Positive type photoresist composition comprising a novolak resin made with a silica-magnesia solid catalyst

摘要

A novel positive type photoresist composition is provided, comprising an alkali-soluble novolak resin obtained by the condensation of substituted or unsubstituted phenols and aldehydes in the presence of a silica-magnesia solid catalyst and a light-sensitive material containing 1,2-naphthoquinone-diazido-5-(and/or -4-) sulfonate as main component.
