohol compound and an N-aminoalkyl amide.
