A method of detecting an organic residue is provided. The method comprises a step of bringing a liquid A into contact with a surface of a base material; a step of measuring the contact angle (i) of a liquid B on the surface with which the liquid A came into contact; a step of heating and drying the base material; a step of measuring the contact angle (ii) of the liquid B on the dried surface; and a step of comparing the contact angle (i) with the contact angle (ii).

Photosensitive negative resin composition, fine structure, production process of fine structure and liquid ejection head

The invention provides a photosensitive negative resin composition containing (a) an epoxy-group-containing compound, (b) a first onium salt containing a cation portion structure represented by (b1) and an anion portion structure represented by (b2), and (c) a second onium salt containing a cation portion structure represented by (c1) and an anion portion structure represented by (c2). 

A print head includes an energy generating element, a chamber for accommodating liquid, and an ejection opening for ejecting liquid from the chamber, thus applying the energy to the liquid in the chamber from the energy generating element to eject the liquid from the ejection opening, wherein the ejection opening includes at least two projections convex to an inside of the ejection opening in a cross section perpendicular to a liquid ejecting direction and has a tapered angle &#x398;in regard to the liquid ejecting direction, enabling a meniscus of the liquid to be formed therebetween at the liquid ejecting time, and an outer edge portion has a tapered angle &#x398;in regard to the liquid ejecting direction, wherein the tapered angles &#x398;and &#x398;are defined to meet a formula of 0&#xb0;&#x2266;&#x398;&#x2266;10&#xb0; and a formula of &#x398;

Print head and inkjet printing apparatus

A liquid ejection head is manufactured by forming a dent representing a substantially spherical profile so as to include a position for forming an ejection port on a surface of a photosensitive resin layer, then forming a latent image of the ejection port in the dent by an exposure treatment using a projection lens system, and developing the latent image. The center of the top surface of the latent image is shifted to the incoming side of the beam of exposure light from the lowest point of the dent.
