Addition of non-nitrogen containing weak acids to amine-containing alkaline strippers for photoresists produce stripper compositions able to strip highly cross-linked or hardened photoresist films without producing any substantial metal corrosion. Weak acids useful in the stripping compositions include those having a pK in aqueous solution of 2.0 or higher and an equivalent weight of less than about 140 and are employed in an amount to neutralize from about 19% to about 75% of the amine present in the stripper composition. |
