Definitions
- the present invention relates to an electrophotographic recording material consisting of an electrically conductive support and at least one photoconductive layer containing photoconductors, sensitizing dyes, binders and conventional additives.
- photoconductors for electrophotographic reproduction which are sensitive to radiation down to the short-wave visible part of the spectrum and whose radiation sensitivity in the visible part of the spectrum can be expanded by adding one or more sensitizing dyes which transmit longer-wave energy to transmit the energy Are capable of light on the photoconductor.
- sensitizing dyes which transmit longer-wave energy to transmit the energy Are capable of light on the photoconductor. This includes dyes from a wide variety of compound classes.
- panchromatic sensitizations have advantages in that the light sources used in reproduction technology with a high proportion of red are better used. In practice, this means shorter exposure times and thus time and energy savings. Because of the improved sensitivity, it is also possible to reduce the proportion of photoconductor in the photoconductive layer.
- sensitizer Since a sensitizer usually does not cover the entire visible area of the spectrum, it is necessary to mix several sensitizers. However, it is very difficult to obtain sensitizations that meet the diverse needs of reproductive technology.
- DE-A 21 37 325 discloses an electrophotographic recording material which contains at least one cyanine dye. It is also specified which one Cyanine dye must be selected if sensitization is required for blue, green or red light. However, this does not result in panchromatic sensitization of electrophotographic recording material with organic or inorganic photoconductor.
- the present invention was based on the object of sensitizing electrophotographic recording material with organic or inorganic photoconductor in such a way that sensitization from the area of intrinsic sensitivity of the photoconductor to over approximately 700 nm is obtained, the individual sensitizations overlapping as much as possible so that the resulting sensitization of the emission corresponds to a light source emitting in the entire visible region, such as an Hg-Ga burner.
- the sensitization should be such that sensitization maxima are present which are in the area of the emission of conventional lasers, such as argon ion lasers, krypton lasers or LED diodes. It was also an object of the invention to use a mixture of dyes which are derived from the same heterocycle for reasons of compatibility.
- the solution to the problem is based on an electrophotographic recording material consisting of an electrically conductive support and at least one photoconductive layer containing photoconductor, sensitizing dye of the 3,3'-dimethylindolenine type, Binder and usual additives.
- sensitizing dyes two of which are bis (3,3'-dimethylindolenyl) tri and pentamethine cyanines, which sensitize in different wavelengths, and in addition that a cyanine dye from the group Astrazonorange R (CI 48040), Astrazon Orange G (CI 48035), Astrazon Yellow 3G (CI 48055), Astrazon Yellow 5G (CI 48065) and Basic Yellow 52115 (CI 48060) or a bis-benzoxazole trimethine cyanine is present.

- sensitizing dyes have different effects for different types of photoconductors. Therefore, when using inorganic photoconductor such as zinc oxide, bis-benzoxazole trimethine cyanine is alternatively used in the photoconductive layer (formula 4). Compounds of this type are in the unpublished DE-A 34 05 487 proposed as a sensitizing dye.
- the selection and mixing ratio of the dyes according to the invention ensure that various organic or inorganic photoconductors can be sensitized well in a range from about 400 to 700 nm.
- the spectral sensitizing dye according to formula No. 1 used according to the invention is characterized by intensive sensitization in red with a sensitization maximum at 670 nm and a shoulder at 640 nm. For example, it is more intense and sensitizes longer-wave than the commonly used brilliant green, as can be seen from the attached FIG. 2.
- sensitizing dye according to formula No. 2 used in admixture with sensitizing dye No. 1 sensitizes in the green with a sensitizing maximum at 560 nm and a shoulder at approx. 500 nm.
- Figure 3 shows the spectral sensitization by dye according to formula 2.
- the sensitizing dye according to formula No. 3 sensitizes in blue with a maximum around 500 nm, as can be seen from the attached FIG. 1.
- the sensitization characteristics can generally be found in the spectrograms attached in FIGS. 1 to 3.
- 1 shows the sensitization characteristic in the range from 400 to about 700 nm by mixing three different dyes for organic photoconductors (mixture of the dyes according to formula 1 + 2 + 3) or ZnO photoconductors (mixture of the dyes according to formula 1 + 2 + 4) at.
