Abstract: This patent describes a lithographic printing plate comprising on a substrate a semisolid radiation-sensitive layer capable of hardening upon exposure to a suitable radiation, and a method of imaging such a plate using laser radiation. The utilization of a semisolid radiation-sensitive layer allows faster photospeed and better curing efficiency as desired for digital laser exposure. Several plate designs can be utilized to overcome the tackiness issue associate with the semisolid layer, such as conformally coating the radiation-sensitive layer on a rough substrate and utilizing an overcoat. Plates having an ink and/or fountain solution or dispersible semisolid radiation-sensitive layer can be directly developed with ink and/or fountain solution while solution while mounted on press, with the imagewise laser exposure being carried out on press or off press.

Abstract: Disclosed are a printing plate precursor, a fabrication process of the printing plate precursor, a fabrication process of a printing plate, a regeneration process of the printing plate, a printing press, and a coating formulation for the printing plate precursor. According to the present invention, a printing plate can be fabricated directly from digital data, and sufficient image quality can be obtained without a developing step, i.e., a developer. To permit repeated use of the precursor, the precursor has a surface, which contains a photocatalyst and is capable of showing hydrophilicity when exposed to activating light having energy higher than band gap energy of the photocatalyst. A coating formulationnullwhich comprises fine particles of a thermoplastic resin having both a property that the particles unite to the surface when heated and a property that the particles decompose under action of the photocatalyst when exposed to activating light having energy higher than band gap energy of the photocatalystnullis applied as a hydrophobizing agent onto the surface. At least a part of the surface of the precursor is heated such that the fine particles applied on the part of the surface are fixed to form a hydrophobic image area. The fine particles applied on the remaining part of the surface with the image area formed thereon are then removed.
