Abstract:
IMPROVED RELIEF PLATES, PARTICULARLY PRINTING PLATES, PREPARED BY EXPOSING UNDER AN IMAGE-BEARING TRANSPARENCY A LAYER, WHICH CAN BE CROSSLINKED BY EXPOSURE AND HAS BEEN APPLIED TO A LIGHT-REFLECTING SUBSTRATE OF A SUBSTANTIALLY HOMOGENEOUS MIXTURE OF SOLID POLYMMERS, MONOMERS, PHOTOINITIATORS AND, IF DESIRED, POLYMERIZATION INHIBITORS, WHICH MIXTURE ALSO CONTAINS FINELY DISPERSED THEREIN A SOLUBLE METAL COMPLEX DYE, AND WASHING OUT THE UNEXPOSED AREAS.
Abstract:
THE INVENTION RELATES TO PLATES, SHEETS OR FILMS APPLIED TO A HIGHLY REFLECTIVE MATERIAL, AND WHICH ARE USED TO PREPART PRINTING PLATES, SAID PLATES, SHEETS OR FILMS BEING FORMED FROM A MIXTURE CONTAINING AN INDIGOID DYE AND CONSISTING OF A POLYMERIC BASE MATERIAL, MONOMERS HAVING AT LEAST TWO POLYMERIZABLE DOUBLE BONDS, PHOTOINITIATORS AND/OR POLYMERIZATION INHIBITORS.
Abstract:
PHOTOPOLYMERIZABLE COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING PHOROPOLYMERIZABLE ETHYLENICALLY UNSATURATED MONOMERIC COMPOUNDS, A POLYMER AS BINDER AND ALSO OZYPHOSPHORANES. THE ADDITION OF OXYPHOSPHORANES CONSIDERABLY IMPROVES THE PHOTOSENSITIVITY OF THE PHOTOPOLYMERIZABLE COMPOSITIONS AND THE CONSTANCY OF SAID SENSITIVITY EVEN WHEN THEY ARE STORED FOR PROLONGED PERIODS.
Abstract:
Improved solid or semisolid photopolymerizable layers for use in producing relief printing plates, said layers including a photopolymerizable compound having at least two polymerizable olefinic double bonds, a photoinitiator, and an indigoid dye, and a process for determining the light sensitivity of said layer by using said indigoid dye as a color indicator whereby the amount of exposure required to photopolymerize the layer by irradiation is accurately determined.
Abstract:
The process of making poromeric materials which comprises impregnating webs of fibrous material with aqueous liquids containing olefinically unsaturated monomers which can be polymerized using redox catalysts, and, if desired, high polymeric plastics in dissolved, emulsified or dispersed form, freezing the webs of fibrous materials impregnated with the aqueous liquids, polymerizing the monomers using redox catalysts and thawing out and separating out the water and any residual monomer from the resulting poromeric materials. These poromeric materials are suitable as floor coverings, insulating materials, leather substitutes and coating materials.
Abstract:
Production of poromeric materials by impregnating flat fibrous structures with liquids containing monoolefinically unsaturated monomers and high polymeric plastics in dissolved, emulsified or dispersed form, but no polyolefinically unsaturated monomers, freezing the impregnated fibrous structures, irradiating the frozen structures to effect polymerization of the monomers, and freeing the poromeric materials from the remaining liquid. The poromeric materials may be used as floor coverings, insulating materials, leather substitutes and coating materials.
