Abstract: A polymer composite comprises a base material, and a polymer membrane provided on at least a part of the base material, the polymer membrane having at least hydrophilicity, and the polymer composite is used in a state exposed to water or a water-based solvent. The polymer membrane is a resin film formed by photo-crosslinking a photosensitive resin composition consisting essentially of a water-soluble polymer, and during crosslinking of the photosensitive resin composition, some of photosensitive groups of the photosensitive resin composition are bound to amino groups fixed to the surface of the base material, whereby the resin film is fixed to the base material.

Abstract: A photosensitive resin which exhibits excellent storage stability, affinity, miscibility, or solubility with respect to a variety of compounds, and high sensitivity can be solidified even under hydrous conditions as well as exhibiting high cure-related sensitivity and high flexibility and being uniformly solidified even under highly hydrous conditions, a photosensitive resin composition containing the resin, and a novel compound. The photosensitive resin is a saponified poly(vinyl acetate)-based photosensitive resin having a structural unit represented by formula (1): (wherein R1 represents H or Me; R2 represents a linear or branched C2-C10 alkylene group; n is an integer of 1 to 3; X represents m is an integer of 0 to 6; and Y represents an aromatic ring or a single bond).

Abstract: A photosensitive resin composition includes a polymer compound having a component of Formula (I) and a sensitizer having a cationic group in the molecule: ##STR1## (wherein X denotes a cationic species, and n is 0, 1 or 2.) The photosensitive resin composition is high in sensitivity, good in storage stability, and easy to produce, and is suitable for use in a screen printing plate, formation of black matrix or phosphor pattern of a color cathode-ray tube, a CCD or LCD color filter, a printing color proof, and various etching resists.
