  • Patent number: 8758986
    Abstract: A method produces an undercoat-covered smoothed printed wiring board, requiring no step of polishing the surface of the printed wiring board. A method for producing a solder-resist-covered printed wiring board causes no depression in an area between circuit traces. A printed wiring board so produced is also described. The method for producing a printed wiring board includes applying a photo- and heat-curable resin composition onto at least a part of a surface of a printed wiring substrate; placing an optically transparent smoothing member on the resin layer; moving a hard roller on the smoothing member to thin the applied resin layer to a thickness of interest; placing a negative-image mask on the smoothing member; exposing the applied resin layer to light via the negative-image mask; removing the optically transparent smoothing member; removing a light-unexposed portion of the applied resin layer through development; and completely heat-curing the cured light-exposed portion.
