  • Carrier materials for offset printing plates are provided either by the consumer directly or by the manufacturer of precoated printing plates on one or both sides with a radiation-sensitive layer (reproduction layer), with the aid of which a printing image of a template is generated by photomechanical means.
  • the layer support carries the image points which will guide the color during the later printing and at the same time forms the hydrophilic image background for the lithographic printing process at the non-image points during the later printing.
  • aluminum, steel, copper, brass or zinc, but also plastic films or paper can be used as the base material for such layer supports. These raw materials are modified by suitable modifications such.
  • Additional requirements are imposed on the radiation-sensitive coated printing plate support, some of which interact with the requirements for the support material itself. These include, for example, a high sensitivity to radiation (light), good developability, clear contrasts after exposure and / or development, long print runs and reproduction that is as accurate as possible; increasingly play, especially in the case of printing plates with positive-working radiation-sensitive layers, also a behavior of the radiation-sensitive layer that is as free of radiation as possible when irradiating (exposing) the printing plate and good (ie with as little water as possible and with the greatest possible fluctuation tolerance in the water requirement during printing) Water routing of the printing forms plays an important role.
  • This matte layer generally is a layer of binder (for. Example, of a cellulose ether) with incorporated by dispersion therein, delustering particles, such as those made of Si0 2, ZnO, Ti0 2, Zr0 2, glass, A1 2 0 3, starch or polymers.
  • a printing plate constructed in this way is intended to shorten the time required to achieve the most extensive and uniform possible contact between the film template and the radiation-sensitive layer during the exposure stage of the printing form production process.

H.
  • under-radiation lateral and oblique radiation incidence
  • the application or introduction of particles with a binder onto or without a special binder in the radiation-sensitive layer is a complex process step that requires a great deal of care, particularly in modern, continuously running coating systems.

  • the additives have no particular influence on the water flow of the printing form.
  • the process for producing a support for lithographic printing plates according to DE-OS 30 12 135 is carried out in at least three stages, with a) the aluminum plate being mechanically roughened, b) from the roughened surface 5 to 20 g / m 2 are removed and c) an electrochemical roughening is carried out with an electric current of alternating waveform in an aqueous acid solution, and this current must have certain parameters. After the electrochemical roughening, further ablation treatment and also anodic oxidation of the roughened surface can follow.
  • the surface topography of the support must look such that the surface in the primary structure shows even hills, overlaid by a secondary structure that shows pinholes, the respective bisecting axis of which is approximately perpendicular to the tangent to the outer surface of the hill.
  • the statistical distribution of the diameter of the pinholes is approximately such that 5% of the holes have a diameter D 5 of at most 3 ⁇ m and 95% of the holes have a diameter D 95 of at most 7 ⁇ m, ie the majority of the holes are in the range between 3 and 7 ⁇ m, especially between 5 and 7 pm.
  • the density of the pinholes is approximately 10 6 to 10 8 holes per cm 2 .

  • the mean roughness values are determined and calculated from the two measurements as the arithmetic mean of the absolute distance of all points on the surface of the roughness profile from the center line of the profile.
  • the average roughness value R a is then the average value of the average roughness values in the parallel and perpendicular directions.
  • the load fraction tp mi is the ratio of the load-bearing length of the roughness profile to the measuring section of the roughness profile in the selected depth of cut of 0.125 ⁇ m or 0.4 ⁇ m in%, i.e. in the present case tp mi (0.125) is less than t pmi (0 , 4); the bearing component t pmi is also the average value of the bearing components in the parallel and vertical direction;
  • the roughness profile is the difference between the palpated profile and the envelope line (path of the center of a center point of a ball rolling over the profile, which is generally formed electronically in a stylus device); the depth of cut indicates the distance from the envelope line of the bearing component is determined.
  • a curve drawn up from the load components can, for example, provide information about the behavior in use, too high, ie load components above the claimed values lead to less suitable materials in the present field of application.

  • Pre-cleaning includes, for example, treatment with aqueous NaOH solution with or without degreasing agent and / or complexing agents, trichlorethylene, acetone, methanol or other commercially available aluminum stains. Wire brushing has been used in the relevant field for years and requires no further explanation.

  • the distribution of the hole sizes is generally more uniform than in processes without prior mechanical roughening.
  • This stage is carried out in such a way that the basic topography of the mechanically roughened surface, characterized by the mean roughness value and the load-bearing component, changes only relatively little, but a hole structure that is as closed as possible, caused by the electrochemical roughening, is additionally formed, so that the external appearance shows a basic structure for 60 to 90% of the surface with the hole diameter distribution given above and a structure which appears as a superimposed structure from elevations for 10 to 40% of the surface.