- the sensitizing dyes 1, 2 and 4 according to the invention are prepared by the procedures customary in the chemistry of cyanine dyes and known to the person skilled in the art. (W. Koenig, B. 57, 685 (1924), DE-PS 410.487, A. Claisen, B. 36, 3667 (1903)).
- the concentration of the sensitizing dyes according to the invention depends on the photoconductor used in the individual case, the desired effect and on the sensitizing dyes used themselves. Usually 0.05 to 1.0 percent by weight of individual dyes, based on the weight of the photoconductor, are added.
- the effect of the sensitizing dye according to formula No. 1 can be increased by changing the mixing ratio from, for example, 1: 1: 1 to 0.5: 1: 1 for the sensitizing dyes 1, 2 and 4.
- the photoconductive layer can be in either a single or a multiple layer arrangement, with charge carrier generation and charge transport taking place together or separately.
- Both organic and inorganic compounds can be used as photoconductors.
- Monomers such as polymeric aromatic carbocyclic or heterocyclic compounds may be mentioned as organic photoconductors.

- suitable polymeric compounds are vinylaromatic polymers, such as polyvinylanthracene, polyacenaphthylene or copolymers.
- Poly-N-vinylcarbazole or copolymers of N-vinylcarbazole with an N-vinylcarbazole content of at least about 40 percent by weight have proven particularly useful.
- polyester resins such as mixed polyesters of iso- and terephthalic acid with glycol, or silicone resins, such as three-dimensionally crosslinked phenylmethylsiloxanes, or so-called reaction resins, as are known under the name DD lacquers, are suitable.
- Polycarbonate resins can also be used well.
- Binders which are soluble in aqueous or alcoholic solvent systems, optionally with the addition of acid or alkali, are particularly suitable for the preferred use of the recording material according to the invention for the production of printing forms. Suitable According to this, binders are high-molecular substances which carry alkali-solubilizing groups, such as acid anhydride, carboxyl, phenol, sulfonic acid, sulfonamide or sulfonimide groups. Copolymers with anhydride groups can be used with particularly good success, since the lack of free acid groups means that the dark conductivity of the photoconductive layer is low despite good alkali solubility.

Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein elektrophotographisches Aufzeichnungsmaterial, bestehend aus einem elektrisch leitenden Schichtträger und mindestens einer photoleitfähigen Schicht, enthaltend Photoleiter, Sensibilisierungsfarbstoffe, Bindemittel und übliche Zusätze.The present invention relates to an electrophotographic recording material consisting of an electrically conductive support and at least one photoconductive layer containing photoconductors, sensitizing dyes, binders and conventional additives.
Es ist bekannt, für die elektrophotographische Reproduktion Photoleiter zu verwenden, die bis in den kurzwelligen sichtbaren Teil des Spektrums strahlungsempfindlich sind und deren Strahlungsempfindlichkeit im sichtbaren Teil des Spektrums dadurch erweitert werden kann, daß man einen oder mehrere Sensibilisierungsfarbstoffe zusetzt, die zur Übertragung der Energie längerwelligen Lichtes auf den Photoleiter befähigt sind. Hierzu gehören Farbstoffe der verschiedensten Verbindungsklassen.It is known to use photoconductors for electrophotographic reproduction which are sensitive to radiation down to the short-wave visible part of the spectrum and whose radiation sensitivity in the visible part of the spectrum can be expanded by adding one or more sensitizing dyes which transmit longer-wave energy to transmit the energy Are capable of light on the photoconductor. This includes dyes from a wide variety of compound classes.
Es ist bekannt (DE-AS 25 26 720, entsprechend US-PS 4,063,948), für die elektrophotographische Reproduktion ein elektrophotographisches Aufzeichnungsmaterial zu verwenden, das in der photoleitfähigen Schicht einen im blauen Spektralbereich sensibilisierenden Cyaninfarbstoff enthält. Eine derartige Sensibilisierung ermöglicht es jedoch nicht, auch Strahlung im zum Beispiel grünen und roten Gebiet des Spektrums zu registrieren.It is known (DE-AS 25 26 720, corresponding to US Pat. No. 4,063,948) to use an electrophotographic recording material for electrophotographic reproduction which contains a cyanine dye sensitizing in the blue spectral range in the photoconductive layer. However, such sensitization does not make it possible to register radiation in the green and red areas of the spectrum, for example.
