Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2005018934A1] Multilayer, positive working, thermally imageable, bakeable imageable elements are disclosed. The elements have a substrate, an underlayer, and a top layer. The underlayer comprises a polymeric material that comprises, in polymerized form about 5 mol% to about 30 mol% of methacrylic acid; about 20 mol% to about 75 mol% of N-phenylmaleimide, N-cyclohexylmaleimide, N-benzylmaleimide, or a mixture thereof; optionally, about 5 mol% to about 50 mol% of methacrylamide; and about 3 mol% to about 50 mol% of a compound represented by the formula: CH2C(R2)C(O)NHCH2OR1, in which R1 is C1 to C12 alkyl, phenyl, C1 to C12 substituted phenyl, C1 to C12 aralkyl, or Si(CH3)3; and R2 is H or methyl. Other materials, such as a resin or resins having activated methylol and/or activated alkylated methylol groups, such as a resole resin, may be present in the underlayer. The elements produce bakeable lithographic printing plates that are resistant to press chemistries.
