Abstract
Abstract This invention relates to proof film-type light sensitive diazonium materials containing accelerators selected from sulfur and/or amide-containing compounds which are capable of accelerating the contact exposure of negative-working diazonium compounds when such diazonium compounds are subjected to UV radiation. These accelerators enhance essentially photosensitivity speed. The invention also relates to presensitized reproduction materials comprising diazonium materials containing these accelerators.