Es ist auch bekannt (DE-OS 14 47 907, entsprechend US-PS 3,458,310), Photoleiterschichten bis ins sichtbare Rot zu sensibilisieren. Man verwendet hierzu zum Beispiel Mischungen aus Acridingelb, Acridinorange, Rhodaminfarbstoff und Brillantgrün, die in einer oder auch getrennt in verschiedenen Schichten zugesetzt werden (DE-OS 23 53 639, entsprechend US-PS 3,992,205), wobei sich die Wirkung der Einzelfarbstoffe addiert oder auch eine davon abweichende Sensibilisierung auftritt (DE-OS 28 17 428, entsprechend US-PS 4,252,880).It is also known (DE-OS 14 47 907, corresponding to US-PS 3,458,310) to sensitize photoconductor layers to visible red. Mixtures of acridine yellow, acridine orange, rhodamine dye and brilliant green are used for this purpose, which are added in one or else separately in different layers (DE-OS 23 53 639, corresponding to US Pat. No. 3,992,205), the effect of the individual dyes adding up or else a different sensitization occurs (DE-OS 28 17 428, corresponding to US Pat. No. 4,252,880).
Derartige panchromatische Sensibilisierungen bringen insofern Vorteile, als die in der Reproduktionstechnik verwendeten Lichtquellen mit einem hohen Rotanteil besser ausgenutzt werden. Dies bedeutet für die Praxis kürzere Belichtungszeiten und damit Zeit- und Energieersparnis. Auch ist es wegen der verbesserten Empfindlichkeit möglich, den Photoleiteranteil in der photoleitfähigen Schicht herabzusetzen.Such panchromatic sensitizations have advantages in that the light sources used in reproduction technology with a high proportion of red are better used. In practice, this means shorter exposure times and thus time and energy savings. Because of the improved sensitivity, it is also possible to reduce the proportion of photoconductor in the photoconductive layer.
Da in der Regel ein Sensibilisator allein das gesamte sichtbare Gebiet des Spektrums nicht überdeckt, ist es erforderlich, mehrere Sensibilisatoren zu mischen. Es ist aber sehr schwierig, damit Sensibilisierungen zu erhalten, die den vielgestaltigen Wünschen der Reproduktionstechnik gerecht werden.Since a sensitizer usually does not cover the entire visible area of the spectrum, it is necessary to mix several sensitizers. However, it is very difficult to obtain sensitizations that meet the diverse needs of reproductive technology.
Aus DE-A 21 37 325 geht ein elektrophotographisches Aufzeichnungsmaterial hervor, das mindestens einen Cyaninfarbstoff enthält. Es ist auch angegeben, welcher Cyaninfarbstoff gewählt werden muß, wenn man für Blau-, Grün- oder Rotlicht Sensibilisierung benötigt. Eine panchromatische Sensibilisierung von elektrophotographischem Aufzeichnungsmaterial mit organischem oder auch anorganischem Photoleiter geht hieraus jedoch nicht hervor.DE-A 21 37 325 discloses an electrophotographic recording material which contains at least one cyanine dye. It is also specified which one Cyanine dye must be selected if sensitization is required for blue, green or red light. However, this does not result in panchromatic sensitization of electrophotographic recording material with organic or inorganic photoconductor.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung lag die Aufgabe zugrunde, elektrophotographisches Aufzeichnungsmaterial mit organischem oder auch anorganischem Photoleiter derart zu sensibilisieren, daß eine Sensibilisierung vom Gebiet der Eigenempfindlichkeit des Photoleiters bis über etwa 700 nm erhalten wird, wobei sich die Einzelsensibilisierungen möglichst überlappen, damit die resultierende Sensibilisierung der Emission einer im ganzen sichtbaren Gebiet emittierenden Lichtquelle, wie zum Beispiel einem Hg-Ga-Brenner, entspricht. Andererseits sollte die Sensibilisierung aber derart sein, daß Sensibilisierungsmaxima vorhanden sind, die im Gebiet der Emission von üblichen Lasern, wie Argonionenlaser, Kryptonlaser oder LED-Dioden, liegen. Es war auch Ziel der Erfindung, eine Mischung von Farbstoffen zu verwenden, die sich aus Gründen der Verträglichkeit vom gleichen Heterocyclus ableiten.The present invention was based on the object of sensitizing electrophotographic recording material with organic or inorganic photoconductor in such a way that sensitization from the area of intrinsic sensitivity of the photoconductor to over approximately 700 nm is obtained, the individual sensitizations overlapping as much as possible so that the resulting sensitization of the emission corresponds to a light source emitting in the entire visible region, such as an Hg-Ga burner. On the other hand, the sensitization should be such that sensitization maxima are present which are in the area of the emission of conventional lasers, such as argon ion lasers, krypton lasers or LED diodes. It was also an object of the invention to use a mixture of dyes which are derived from the same heterocycle for reasons of compatibility.
