Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 121 words
A radiation-sensitive composition capable of producing a positive image upon exposure to actinic radiation and subsequent treatment with a basic solution which consists essentially of, by weight based on weight of the total composition, (a) 10 to 50 weight percent of an o-naphthoquinone diazide compound, (b) 45 to 79 weight percent of an alkali soluble film-forming phenolic resin and (c) 1 to 15 weight percent of an organic acid cyclic anhydride represented by the following formulae (II) or (III) ##STR3## wherein R 1 and R 2 each represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, an unsubstituted or substituted alkyl group, or an unsubstituted or substituted aryl group, and R 1 and R 2 may combine together to form a cyclic ring.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 121 words
A radiation-sensitive composition capable of producing a positive image upon exposure to actinic radiation and subsequent treatment with a basic solution which consists essentially of, by weight based on weight of the total composition, (a) 10 to 50 weight percent of an o-naphthoquinone diazide compound, (b) 45 to 79 weight percent of an alkali soluble film-forming phenolic resin and (c) 1 to 15 weight percent of an organic acid cyclic anhydride represented by the following formulae (II) or (III) ##STR3## wherein R 1 and R 2 each represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, an unsubstituted or substituted alkyl group, or an unsubstituted or substituted aryl group, and R 1 and R 2 may combine together to form a cyclic ring.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 23 words
The composition of claim 1, wherein said o-naphthoquinone diazide compound is an ester of a halide of naphthoquinone(1,2)-diazide-(2)-sulfonic acid and a phenolic compound.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 32 words
The composition of claim 1, wherein said o-naphthoquinone diazide compound is an ester of a halide of naphthoquinone-(1,2)-diazide-(2)-sulfonic acid and a pyrogallol-acetone condensation resin, a phenolformaldehyde novolac resin or a poly(hydroxy styrene).
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 32 words
The composition of claim 1, wherein said phenolic resin is a phenol/formaldehyde novolac resin, a cresol/formaldehyde novaolac resin, a p-tert-butyl phenol/formaldehyde novolac resin, a phenolmodified xylene/formaldehyde resin, a poly(hydroxystyrene) or a poly(bromohydroxystyrene).
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 45 words
The composition of claim 1, wherein said organic acid cyclic anhydride is phthalic acid anhydride, tetrachlorophthalic acid anhydride, tetrahydrophthalic acid anhydride, hexahydrophthalic acid anhydride, 3,6-endoxy-Δ 4 -tetrahydrophthalic acid anhydride, maleic acid anhydride, α-chloromaleic acid anhydride, α-phenylmaleic acid anhydride, succinic acid anhydride or pyromellitic acid anhydride.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 27 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said cyclic ring is a cycloalkyl group, a halo (cycloalkyl) group, a cycloalkylene group, an aryl group, or a heterocyclic group.
