Abstract:
Described herein are a method for recording luminescent compositions, comprising a) providing a luminescent composition which comprises at least a first and second luminescent compound, wherein the first luminescent compound is a donor compound having a peak luminescent emission spectrum at a given wavelength, wherein the second luminescent compound is an acceptor compound having a peak absorption spectrum at a longer wavelength than the given wavelength, and wherein the emission spectrum of the donor compound at least partially overlaps the absorption spectrum of the acceptor compound; b) combining the composition with a substrate, so that at least a portion of the composition is available for exposure to a photon source; and c) embedding information at predetermined sites in the combined composition by localized exposure to a photon source, the embedding resulting in an information pattern when exposed to a luminescence deciphering device, and uses of said information pattern.
Abstract:
There is provided a copolymer and polymeric particle comprising the copolymer, a method of producing a polymeric particle, a copolymeric binder, a method of producing a copolymeric binder, a near infrared radiation-sensitive coating composition, a negative working lithographic offset printing plate, a method of producing a negative working lithographic offset printing plate and methods of imaging the plate and printing with the imaged plate.
Abstract:
This invention relates to iodonium salts, acetal copolymers and polymer binders comprising functional groups capable of undergoing cationic or radical polymerization, their method of preparation and their use in the preparation of coating solutions and coatings. This invention also relates to coatings containing the iodonium salts, acetal copolymers and/or polymer binders and to negative working lithographic printing plates comprising these coatings.
