Abstract

Abstract A light-sensitive mixture, which is composed of a light-sensitive 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.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 80 words
A light-sensitive mixture comprising, as the light-sensitive compound, an o-quinone-diazide or, as a light-sensitive combination of compounds, a mixture of (a) a compound which releases an acid on exposure, and (b) a compound containing at least one C--O--C group which can be cleaved by an acid, the solubility of which mixture in an aqueous-alkaline solution is increased upon exposure, and a novolak containing brominated phenol units wherein the brominated novolak contains about 15 to 50 percent by weight of bromine.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 80 words
A light-sensitive mixture comprising, as the light-sensitive compound, an o-quinone-diazide or, as a light-sensitive combination of compounds, a mixture of (a) a compound which releases an acid on exposure, and (b) a compound containing at least one C--O--C group which can be cleaved by an acid, the solubility of which mixture in an aqueous-alkaline solution is increased upon exposure, and a novolak containing brominated phenol units wherein the brominated novolak contains about 15 to 50 percent by weight of bromine.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 90 words
A light-sensitive copying material comprising a support and a light-sensitive layer thereon which contains, as the light-sensitive compound, an o-quinone-diazide or, as a light-sensitive combination of compounds, a mixture of (a) a compound which releases an acid on exposure, and (b) a compound containing at least one C--O--C group which can be cleaved by an acid, the solubility of which mixture in an aqueous-alkaline solution is increased upon exposure, and a novolak containing brominated phenol units wherein the brominated novolak contains about 15 to 50 percent by weight of bromine.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 90 words
A light-sensitive copying material comprising a support and a light-sensitive layer thereon which contains, as the light-sensitive compound, an o-quinone-diazide or, as a light-sensitive combination of compounds, a mixture of (a) a compound which releases an acid on exposure, and (b) a compound containing at least one C--O--C group which can be cleaved by an acid, the solubility of which mixture in an aqueous-alkaline solution is increased upon exposure, and a novolak containing brominated phenol units wherein the brominated novolak contains about 15 to 50 percent by weight of bromine.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 30 words
A light-sensitive mixture as claimed in claim 1 which additionally contains a resin which is insoluble in water and soluble in aqueous-alkaline solutions and which is not a brominated novolak.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 15 words
A light-sensitive mixture as claimed in claim 1 which additionally contains a thermosetting hydroxymethylphenol derivative.