Die Lösung der Aufgabe geht aus von einem elektrophotographischen Aufzeichnungsmaterial bestehend aus einem elektrisch leitenden Schichtträger und mindestens einer photoleitfähigen Schicht, enthaltend Photoleiter, Sensibilisierungsfarbstoff vom 3,3'-Dimethylindolenin-Typ, Bindemittel und übliche Zusätze. Sie ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß mindestens drei Sensibilisierungsfarbstoffe vorhanden sind, von denen zwei Bis-(3,3'-dimethylindolenyl)-tri und -pentamethincyanine darstellen, die in unterschiedlichen Wellenlängen sensibilisieren, und daß zusätzlich ein Cyaninfarbstoff aus der Gruppe Astrazonorange R (C.I. 48040), Astrazonorange G (C.I. 48035), Astrazongelb 3G (C.I. 48055), Astrazongelb 5G (C.I. 48065) und Basic Yellow 52115 (C.I. 48060) oder ein Bis-benzoxazol-trimethincyanin vorhanden ist.The solution to the problem is based on an electrophotographic recording material consisting of an electrically conductive support and at least one photoconductive layer containing photoconductor, sensitizing dye of the 3,3'-dimethylindolenine type, Binder and usual additives. It is characterized in that at least three sensitizing dyes are present, two of which are bis (3,3'-dimethylindolenyl) tri and pentamethine cyanines, which sensitize in different wavelengths, and in addition that a cyanine dye from the group Astrazonorange R (CI 48040), Astrazon Orange G (CI 48035), Astrazon Yellow 3G (CI 48055), Astrazon Yellow 5G (CI 48065) and Basic Yellow 52115 (CI 48060) or a bis-benzoxazole trimethine cyanine is present.

Es hat sich gezeigt, daß die Sensibilisierungsfarbstoffe für verschiedene Photoleitertypen unterschiedlich wirksam sind. Deshalb werden bei Verwendung von anorganischem Photoleiter, wie Zinkoxid, als Sensibilisierungsfarbstoff Bis-benzoxazol-trimethincyanine alternativ in der photoleitfähigen Schicht verwendet (Formel 4). Verbindungen dieser Art sind in der nicht vorveröffentlichten DE-A 34 05 487 als Sensibilisierungsfarbstoff vorgeschlagen.It has been shown that the sensitizing dyes have different effects for different types of photoconductors. Therefore, when using inorganic photoconductor such as zinc oxide, bis-benzoxazole trimethine cyanine is alternatively used in the photoconductive layer (formula 4). Compounds of this type are in the unpublished DE-A 34 05 487 proposed as a sensitizing dye.
Durch Auswahl und Mischungsverhältnis der erfindungsgemäßen Farbstoffe wird erreicht, daß verschiedene organische oder anorganische Photoleiter in einem Bereich von etwa 400 bis 700 nm gut sensibilisiert werden können.The selection and mixing ratio of the dyes according to the invention ensure that various organic or inorganic photoconductors can be sensitized well in a range from about 400 to 700 nm.

