摘要:
A new liquid cleaner composition is provided for the mild and gentle removal of polymeric materials from sufaces without leaving any residues. The said new cleaner composition is an emulsion of the water-in-oil type comprising an aqueous phase finely dispersed in a continuous phase selected from the group consisting of nonflammable, fire-retardant, high-boiling, and fire-retardant and high-boiling organic phases, the volume ratio of the finely dispersed aqueous phase to the continuous organic phase being in the range of from 90:10 to 10:90. The new liquid cleaner composition can contain alcohols, surface-active agents and further useful additives. The new liquid cleaner composition is most preferably used in the process for preparing photopolymerized flexographic relief printing plates as the developer for washing out the non-irradiated and thus non-photopolymerized areas of the imagewise irradiated relief-forming recording layers of the said flexographic relief printing plates.

The present invention relates to an improved process for preparing a photopolymerized flexographic relief printing plate or a photoresist from a photosensitive element comprising a photopolymerizable layer consisting essentially of(A) at least one polymer as the binder,(B) at least one photopolymerizable monomer compatible with said binder (A) and(C) one photoinitiator, by(i) imagewise exposing said photopolymerizable layer of said element to actinic light and(ii) washing out the unexposed, non-photopolymerized parts of said layer with a developer, thereby obtaining a photopolymerized flexographic relief printing plate or a photoresist.The improvement of said process comprises: washing out the non-photopolymerized parts of the irradiated photopolymerizable layer with the developer which consists essentially of at least one hydrogenated petroleum fraction having a flashpoint above 45.degree. C. and a boiling range of from 160.degree. to 220.degree. C., 0 to 2% by weight, based on the developer, of at least one surface active compound and 0 to 10% by weight, based on the developer, of a monoterpene. In a preferred embodiment the improved process makes use of a developer which contains, in addition to the abovementioned components, 5 to 20 vol. %, based on the developer, of an alcohol selected from the group consisting of alcohols with 4 to 8 carbon atoms.

In a process for preparing a photopolymer printing plate, relief plate or photoresist from a photosensitive recording element containingA) a photopolymerizable relief-forming layer which can be developed with liquid developer after imagewise exposure to actinic light,B) a top layer which consists of polymers forming films of high tensile strength, adheres firmly to the photopolymerizable relief-forming layer (A) and is soluble or swellable in the liquid developers andC) a cover sheet which can readily be peeled off from the top layer (B), comprising peeling off the cover sheet (C) from the top layer (B), imagewise exposing to actinic light and developing the relief-forming layer (A), the formation of an electrostatic charge on top of the photosensitive recording element being prevented by incorporating into the element a top layer (B) containing specific tertiary amines and/or amides and/or specific quaternary ammonium salts.
摘要:
A novel, improved continuous process for the production of a photosensitive recording element is described, whose photopolymerizable recording layer (A) consists of two or more individual strata (a.sub.n) lying one on top of the other and firmly bonded to one another. The individual strata (a.sub.n) may be of the same or roughly the same composition or of different compositions. In the novel, improved continuous process, the mixtures (a.sub.n) used for the production of the individual strate (a.sub.n) are prepared separately from one another and melted and, as separate molten material streams (a.sub.n), are combined even before entering the nip of a calender, without the said streams mixing as a result of turbulence. During, before or directly after they have been combined, the molten material streams (a.sub.n) are formed into molten sheet-like structures (a.sub.n) lying one on top of the other, without the said streams mixing as a result of turbulence. Thereafter, the molten sheet-like structures (a.sub.n) lying one on top of the other are introduced into the calender nip, one or both of the two outer molten sheet-like structures (a.sub.n) in contact with the calender rollers forming a rotating melt bead or rotating bank. In the calender nip itself, the said sheet-like structures (a.sub.n) are then calendered with production of the photopolymerizable recording layer (A) consisting of individual strata (a.sub.n) lying one on top of the other and firmly bonded to one another.
