Claims
- 1. A soldered printed circuit board produced by
- (A) depositing a solution or dispersion of a radiation-polymerizable mixture comprising:
- (a) a first compound having at least two terminal ethylenically unsaturated groups which are capable of forming a crosslinked polymer by a free radical-initiated, addition-type chain polymerization;
- (b) a polymeric binder consisting of:
- (1) at least one unit of methacrylic acid,
- (2) at least one unit of a methacrylic acid ester,
- (3) at least one unit of a styrene selected from the group consisting of styrene, O-, m-, or p-vinyltoluene, a vinylethylbenzene, an .alpha.-methylstyrene, an .alpha.-chlorostyrene, an o-, m-, or p-chlorostyrene, and a vinyanisole, and
- (4) an optional monomer selected from the group consisting of an acrylic acid, an acrylic acid ester, acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile, acrylamide, methacrylamide, and a vinylheterocyclic compound, wherein said styrene is present in an amount of about 40 to 65% by weight and said methacrylic acid ester is present in an amount of about 5 to 40% by weight, in each case relative to the weight of said polymeric binder and wherein said methacrylic acid is present in an amount sufficient to confer an acid number from 110 to 280 to said polymeric binder;
- (c) from 20 to 50% of a finely divided silicate- or silicic acid-based mineral pigment;
- (d) from 0.1 to 15% of a radiation activatable polymerization initiator;
- (e) from 10 to 30% of a second compound having at least two epoxy groups in its molecule; and
- (f) from 0.2 to 1.0% of a thermally activatable polymerization initiator for epoxy groups;
- the percentages of components (a), (b), (c),(d),(e), and (f) being based on the total amount of non-volatile ingredients of the mixture;
- (B) drying the resultant coated printed circuit board,
- (C) exposing the coated board to actinic radiation to form an image,
- (D) washing out the non-irradiated coated regions with a developer,
- (E) heating the resultant solder mask to an elevated temperature, and
- (F) subjecting the resultant circuit board to at least one soldering process.