Die Sensibilisierungscharakteristiken sind generell den in Figuren 1 bis 3 beigefügten Spektrogrammen zu entnehmen. Hierbei gibt Figur 1 die Sensibilisierungscharakteristik im Bereich von 400 bis etwa 700 nm durch Mischung dreier verschiedener Farbstoffe für organische Photoleiter (Mischung der Farbstoffe nach Formel 1 + 2 + 3) oder ZnO-Photoleiter (Mischung der Farbstoffe nach Formel 1 + 2 + 4) an.The sensitization characteristics can generally be found in the spectrograms attached in FIGS. 1 to 3. 1 shows the sensitization characteristic in the range from 400 to about 700 nm by mixing three different dyes for organic photoconductors (mixture of the dyes according to

Die Konzentration der erfindungsgemäßen Sensibilisierungsfarbstoffe hängt von dem im Einzelfall verwendeten Photoleiter, dem erwünschten Effekt und von den verwendeten Sensibilisierungsfarbstoffen selbst ab. Üblicherweise werden 0,05 bis 1,0 Gewichtsprozent Einzelfarbstoffe, bezogen auf das Gewicht des Photoleiters, zugesetzt. Man kann durch Veränderung des Mischungsverhältnisses von zum Beispiel 1:1:1 auf 0,5:1:1 für die Sensibilisierungsfarbstoffe 1, 2 und 4 die Wirkung des Sensibilisierungsfarbstoffes nach Formel Nr. 1 verstärken.The concentration of the sensitizing dyes according to the invention depends on the photoconductor used in the individual case, the desired effect and on the sensitizing dyes used themselves. Usually 0.05 to 1.0 percent by weight of individual dyes, based on the weight of the photoconductor, are added.

No. 3,180,729, or hydrazone compounds, known, for example, from DE-OS 29 19 791, corresponding to US Pat. No. 4,278,747, can also be used.
Als polymere Verbindungen sind beispielsweise vinylaromatische Polymere, wie Polyvinylanthracen, Polyacenaphthylen oder Mischpolymerisate geeignet. Ganz besonders bewährt haben sich Poly-N-vinylcarbazol oder Mischpolymerisate des N-Vinylcarbazols mit einem N-Vinylcarbazol-Gehalt von mindestens etwa 40 Gewichtsprozent.Examples of suitable polymeric compounds are vinylaromatic polymers, such as polyvinylanthracene, polyacenaphthylene or copolymers. Poly-N-vinylcarbazole or copolymers of N-vinylcarbazole with an N-vinylcarbazole content of at least about 40 percent by weight have proven particularly useful.
Als Bindemittel sind hinsichtlich der Flexibilität der Filmbildungseigenschaften und der Haftfestigkeit bekannte Natur- bzw. Kunstharze geeignet. Bei ihrer Auswahl spielen außer den filmbildenden und elektrischen Eigenschaften sowie wegen der Haftfestigkeit auf dem Schichtträger auch Löslichkeitseigenschaften eine Rolle. So sind beispielsweise Polyesterharze, wie Mischpolyester aus Iso- und Terephthalsäure mit Glykol, oder Silikonharze, wie dreidimensional vernetzte Phenylmethyl-siloxane, oder sogenannte Reaktionsharze, wie sie unter der Bezeichnung DD-Lacke bekannt sind, geeignet. Auch Polycarbonatharze sind gut einsetzbar. Zur bevorzugten Verwendung des erfindungsgemäßen Aufzeichnungsmaterials zur Herstellung von Druckformen sind solche Bindemittel besonders geeignet, die in wäßrigen oder alkoholischen Lösungsmittelsystemen, gegebenenfalls unter Säure- oder Alkalizusatz, löslich sind. Geeignete Bindemittel sind hiernach hochmolekulare Substanzen, die alkalilöslich machende Gruppen tragen, wie Säureanhydrid-, Carboxyl-, Phenol-, Sulfosäure-, Sulfonamid- oder Sulfonimidgruppen. Mischpolymerisate mit Anhydridgruppen können, mit besonders gutem Erfolg verwendet werden, da durch das Fehlen freier Säuregruppen die Dunkelleitfähigkeit der photoleitfähigen Schicht gering ist trotz guter Alkalilöslichkeit.Known natural or synthetic resins are suitable as binders with regard to the flexibility of the film-forming properties and the adhesive strength. In addition to the film-forming and electrical properties and because of the adhesive strength on the substrate, solubility properties also play a role in their selection. For example, polyester resins, such as mixed polyesters of iso- and terephthalic acid with glycol, or silicone resins, such as three-dimensionally crosslinked phenylmethylsiloxanes, or so-called reaction resins, as are known under the name DD lacquers, are suitable. Polycarbonate resins can also be used well. Binders which are soluble in aqueous or alcoholic solvent systems, optionally with the addition of acid or alkali, are particularly suitable for the preferred use of the recording material according to the invention for the production of printing forms. Suitable According to this, binders are high-molecular substances which carry alkali-solubilizing groups, such as acid anhydride, carboxyl, phenol, sulfonic acid, sulfonamide or sulfonimide groups. Copolymers with anhydride groups can be used with particularly good success, since the lack of free acid groups means that the dark conductivity of the photoconductive layer is low despite good alkali solubility.
