A heat mode recording material and method for making images therewith.

摘要

The present invention provides a heat mode recording material comprising on a transparent support a recording layer containing a light to heat converting substance, an image forming substance and a binder characterised in that there is present a heat decomposable intermediate layer between said transparent support and said recording layer and said heat decomposable intermediate layer being contiguous to said recording layer. High density images practically free of fog are obtained. The images are suitable for use as masks in contact exposures of lithographic printing plate precursors.
