Abstract

The present invention is to provide (i) a photosensitive dry film resist which allows water system development and which is excellent in resolution, flame retardancy, adhesiveness, moisture resistance, electric reliability, and preservation stability, (ii) a method for producing the photosensitive dry film resist, and (iii) usage thereof. The foregoing object can be achieved by using a multi-layer photosensitive dry film resist comprising at least: a first photosensitive layer which essentially includes a binder polymer (A1), a (meth)acrylic compound (B1), a photoreaction initiator (C1), and a flame retardant (D1), and a second photosensitive layer which essentially includes a binder polymer (A2), a (meth)acrylic compound (B2), a photoreaction initiator (C2) and which substantially does not include a flame retardant (D2), wherein: when a weight ratio of the flame retardant (D1) to an entire weight of the first photosensitive layer is defined as a first photosensitive layer flame retardant content and a weight ratio of the flame retardant (D2) to an entire weight of the second photosensitive layer is defined as a second photosensitive layer flame retardant content, the second photosensitive layer flame retardant content is 0 wt % or more and 10 wt % or less, and in case where the first photosensitive layer flame retardant content is 100, the second photosensitive layer flame retardant content is 0 wt % or more and 50 wt % or less.
