Abstract: A protective film-forming composition including good mask (protection) function against a wet etching liquid and a high dry etching rate during processing of semiconductor substrates, including good coverage even in stepped substrates, and from which flat films can be formed due to a small difference in film thickness after embedding; a protective film produced using said composition; a substrate with a resist pattern; and a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device. A protective film-forming composition which protects against a semiconductor wet etching liquid, wherein a reaction product (P) of a diepoxy compound (B) and an bifunctional proton-generating compound (C) contains a structure represented by formula (1) (in formula (1), Ar represents a C6-40 aryl group, n represents an integer of 2-10, —Y— represents —OCO—, —O— or —S—, and * represents the bonding site with the reaction product (P) molecule terminal). The protective film-forming composition further includes an organic solvent (S).

Abstract: The present invention provides a decolorized red phosphorus composition capable of inhibiting coloring in dark red peculiar to red phosphorus even when kneaded with a resin or the like, modified red phosphorus used for the decolorized red phosphorus composition and a production method therefor, and a flame-retardant polymer composition using the decolorized red phosphorus composition. The modified red phosphorus includes red phosphorus particles (A) whose surfaces are coated with a modified resin film (F) containing white particles (B) having a whiteness of 70 or more, color particles (C) having a hue H of 30 to 80 in the Munsell color-system hue circle, and a binder resin (D). The decolorized red phosphorus composition includes a mixed powder containing the modified red phosphorus and white particles (B) having a whiteness of 70 or more. The flame-retardant polymer composition contains the decolorized red phosphorus composition and a polymer compound (I).
