Abstract:
A process for producing negative relief copies is disclosed in which a light-sensitive material, comprising (1) a light-sensitive ester or amide of a 1,2-quinone-diazide-sulfonic acid or of a 1,2-quinone-diazide-carboxylic acid and (2) a hexamethylol melamine ether is imagewise exposed, thereafter heated, and, after cooling, exposed again without an original, and subsequently developed by means of an aqueous-alkaline developer. The disclosed process permits the production of negative copies with the aid of a material which yields positive copies when it is processed in a conventional manner.
Abstract:
A light-sensitive mixture is described, which is specially intended for the production of planographic printing plates and which contains, as the light-sensitive compound, a naphthoquinonediazide sulfonic acid ester of the general formula I in which D is the 1, 2-naphthoquinone-2-diazide-5-sulfonyl radical or the 1, 2-naphthoquinone-2-diazide-4-sulfonyl radical, preferably the 1,2-naphthoquinone-2-diazide-5-sulfonyl radical, R and R' are hydrogen atoms, alkyl groups having 1 to 4 carbon atoms or radicals of the formula DO, and n denotes an integer from 6 to 18, preferably from 8 to 14. The new compounds are distinguished by good solubility and produce layers which have a high resistance to alkaline developer solutions and to damping solution containing alcohol.
Abstract:
A light-sensitive mixture comprising a light-sensitive naphthoquinone-diazide-sulfonic acid ester corresponding to the formula: I wherein D represents a 1,2-naphthoquinone-2-diazide-5-sulfonyl or -4-sulfonyl radical; R1, R2, R3, R1', R2' and R3' each represent hydrogen, halogen, alkyl groups having 1 to 4 carbon atoms or radicals of the formula DO and n represents an integer from 2 to 18; not more than three DO radicals in total being present on one benzene ring. The mixture is useful for preparing printing plates or photoresists.
Abstract:
A light-sensitive mixture, which is composed of a lightsensitive compound, for example, an o-quinone-diazide or a diazonium salt polycondensate, or a light-sensitive combination of compounds, for example, a photolytic acid donor and an acetal compound or orthocarboxylic acid compound which can be cleaved by acid, and of a novolak having halogenated phenol units is described. The mixture is preferably used for the preparation of printing plates, in particular planographic printing plates, which have an improved resistance to aqueous-alkaline developer solutions, gasoline hydrocarbons and fountain solutions containing alcohol.
