Chemical amplification type positive photosensitive resin composition, a photosensitive dry film, a method for producing a photosensitive dry film, a method for producing a patterned resist film, a method of manufacturing a template with a substrate, and a method of manufacturing a plated shaped product, and a Mercapto compound

摘要

A chemically amplified positive-type photosensitive resin composition capable of suppressing the occurrence of “footing” in which the width of the bottom (the side proximal to the surface of a support) becomes narrower than the top (the side proximal to the surface of a resist layer) in the nonresist portion when a resist pattern serving as a template for a plated article is formed on a metal surface of a substrate having a metal surface using the composition. A mercapto compound having the formula (C) shown below is added to the composition and includes an acid generator which generates acid upon exposure to an irradiated active ray or radiation and a resin the solubility of which in alkali increases under the action of acid:; wherein n1, n2, R^c1, and R^c are defined in claim 1.
