Abstract

Solvent-soluble copolymers having a number average molecular weight of about 1,000 to about 1,000,000 and comprising recurring units of the following formulae (I) and (II) (case A) or recurring unit of the following formulae (I), (II) and (III) (case B) or solvent-soluble graft copolymers having a number average molecular weight of about 1,500 to about 2,000,000 and comprising recurring units of the following formulae (I), (II) and/or (II'), and (IV) (case C) or recurring units of the following formulae (I), (II) and/or (II'), (III) and (IV) (case D), said recurring units being ##STR1## wherein each of R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 represents independently hydrogen, a straight or branched chain alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms or a halogen; R.sub.4 represents hydrogen or a straight or branched chain alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms; R.sub.5 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, a phenyl group or a benzyl group; R.sub.6 represents hydrogen or a methyl group; R.sub.7 represents a straight or branched chain alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, an aryl group, an aralkyl group or an aminoalkyl group; and n is an integer of 1 to 50. A resist having an exce…
