Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 111 words
A photoresist stripper composition comprising: (a) from about 20 to about 70% by weight of an organic polar solvent having a dipole moment of more than 3.5; (b) from about 70 to about 20% by weight of an amine compound selected from the group consisting of an alkanolamine compound within the formula (I): ##STR3## wherein n and m are each independently an integer ranging from 0-5, inclusive; X is hydrogen, alkyl, or alkoxy group; Y is either --O-- or --NH--; and Z is hydrogen, --OH, or --NH 2 ; (c) from about 0.1 to about 10% by weight of (2-benzothiozolylthio)succinic acid; all percents based on the weight of the stripper composition.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 111 words
A photoresist stripper composition comprising: (a) from about 20 to about 70% by weight of an organic polar solvent having a dipole moment of more than 3.5; (b) from about 70 to about 20% by weight of an amine compound selected from the group consisting of an alkanolamine compound within the formula (I): ##STR3## wherein n and m are each independently an integer ranging from 0-5, inclusive; X is hydrogen, alkyl, or alkoxy group; Y is either --O-- or --NH--; and Z is hydrogen, --OH, or --NH 2 ; (c) from about 0.1 to about 10% by weight of (2-benzothiozolylthio)succinic acid; all percents based on the weight of the stripper composition.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 14 words
The stripper composition of claim 1 wherein said solvent (a) is a cyclic amide.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 21 words
The stripper composition of claim 2 wherein said cyclic amide is selected from the group consisting of N-alkyl-2-pyrrolidone, N-hydroxyalkyl-2-pyrrolidone, and 1,3-dialkyl-2-imidazolidinone.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 23 words
The stripper composition of claim 1 wherein said alkanolamine is selected from the group consisting of monoethanolamine, 2-(2-aminoethoxy)ethanol and 2-(2-aminoethylamino)ethanol, diethanolamine, and triethanolamine.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 22 words
The stripper composition of claim 2 wherein said alkanolamine is selected from the group consisting of monoethanolamine, 2-(2-aminoethoxy) ethanol, diethanolamine, and triethanolamine.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 22 words
The stripper composition of claim 3 wherein said alkanolamine is selected from the group consisting of monoethanolamine, 2-(2-aminoethoxy) ethanol, diethanolamine and triethanolamine.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 11 words
The stripper composition of claim 3 wherein said N-alkyl-2-pyrrolidone is N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone.
