Photosensitive resin compositions

A photosensitive resin composition comprising: (d) at least one polybenzoxazole precursor polymer (e) at least one compound having structure VI V1-Y-V2 VI wherein Y is selected from S, O, NR2, (HOCH)p, and each R1 is selected H, an alkyl group, an alkenyl group, an alkynyl group, an alkoxy group or a halogen, each R2 is selected from H, SH, CH3, C2H5, and a linear or branched C1-C4 alkyl group containing a thiol group; p is an integer of from 1 to 4, and wherein V1 and V2 are independently selected from the group consisting of wherein, m is independently an integer from 0 to 4 with the proviso that m=0 only when Y= n is an integer from 1 to 5; and each R1 is defined as above; and (f) at least one solvent; wherein the amount of the compound of Structure VI present is an amount effective to inhibit residue from forming when the composition is coated on a substrate and the substrate is subsequently processed to form an image, and with the proviso that if the polybenzoxazole precursor polymer solely consists of polybenzoxazole precursor polymers that do not contain a photoactive moiety on the polymer, then (d) at least one photoactive compound is also present in the composition.
