摘要 |
The invention relates to a recording material sensitive to IR radiation and having a substrate, a primer layer, an IR-absorbing layer and a silicone layer. The primer layer includes a mixture of an unmodified epoxy resin, an organic polymer having functional groups and a crosslinking agent which reacts with the epoxy resin and the functional groups of the organic polymer. The primer layer preferably contains at least one pigment, in particular inorganic pigments. For the production of a printing plate for waterless offset printing, the recording material is exposed imagewise to IR radiation and is then freed from the ablated layer components by washing with water or an aqueous solution. Preferably the radiation is IR laser radiation. The primer layer according to the invention results in particularly good adhesion of the IR-absorbing layer to the substrate without hindering the removal of the exposed parts of the IR-absorbing layer during development.
