This invention offers a method to improve etching resistance of etching mask upon etching comprising steps of forming a pattern on a substrate by using photoresist, applying a composition for forming an etching protection layer containing water-soluble or water-dispersible resin, crosslinking agent and water and/or water-soluble organic solvent as a solvent, forming etching protection layer which is insoluble in a developer containing water in the interface between a composition for forming an etching protection layer and a photoresist by heating, removing by a developer unnecessary area excluding etching protection layer made of a composition for forming an etching protection layer, and treating a substrate by etching using photoresist pattern as a mask. |
