Abstract

Abstract A crosslinking-curable resin composition suitable for use in dry film resists, consisting essentially of (a) 40 to 70 parts by weight of a thermoplastic polymer binder obtained by copolymerizing four specific polymerizable substances in specific proportions; (b) 20 to 50 parts by weight of a crosslinkable monomer having one or more ethylenically unsaturated groups in the molecule and containing 51 to 100% by weight of a compound of the general formula ##STR1## where R 2 is an alkylene group of 3 to 6 carbon atoms, R 3 and R 4 are hydrogen or methyl, and n is a positive whole number of 5 to 9; and (c) 0 to 10 parts by weight of a photopolymerization initiator; the combined amount of components (a) to (c) being 100 parts by weight.
