Abstract

Abstract A liquid heat- and light-sensitive resinous composition which contains as main components (A) a photopolymerizable compound prepared by reacting a novolak type epoxy compound with successively, an unsaturated monocarboxylic acid represented by at least one of formula (I) and (II) and a saturated or unsaturated polybasic acid anhydride, (B) a photopolymerizable compound having at least one ethylenic unsaturated double bond, (C) an epoxy compound having at least one epoxy group, (D) a photopolymerization initiator, (E) a thermosetting catalysts capable of making an epoxy group undergo a thermal reaction, and (F) an organic solvent; <IMAGE> (I) <IMAGE> (II) wherein R represents -H or -CH3; R1, R2 and R3 each represents an unsubstituted or substituted alkylene group, an unsubstituted or substituted arylene group, or an unsubstituted or substituted aralkylene group; and X represents -COO-, -OCO- or -O-. The composition exhibits photo- and thermocurability, developability with an alkaline aqueous solution and ability to form a permanent protective mask for printed circuit boards.
