What is claimed is:
1. A process for forming an image with a positive resist, said process comprising the steps of:
1. forming on a substrate a film of a composition comprising a polymer containing the structural unit ##EQU3## wherein R is H, CH.sub.3 or C.sub.2 H.sub.5,
2. exposing said film in a predetermined pattern to radiation,
3. removing the radiation exposed portion of said film with a solvent. 2. A process as claimed in claim 1 wherein the radiation is by means of an electron beam.
3. A process as claimed in claim 1 wherein the radiation is by means of light.
4. A process as claimed in claim 1 wherein R is hydrogen.
5. A process as claimed in claim 1 wherein R is CH.sub.3.
6. A process as claimed in claim 1 wherein R is C.sub.2 H.sub.5.
7. A process as claimed in claim 1 wherein the polymer is poly(dimethacrylimide).
8. A process as claimed in claim 1 wherein the polymer is a copolymer of dimethacrylimide and another vinyl type monomer.
9. A process as claimed in claim 1 wherein the polymer is a copolymer of dimethacrylimide and methyl methacrylate.
10. A process for the in situ preparation of a resist film, said process comprising heating a resist film containing dimethacrylic structures with ammonia, methyl amine or ethyl amine.
