Infrared-sensitive planographic printing plate precursor
View Patent ↗Provided is an infrared-sensitive planographic printing plate precursor, including a supporting plate, a recording layer formed on one face of the supporting plate, the recording layer containing a water-insoluble and alkali-soluble resin and an infrared absorbent and forming an image by irradiation of infrared ray, and an organic polymer layer having an arithmetic mean roughness Ra in the range of 0.05 to 0.40 μm, or an anodic oxide film having basis weight of 0.05 to 3.0 g/m 2 and an organic polymer layer formed in that order on face of the supporting plate opposite to the recording layer.
1. An infrared-sensitive planographic printing plate precursor, comprising
a supporting plate, a recording layer formed on one face of the supporting plate, the recording layer containing a water-insoluble and alkali-soluble resin and an infrared absorbent and being capable of forming an image by irradiation of an infrared ray, and an organic polymer layer having an arithmetic mean roughness Ra in the range of 0.05 to 0.40 μm formed on a face of the supporting plate opposite to the recording layer.
2. The infrared-sensitive planographic printing plate precursor of claim 1 , wherein the organic polymer layer has a matt layer formed on a surface thereof.
3. The infrared-sensitive planographic printing plate precursor of claim 1 , wherein the organic polymer layer comprises a matting agent.
4. The infrared-sensitive planographic printing plate precursor of claim 3 , wherein the matting agent is a long-chain alkyl group-containing polymer.
5. The infrared-sensitive planographic printing plate precursor of claim 4 , wherein the long-chain alkyl group-containing polymer is a polymer selected from polymers represented by the following Formulae (I), (II), (III), (IV) and (V):
wherein, X and X′ each independently represent a bivalent connecting group; m is an integer of 20 to 99; n is an integer of 6 to 40; and a binding site indicated by a dotted line has a methyl group or a hydrogen atom at an end thereof.
6. The infrared-sensitive planographic printing plate precursor of claim 4 , wherein the content of the long-chain alkyl group-containing polymer is 0.01 to 30 mass % with respect to the total solid content of the organic polymer layer.
7. The infrared-sensitive planographic printing plate precursor of claim 1 , wherein the organic polymer layer is surface-roughened.
8. The infrared-sensitive planographic printing plate precursor of claim 1 , wherein the arithmetic mean roughness Ra of the supporting plate is in the range of 0.01 to 0.60 μm.
9. An infrared-sensitive planographic printing plate precursor, comprising a supporting plate, a recording layer formed on one face of the supporting plate, the recording layer containing a water-insoluble and alkali-soluble resin and an infrared absorbent and being capable of forming an image by irradiation of an infrared ray, and an anodic oxide film having a basis weight of 0.05 to 3.0 g/m 2 and an organic polymer layer formed in that order on a face of the supporting plate opposite to the recording layer.
