Abstract: The present invention relates to a radiation-polymerizable mixture which includes a polymerizable compound, a polymeric binder which has units of methacrylic acid, a methacrylic acid ester and a styrene, the latter in a proportion of 40 to 65% by weight, a finely divided mineral pigment on a silicic acid or silicate basis, a photopolymerization initiator, a compound having at least two epoxy groups in its molecule and a thermal hardener for epoxy groups. The mixture is advantageous, in particular, for producing solder masks and can be cured after exposure to an image and development by heating to about 80.degree. to 150.degree. C. to form a stencil which is resistant under soldering conditions.

Abstract: A radiation-sensitive composition is disclosed which comprises: (a) a polymeric binder comprised of an alkenyl phenol monomer; (b) a compound which forms a strong acid under the action of actinic radiation; and (c) a compound which contains at least one acid-cleavable C-O-C bond and has a solubility in a liquid developer which is increased by the action of acid. The composition yields positive-working recording layers which are more flexible than layers comprising known novolak binders.
