Resin composition for forming receiving layer, and receiving substrate; printed matter, conductive pattern, and electric circuit produced by using the resin composition

A method for producing a conductive pattern comprising:

• applying a resin composition onto part of or an entire surface of a support, wherein the resin composition contains a urethane resin (A) having an alicyclic structure in an amount of 2,000 to 5,500 mmol/kg and a hydrophilic group, a vinyl polymer (B), and an aqueous medium (C);
• drying the resin composition under a condition in which the resin composition does not undergo a cross-linking reaction to form a receiving layer;
• performing printing on a surface of the receiving layer with a fluid containing a conductive substance or a pigment to form a printed portion composed of the conductive substance contained in the fluid;
• heating the receiving layer on which the printing has been performed to form a cross-linked structure;
• and
• then plating the printed portion formed on the surface of the receiving layer.
