Abstract

Abstract This invention relates to a process for the preparation of screen printing stencils with the aid of an intermediate support for the copying layer, which comprises providing a sheet-like intermediate support with a layer comprising at least one binder and at least one diazonium salt of the general formula WHEREIN R1, R2, R3, and R4 are selected from the group consisting of hydrogen atoms, halogen atoms, alkyl groups with 1 or 2 carbon atoms, or alkoxy groups with 1 to 4 carbon atoms, Y is selected from the group consisting of a single bond, or one of the groups -O-, -S-, -NH-, or -CONH-, and X is the anion of the diazonium salt, OR A DIAZO AMINO COMPOUND DERIVED FROM SUCH DIAZONIUM SALT; PRESSING THE LAYER SIDE OF THE LIGHT-SENSITIVE MATERIAL THUS PRODUCED UPON A SCREEN PRINTING SUPPORT WHICH BEFORE OR AFTER CONTACT WITH THE LIGHT-SENSITIVE LAYER IS MOISTENED WITH A SOLUTION OF AT LEAST ONE ALDEHYDE OR AT LEAST ONE COMPOUND CONTAINING AT LEAST ONE SUBSTITUENT OF THE FORMULA
