Abstract

A method for making an acrylic resin photoresist characterized by polymerization of an acrylic monomer in a solvent that dissolves all monomers and resultant polymers. The use of the solvent permits formation of acrylic resins suitable for use in the preparation of photoresists without recovery from its reaction mixture. Photoresists prepared from such polymers have improved transparency, especially at exposures of 193 mn or less.
