摘要:
A positive-working multi-layer lithographic printing plate precursor has an inner imageable layer disposed over a substrate. This inner imageable layer comprises one or more first polymeric binders that are present in a total amount of at least 50 weight % and up to and including 97 weight %, based on total inner imageable layer dry weight. The precursor also has an ink-receptive outer imageable layer disposed over the inner imageable layer and this ink-receptive outer imageable layer comprises one or more second polymeric binders that are different than the first polymeric binder. Each of the one or more first polymeric binders has a weight average molecular weight of at least 200,000 and can also have a polydispersity of at least 4.

摘要:
Positive-working imageable elements and methods for their preparation are disclosed. The elements comprise a hydrophilic substrate; a bottom layer, which contains a positive-working photosensitive composition; and a protective overlayer, which has an overlayer material that reduces the solubility of the photosensitive composition in an aqueous alkaline developer. The overlayer may be conveniently applied by a dip and rinse procedure.
摘要:
A thermally-sensitive, positive-working lithographic printing plate precursor can be used to prepare lithographic printing plates using high pH, silicate-free processing solutions. The precursor has a grained an anodized aluminum-containing substrate including a poly(vinyl phosphonic acid) interlayer. A first ink receptive layer, and optionally a second ink receptive layer, is disposed directly on the poly(vinyl phosphonic acid) interlayer. This first ink receptive layer comprises an aromatic acid dye that comprises at least two aromatic groups in an amount of least 0.5 weight %. In addition, the precursor comprises an infrared radiation absorber in one of the layers.

The invention relates to a process for the production of a heat-sensitive imageable element comprising: (a) providing a substrate, (b) applying a first coating solution, comprising at least one photothermal conversion material, at least one polymer A soluble or swellable in an aqueous alkaline developer and at least one solvent, (c) drying, (d) applying a second coating solution, comprising at least one cross-linkable polyfunctional enolether, at least one polymer B comprising hydroxy groups and/or carboxy groups, and at least one solvent, wherein the polymer used in the first coating solution does not dissolve in this solvent, wherein the second coating solution does not contain a photothermal conversion material, and (e) drying at a temperature of at least 60° C.
摘要:
Electrochemically grained and anodized aluminum supports are treated with a post-treatment coating solution containing a polymer derived at least in part from vinyl phosphonic acid and phosphoric acid. This post-treated support is useful as substrates in the preparation of lithographic printing plate precursors. The post-treatment substrate treatment enables wide latitude in manufacturing and compatibility with silicate-free developers to achieve negligible background staining and oxide attack.
摘要:
Lithographic printing plate precursors can have an imageable layer that includes a polymeric binder having an acid number of at least 30 mg KOH/g of polymer to and including 150 mg KOH/g of polymer, at least 3 weight % of recurring units derived from one or more N-alkoxymethyl (alkyl)acrylamides or alkoxymethyl (alkyl)acrylates, at least 2 weight % of recurring units having pendant 1H-tetrazole groups, and at least 10 weight % of recurring units having pendant cyano groups. The use of such polymeric binders provides good bakeability and chemical solvent resistance, especially for positive-working precursors.
