It was applied so as to have the numerical value described in 1 and passed through a drying zone at 80 ° C. for 40 seconds to form a negative photosensitive layer.
- a polyethylene film (OSM-N manufactured by Tredegar Co., Ltd.) was pressure-bonded onto this as a protective film to prepare a photosensitive transfer film, which was wound into a roll form.
- a photosensitive transfer film composed of a temporary support and a photosensitive layer was prepared so as to have the configuration shown in Table 4. It was produced by the same method as the transfer film used in Example 1 except that the intermediate layer was not formed.
- a copper layer having a thickness of 200 nm was provided on a PET substrate having a thickness of 0.1 mm by a vapor deposition method, and a PET substrate with a copper layer was prepared. After peeling off the protective film of the produced transfer film, the copper layer is attached so that the copper layer and the photosensitive layer come into contact with each other under laminating conditions of a roll temperature of 100 ° C., a linear pressure of 1.0 MPa, and a linear velocity of 4.0 m / min. It was laminated on a PET substrate. Next, a photomask having a predetermined line ( ⁇ m) / space ( ⁇ m) pattern was used, and the temporary support was peeled off and then brought into contact with the mask for exposure.
- a high-pressure mercury lamp having an i-line (365 nm) as the exposure main wavelength was used.
- the exposure amount was arbitrarily set so that the top shape of each pattern matched the mask opening.
- shower development was carried out with a 1% sodium carbonate aqueous solution having a liquid temperature of 25 ° C., washing with water was carried out, and a predetermined pattern was formed on copper.
- the resolution was evaluated based on the following evaluation criteria. Table 4 shows the measurement results.
- "resolving without residue between patterns” means that resolution can be performed without residue in the recessed region (position corresponding to the unexposed portion) of the pattern.
- C Resolvability is B evaluation
- mask non-adhesiveness and temporary support peeling property are evaluations of either A or B.
- D Resolvability is rated C, or mask non-adhesiveness is rated C.
- the provisional support evaluation may be any evaluation.

- type of photosensitive layer corresponds to the number of the photosensitive layer shown in Table 2 as described above.
- whether or not the temporary support peeling step is carried out indicates whether or not the temporary support peeling step is carried out.
- “A” represents the case where the temporary support peeling step is performed in the method for manufacturing the laminated body, and “B” represents the case where the temporary support peeling step is not carried out in the method for manufacturing the laminated body.
- the surface free energy in the "Type and physical properties of temporary support” column indicates the surface free energy on the surface of the temporary support on the photosensitive layer side.
- Comparative Examples 1 to 7 the desired effect was not obtained.
- Comparative Examples 1 and 3 when the photosensitive layer and the mask were directly adhered to each other for exposure without forming the intermediate layer, the non-adhesiveness of the mask was inferior.
- Comparative Examples 3 and 4 when the exposure is performed through the temporary support without forming the intermediate layer and without performing the temporary support peeling step, the result is that the resolution is inferior. became.
- Comparative Example 5 when the intermediate layer was formed but the exposure was performed through the temporary support without performing the temporary support peeling step, the resolution was inferior.
- the resolution was more excellent when the thickness of the photosensitive layer was 2.0 to 20 ⁇ m (preferably 2.0 to 10 ⁇ m). Further, from the results of Examples 1, 7, 8, 10, 11, 21 to 23, the upper limit of the content of the compound X in the intermediate layer is less than 30% by mass (preferably) with respect to the total mass of the intermediate layer. It was confirmed that the resolution was more excellent in the case of (15% by mass or less). Further, it was confirmed that when the upper limit of the content of the compound X in the intermediate layer is 0.5% by mass or more with respect to the total mass of the intermediate layer, the temporary support peeling property is more excellent.
- the intermediate layer contains polyvinyl alcohol and polyvinylpyrrolid, and the compounding ratio (mass ratio) of polyvinyl alcohol and polyvinylpyrrolidone is 5/95 to 95/5. In this case, it was confirmed that the non-adhesiveness of the mask and the peelability of the temporary support were better. From the comparison between Examples 1 and 43 and 44, when the surface free energy of the surface of the temporary support on the intermediate layer side is 25.0 to 50.0 mJ / m 2 , the temporary support peelability is more excellent. It was confirmed that.
- the resolution is more excellent when the material of the photosensitive layer contains at least one selected from the group consisting of 2,4,5-triarylimidazole dimer and its derivative. It was confirmed that. Further, from the results of Example 47, it was confirmed that the resolution is more excellent when the content of the styrene-based structural unit in the polymer is 30% by mass or more with respect to the total mass of the polymer. ..
- Example 49 Manufacturing method of printed wiring board
