Abstract:
The present invention relates to a radiation-sensitive composition containing a resinous binder which is insoluble in water, but soluble or at least swellable in aqueous alkaline solutions, at least one radiation-sensitive compound and optionally a crosslinking agent. The radiation-sensitive compound is an ester composed of a) a compound containing 2 to 6 aromatic hydroxyl groups, b) a ring-substituted (o-naphthoquinone 2-diazide)-4-sulfonic acid (diazo compound D.sub.1) and c) an (o-naphthoquinone 2-diazide)-4- or -5-sulfonic acid which is not further substituted (diazo compound D.sub.2) and/or a non-radiation-sensitive organic acid (compound D.sub.0) , where the D.sub.1 :(D.sub.2 and/or D.sub.0) molar ratio is between about 0.1:1 and 30:1.
Abstract:
The invention relates to novel radiation-sensitive compounds which are esters or amides of a 1,2-naphthoquinone-(2)-diazide-4-sulfonic acid of the general formula ##STR1## in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are identical or different and denote hydrogen, an alkyl group, an alkyl ether group or an alkyl thioether group whose carbon chains may be interrupted by ether oxygen atoms, an acylamino group, carboxylic acid ester group, sulfonic acid ester group or sulfonamide group,R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 not being hydrogen at the same time.The compounds are used as radiation-sensitive components in radiation-sensitive mixtures with which corresponding copying materials can be produced. The compounds have an absorption which is directed towards longer wavelengths matching the emission range of commercially available radiation sources. They also make it possible, in a reliable and practical manner, to carry out negativeworking image reversal processes.
Abstract:
This invention relates to 2-hydroxy-3-naphthoic acid amides of the general formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is hydrogen, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, aralkyl, or aryl group, and R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are identical or different and are hydrogen, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, aralkyl, or aryl group, or, together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached, a substituted or unsubstituted heterocyclic group.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a process for preparing 1,2-naphthoquinone-(2)-diazide-4-sulfonic acid esters of the general formula I ##STR1## which are substituted in at least one of the positions 5, 6, 7 or 8 by R=halogen, alkoxy groups or alkoxycarbonyl groups and in which X denotes an aryl group. The process comprises steps in whicha) suitably substituted .beta.-naphthol is nitrosated,b) sulfonation with alkali hydrogensulfite and acid in position 4 and reduction are carried out,c) the naphthalenesulfonic acid derivative is oxidized,d) the 1,2-naphthoquinone-4-sulfonic acid formed is reacted with toluenesulfonohydrazide in an organic solvent at temperatures from 20.degree. to 100.degree. C.,e) the naphthoquinonediazide compound is converted with chlorosulfonic acid or chlorosulfonic acid/thionyl chloride into the sulfonyl chloride, and f) the sulfonyl chloride is condensed with a phenolic component, a purification of the respective intermediate product by reprecipitation or recrystallization being unnecessary.The process makes a simple technical procedure possible with good yield. The compounds prepared, in particular the 1,2-naphthoquinone-(2)-diazide-4-sulfonic acid esters substituted by 6-alkoxycarbonyl groups or by 7-alkoxy groups, are used as radiation-sensitive components in radiation-sensitive mixtures.

This invention relates to a derivative of 2-hydroxy-naphthalene of the general formula ##STR1## wherein A is ##STR2## and X is --OH or ##STR3## and R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, and R.sub.4 are identical or different and are hydrogen, cycloalkyl having up to eight carbon atoms, which is optionally substituted by lower alkyl groups, aralkyl having up to 10 carbon atoms or aryl which is substituted by lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, halogenalkyl or alkyl-substituted amino groups or by halogen, or R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 or R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 in each case are, conjointly with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached, identical or different heterocyclic groups which are optionally substituted by lower alkyl.
Abstract:
A two-component diazotype material, composed of a support and a light-sensitive layer which is applied thereto and contains a polymeric binder, a diazonium salt, a coupler, an acid stabilizer and conventional additives, wherein the support is a biaxially oriented polyester film and the polymeric binder comprises a mixture of about 10-60 percent by weight of a polymer or copolymer of vinyl acetate, for example, a copolymer of vinyl acetate and crotonic acid, and about 40-90 percent by weight of a cellulose ester, such as cellulose acetopropionate, cellulose acetobutyrate, cellulose propionate or cellulose butyrate.
Abstract:
A THERMOGRTAPHIC MATERIAL CAPABLE OF FIXING AGAINST POST-IMAGING HEAT EFFECTS IS PREPARED BY COATING A TRANSPARENT NATURAL PAPER SUPPORT WITH A COMPOSITION COMPRISING A HEAT AND LIGHT-SENSITIVE DIAZO COMPOUND AND AN ORGAINC ACID. THERMOGRAPHIC EXPOSURE OT INFRARED RADIATION RESULTS IN THE FORMATION OF AN OPAQUE DECOMPOSITION IMAGE IN THE SUPPORT. POST-IMAGING EXPOSURE TO ACTINIC LIGHT DECOMPOSES THE DIAZO COMPOUND WITHOUT IMAGE FORMATION TO RENDER THE MATERIAL INSENSITIVE TO SUBSQUENT HEATING.

A light-sensitive mixture which contains a resinous binder which is insoluble in water but soluble or at least swellable in aqueous-alkaline solutions, and an o-naphthoquinonediazide-sulfonic acid ester, the o-naphthoquinonediazide-sulfonic acid ester being of the formula I ##STR1## in which R is hydrogen or an alkyl or aryl radical andR.sub.1 is hydrogen or a 1,2-naphthoquinone-2-diazide-4-sulfonyl, 1,2-naphthoquinone-2-diazide-5-sulfonyl or 7-methoxy-1,2-naphthoquinone-2-diazide-4-sulfonyl radical,and the number of the identical or different naphthoquinonediazide-sulfonyl radicals, defined as R.sub.1, in the molecule being 1 to 5; is useful in the preparation of light-sensitive resist materials. The resist material produced using the light-sensitive mixture has a high light sensitivity and very good developer resistance to alkaline developers and can be developed without any problems with aqueous, weakly alkaline solutions.
