Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, in the original plate for positive-working lithographic printing plates using such an infrared laser, the resistance to dissolution of the developer of the unexposed portion (image portion) and the solubility of the exposed portion (non-image portion) under various conditions The difference between them cannot be said to be sufficient. Due to changes in use conditions, it is easy to cause problems of excessive development and poor development.
The imaging ability of the original plate for lithographic printing plates depends on the heat generated by the infrared laser on the surface of the recording layer. In the vicinity of the support, due to heat diffusion, the heat used for imaging, that is, melting the recording layer is reduced, and the difference between exposure and unexposed is also very large. Small, so there is a problem of insufficient highlight reproducibility
[0005] For example, with regard to the latitude of development, an original plate material for positive-working lithography for plate making by UV exposure, that is, onium salts and quinoid diazide compounds containing binder resins soluble in alkaline solutions, This onium salt and quinone diazide compound, in the unexposed part (image part), interacts with the binder resin to act as a solvent repellant, and, in the exposed part (non-image part), , is decomposed by light to generate acid, and functions as a dissolution accelerator. There is almost no problem in the original material for lithographic printing plates in the past. However, when UV exposure is carried out through the image of the stone plate, it is easy to cause light to spread , there is also the problem of highlight reproducibility
[0006] On the other hand, in the original material for a positive-working lithographic printing plate using an infrared laser, the infrared absorber or the like only acts as a solvent repellant in the unexposed portion (image portion), and acts as a solvent repellant in the exposed portion (non-image portion). does not promote dissolution
Therefore, in the original material for a positive-working lithographic printing plate using an infrared laser, in order to make a difference in solubility between the unexposed part and the exposed part, a binder resin having high solubility in an alkaline developer has to be used in advance. However, the problems brought about are poor damage resistance, unstable state before development, etc.
