Abstract: To provide a photocurable composition from which a cured product excellent in mold release characteristics and mechanical strength can be obtained, and a method for producing a molded product excellent in durability, with a fine pattern having a reverse pattern of a mold precisely transferred on its surface. A photocurable composition 20 comprising from 15 to 60 mass % of a compound (A) which is an aromatic compound having at least two rings or an alicyclic compound having at least two rings and which has two (meth)acryloyloxy groups, from 5 to 40 mass % of a compound (B) having a fluorine atom and having at least one carbon-carbon unsaturated double bond (excluding the compound (A)), from 10 to 55 mass % of a compound (C) having one (meth)acryloyloxy group (excluding the compound (B)) and from 1 to 12 mass % of a photopolymerization initiator (D) (provided that (A)+(B)+(C)+(D)=100 mass %) is used.

Abstract: To provide a mold having optical transparency, release properties, mechanical strength, dimension stability and a highly precise micropattern, and having less deformation of the micropattern; and a process for producing a base material with a transferred micropattern having less deformation of the transferred micropattern, capable of transferring highly precise micropattern of the mold. A mold 10 comprising a transparent substrate (A) 12 having chemical bonds based on the functional groups (x) on the surface having an interlayer (C) 14 formed, having a difference in linear expansion coefficient (absolute value) of less than 30 ppm/° C. from the linear expansion coefficient of the following fluoropolymer (I), and further having a heat distortion temperature of from 100 to 300° C.
