Digital mold texturizing methods, materials, and substrates

摘要

A multi-layer ink receptive substrate is described. The ink-receptive substrate can comprise a micro-porous ink receptive layer, a degradable binder layer and a carrier layer. The degradable binder layer is positioned intermediate the micro- porous ink receptive layer and the insoluble carrier layer. A method of forming an acid-resist pattern using such a substrate is also described. The method comprises depositing an acid-resistant ink jetted UV-curable material onto the multi-layer ink receptive substrate. at least partially curing the acid-resistant ink jetted UV-curable material and transferring the acid-resistant ink jetted UV-cured material to a substrate to be etched.
