ULTRAVIOLET CURABLE RESIN COMPOSITION AND PHOTO SOLDER RESIST INK USING THE SAME

摘要

An ultraviolet curable resin composition includes (A) an ultraviolet curable resin, (B) an epoxy compound having at least two epoxy groups in one molecule, (C) a photopolymerization initiator and (D) a diluent. The ultraviolet curable resin (A) is obtained by the steps of polymerizing an ethylenically unsaturated monomer component containing (a) an ethylenically unsaturated monomer having epoxy group and (b) a compound having at least two ethylenically unsaturated groups in one molecule to prepare a copolymer, reacting the copolymer with (c) an ethylenically unsaturated monomer having carboxyl group to prepare a chemical intermediate, and reacting the chemical intermediate with (d) one of saturated and unsaturated polybasic acid anhydrides. This resin composition will be preferably used to prepare a photo solder resist ink developable with diluted alkaline aqueous solution.
