Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A positive-type photosensitive resin composition includes (A) a phenol resin modified by a compound having an unsaturated hydrocarbon group having 4 to 100 carbon atoms; (B) a compound that produces an acid by light; (C) a thermal crosslinking agent; and (D) a solvent. The positive-type photosensitive resin composition according to the present invention can be developed by an alkaline aqueous solution, and an effect thereof is that a resist pattern having sufficiently high sensitivity and resolution, excellent adhesion, and good thermal shock resistance can be formed.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A positive-type photosensitive resin composition comprising: a phenol resin modified by a drying oil, wherein the drying oil has an iodine number of not less than 130, and the drying oil includes an ester of at least one saturated fatty acid including 8 to 30 carbon atoms with glycerol; a photo acid generator; a thermal crosslinking agent; and a solvent, wherein the phenol resin modified by the drying oil obtained by (i) a polycondensation reaction of (a) a reaction product of at least phenol or a derivative thereof and the drying oil with (b) aldehydes, or (ii) reacting (a) a phenol resin, which is produced by a polycondensation reaction of phenol or a derivative thereof with aldehydes, with (b) the drying oil. 2. The positive-type photosensitive resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the photo acid generator is an o-quinone diazide compound. 3. The positive-type photosensitive resin composition according to claim 1 , containing 3 to 100 parts by mass of the photo acid generator based on 100 parts by mass of the phenol resin modified by the drying oil. 4. The positive-type photosensitive resin composition according to claim 1 , further comprising an elastomer. 5. The positive-type photosensitive resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the phenol resin modified by the drying oil is obtained by (i) a polycondensation reaction of (a) a reaction product of at least phenol or a derivative thereof and the drying oil with (b) aldehydes. 6. The positive-type photosensitive resin composition according to claim 5 , wherein the ester has 2-30 unsaturated bonds. 7. The positive-type photosensitive resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein in (i), the phenol resin modified by the drying oil is by combining (a) a compound obtained by reacting phenol or a derivative thereof and the drying oil with a compound other than phenol, and then polycondensing with (b) aldehydes. 8. The positive-type photosensitive resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the phenol resin modified by the drying oil is obtained by (ii) reacting (a) a phenol resin, which is produced by a polycondensation reaction of phenol or a derivative thereof with aldehydes, with (b) the drying oil. 9. The positive-type photosensitive resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the phenol resin modified by the drying oil is obtained by (ii) reacting (a) a phenol resin, which is produced by a polycondensation reaction of phenol or a derivative thereof with aldehydes, with (b) the drying oil, and the phenol resin modified by the drying oil is acid-modified by reacting the phenol resin modified by the drying oil with a polybasic acid anhydride. 10. The positive-type photosensitive resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the thermal crosslinking agent includes at least one compound selected from the group consisting of a compound having a phenolic hydroxyl group, a compound having a hydroxyl methylamino group, and a compound having an epoxy group. 11. A positive-type photosensitive resin composition comprising: a modified phenol resin; a photo acid generator; a thermal crosslinking agent; and a solvent, wherein the modified phenol resin is obtained by (i) a polycondensation reaction of (a) a reaction product of at least phenol or a derivative thereof and an ester with (b) aldehydes, or (ii) reacting (a) a phenol resin, which is produced by a polycondensation reaction of phenol or a derivative thereof with aldehydes, with (b) an ester, wherein the ester is an ester of at least one unsaturated fatty acid including 8 to 30 carbon atoms with a monohydric, dihydric, or trihydric alcohol including 1 to 10 carbon atoms.
