A negative photosensitive polymer composition, which comprises a thermosetting polymer precursor which can be cured through cyclodehydration upon heating, and a photosensitive heat cure accelerator which is capable of accelerating a curing upon irradiation of light (cyclodehydration accelerating property). This photosensitive heat cure accelerator may be a compound which is capable of increasing molecular weight and raising volatilization temperature upon irradiation of light, or a compound which is capable of generating a carboxyl group upon irradiation of light thereby exhibiting a heat cure-accelerating property, and is formed of an aromatic hydrocarbon or aromatic heterocyclic compound having at least one hydroxyl group, substituted or unsubstituted amino group or mercapto group. |
