ABSTRACT:
Process for producing dimer-free phenolic polymers, particularly novolak polymers produced from cresol mixtures, and photoresist compositions containing such dimer-free novolak polymers. The process comprises reacting phenolic polymers containing phenolic dimers with a capping agent, such as a silylating agent, to cap all of the phenolic hydroxy groups. This reduces the distillation temperature of the capped dimers and renders the capped polymer stable at such distillation temperature. The capped dimers are distilled off, and finally the phenolic polymer is uncapped. Dimer-free novolaks produce scum-free developed photoresist images.
