Abstract: The present invention provides a production method for a photo-sensitive resin, characterized in reacting a difunctional epoxy resin (B) having two epoxy groups in a molecule with carboxyl groups contained in a resin (A) having two or more (meth)acryloyl groups and at least one carboxyl group in a molecule. Since the photo-sensitive resin prepared by extending the resin (A) to a high molecular weight linearly via the difunctional epoxy resin (B) is obtained, a resist layer having an excellent tack-free property can be formed. Further, a resist layer irradiated with rays through a patterning film can be developed rapidly and correctly in an alkaline aqueous solution. Accordingly, it has been possible to provide the high-performance liquid photo-sensitive resin compositions useful for a solder resist used for producing printed circuit boards and for an electroless plating resist or useful for producing black matrices and color filters for liquid crystal displays.
