A radiation-sensitive composition includes a radically polymerizable component and an initiator composition capable of generating radicals sufficient to initiate polymerization of the radically polymerizable component upon exposure to imaging radiation. This composition also includes a radiation absorbing compound, a polymeric binder having poly(alkylene glycol) side chains, and a nonionic phosphate acrylate that has a molecular weight of at least 250. This composition can be used to prepare a negative-working imageable element that is sensitive to suitable imaging radiation and can be imaged at relatively low energy, developed either on-press or off-press, and then used for printing without a post-exposure baking step.
