Patent 7785765 was granted and assigned to Asahi Kasei on August, 2010 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
The present invention relates to a photosensitive resin composition comprising at least a thermoplastic elastomer (a), a photopolymerizable unsaturated monomer (b), and a photopolymerization initiator (c), characterized in that the thermoplastic elastomer (a) comprises at least vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon units, butadiene units, and alkylene units and contains alkylene units not less than 5 wt % and not more than 80 wt % with respect to the total amount of butadiene units and alkylene units. The present invention provides a photosensitive resin composition that simultaneously achieves excellent fine line reproducibility, ester solvent resistance, and prevention of cracks occurring on plate surface.
