Halomethyl-1,3,5-triazines containing a monomeric moiety

A radiation-sensitive composition comprising:

• (1) an ethylenically unsaturated, polymerizable compound, and (2) a compound having the formula:
• ##STR70## wherein A represents a member selected from the group consisting of mono-, di- and trihalomethyl groups,
• Y represents a member selected from the group consisting of A, L--M, NH.sub.2, NHR, NR.sub.2, OR, and R', where R independently represents a member selected from the group consisting of substituted and unsubstituted alkyl groups, and substituted and unsubstituted aryl groups, and R' represents a member selected from the group consisting of substituted and unsubstituted alkyl groups, substituted and unsubstituted aryl groups, substituted and unsubstituted alkenyl groups, substituted and unsubstituted polyalkenyl groups, substituted and unsubstituted alkynyl groups, substituted and unsubstituted polyalkynyl groups, and substituted and unsubstituted heteroaromatic groups,
• M represents at least one monomeric moiety capable of undergoing free radical or ionic chain polymerization, and
• L represents a group or a covalent bond linking the monomeric moiety to the triazine nucleus.
