摘要:
Disclosed are a printing plate material capable of being developed on a printing press and its manufacturing method which comprises the steps of subjecting an aluminum plate to electrolytic surface roughening treatment, subjecting the electrolytic surface roughened aluminum plate to etching treatment in an aqueous alkali solution, subjecting the resulting aluminum plate to anodization treatment, whereby an aluminum support is obtained, and providing on the aluminum support an image formation layer which contains thermoplastic particles and a light-to-heat conversion dye and changes in color due to infrared laser exposure.
摘要:
This invention relates to an imageable element that can be imaged and developed to produce a printing plate. The imageable element comprises a substrate and a radiation-sensitive imageable composition applied to the substrate. The imageable composition comprises (a) a first layer having (i) a photosensitive composition which undergoes a decrease in solubility in developer upon absorption of actinic radiation and (ii) an inhibitor, and (b) a second layer comprising an ink-repellent polymeric material. In one embodiment, the inhibitor is activated by heat or radiation of longer wavelength than actinic radiation. Upon activation, the inhibitor retards the solubility decrease of the photosensitive composition upon absorption of actinic radiation. In another embodiment, the inhibitor initially retards the solubility decrease of the photosensitive composition upon absorption of actinic radiation. However, the inhibitor is deactivated by heat or radiation of longer wavelength than actinic radiation, and upon deactivation the inhibitor no longer retards the solubility decrease of the photosensitive composition.

A process for making a lithographic printing plate is provided that includes a step of producing a negative-working lithographic printing plate precursor comprising, above a support, a photopolymerizable photosensitive layer comprising a vinylcarbazole compound-derived monomer unit-containing acrylic polymer and/or a urethane-acrylic hybrid polymer, a step of imagewise exposing the negative-working lithographic printing plate precursor, and a step of developing the exposed negative-working lithographic printing plate precursor by means of a developer having a pH of 4 to 10, comprising (Component A) a compound represented by Formula (I) below and (Component B) water, and having an organic solvent content of less than 5 mass%, wherein the process does not comprise a washing step or a gumming step before or after the development step. In Formula (I), R 1 denotes a substituted or unsubstituted phenyl group, 1-naphthyl group, or 2-naphthyl group, and n denotes an integer of 4 to 20.
摘要:
A method of making a lithographic printing plate includes the steps of a) image-wise exposing a lithographic printing plate precursor including a hydrophilic support and a coating containing a colorant precursor to form a lithographic image consisting of printing areas and non-printing areas, b) developing the plate precursor to remove the coating in the non-printing areas from the support, and c) drying the plate precursor, and d) subjecting the plate precursor to heat or radiation to induce a colour change of the coating in the printing areas, wherein before step b) the coating in the non-printing areas and the support are characterised by a CIE 1976 colour difference ΔE1 which is 5.0 or less, and after step d) the CIE 1976 colour difference ΔE2 between the coating in the printing areas and the non-printing areas is more than 6.8.
