Abstract

Abstract Disclosed is a selective etching method of a polyimide type resin film which uses an etching mask consisting of a negative type photoresist material prepared by adding a photosensitive reagent to an unsaturated ketone polymer such as polymethylisopropenylketone as the base resin and an etching solution consisting of 20 to 40% by volume of hydrazine hydrate and the balance of a polyamine. The etching method of the present invention can provide the pattern of the polyimide type resin film having high dimensional accuracy by wet etching.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 82 words
A selective etching method of a polyimide type resin film, comprising forming a film made of negative type photoresist material using an unsaturated ketone polymer as a base resin on a polyimide type resin film, exposing a predetermined portion of said film, developing said film to obtain an etching mask having a predetermined pattern and etching said resin film by use of a mixed solution of 20 to 40 vol% of hydrazine hydrate and the balance of polyamine as the etching solution.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 82 words
A selective etching method of a polyimide type resin film, comprising forming a film made of negative type photoresist material using an unsaturated ketone polymer as a base resin on a polyimide type resin film, exposing a predetermined portion of said film, developing said film to obtain an etching mask having a predetermined pattern and etching said resin film by use of a mixed solution of 20 to 40 vol% of hydrazine hydrate and the balance of polyamine as the etching solution.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 58 words
The selective etching method of a polyimide type resin film as defined in claim 1 wherein said unsaturated ketone polymer is expressed by the following general formula ##STR3## wherein R 1 is H or an alkyl group of up to 4 carbon atoms and R 2 is an alkyl or phenyl group of up to 4 carbon atoms.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 37 words
The selective etching method of a polyimide type resin film as defined in claim 1 wherein said unsaturated ketone polymer is at least one member selected from the group consisting of polymethylisopropenylketone, polyethylisopropenylketone, polymethylvinylketone, polyvinylphenylketone and polyethylvinylketone.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 37 words
The selective etching method of a polyimide type resin film as defined in any of claims 1 through 3 wherein said photoresist material is prepared by adding a bisazide type photosensitive reagent to said unsaturated ketone polymer.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 53 words
The selective etching method of a polyimide type resin film as defined in any of claims 1 through 3 wherein said photoresist material is prepared by adding at least one member selected from the group consisting of 2,6-di(4'-azidebenzal)-4-methylcyclohexanone, 4,4'-diazidenphenylthioether, 4,4'-diazidestilben, 4,4'-diazidechalcon, 4,4'-diazidebenzalacetone and 2,6-di(4-azidebenzal)cyclohexanone as said photosensitive reagent to said unsaturated ketone polymer.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 32 words
The selective etching method of a polyimide type resin film as defined in claim 4 wherein the concentration of said photosensitive reagent in said photoresist material is from 5 to 25 wt%.
Claim 8