Als anorganischer Photoleiter wird Zinkoxid vorzugsweise genannt. Die Korngröße des eingesetzten photoleitfähigen Zinkoxids beträgt etwa 0,1 bis 15 µm. Geeignete Bindemittel mit einem spezifischen Widerstand von 10⁷ bis 10¹⁴ Ω.cm sind in diesem Fall polymere oder harzartige Bindemittel oder auch Mischungen hieraus. Geeignet sind hierfür Polyurethan, Polyester, Polycarbonate, Polystyrole, chlorierter Gummi, Acrylharze, Alkydharze, Silicanharze oder Vinylacetat-Mischpolymerisate, wie Vinylchloridacetatharz.Zinc oxide is preferably mentioned as the inorganic photoconductor. The grain size of the photoconductive zinc oxide used is approximately 0.1 to 15 μm. Suitable binders with a specific resistance of 10⁷ to 10¹⁴ Ω.cm in this case are polymeric or resinous binders or mixtures thereof. Suitable for this are polyurethane, polyester, polycarbonates, polystyrenes, chlorinated rubber, acrylic resins, alkyd resins, silica resins or vinyl acetate copolymers, such as vinyl chloride acetate resin.
Die photoleitfähige Schicht mit Zinkoxid als Photoleiter kann zwischen 50 und etwa 95 Gewichtsprozent der photoleitfähigen Teilchen enthalten. Ein bevorzugtes Gewichtsverhältnis des Bindemittels zu den Teilchen liegt zwichen 1:4 und 1:10.The photoconductive layer with zinc oxide as the photoconductor can contain between 50 and about 95 percent by weight of the photoconductive particles. A preferred weight ratio of the binder to the particles is between 1: 4 and 1:10.
Die Schichtträger des Aufzeichnungsmaterials können flächig oder zylindrisch ausgebildet sein und in bekannter Weise aus einer Metallplatte, einer Metallfolie, aus metallisiertem Papier oder Papieren oder Folien, die mit einem elektrisch leitenden Kunststoff beschichtet sind, bestehen.The supports of the recording material can be flat or cylindrical and can be made in a known manner from a metal plate, a metal foil, from metallized paper or papers or foils, which are coated with an electrically conductive plastic.
Auf dem erfindungsgemäßen Aufzeichnungsmaterial können in bekannter Weise auf diesem selbst Tonerbilder erzeugt werden, es ist aber auch möglich, entweder das Ladungsbild oder Tonerbild auf ein Bildempfangsmaterial zu übertragen.In the known manner, toner images can be produced on the recording material according to the invention, but it is also possible to transfer either the charge image or the toner image to an image receiving material.
In bekannter Weise kann man auch nach Bebilderung, Entwicklung und Entschichtung der Photoleiterschicht an den Nichtbildstellen und gegebenenfalls Wegätzen der Metallschicht an den Nichtbildstellen eine Druckform oder eine gedruckte Schaltung erhalten.In a known manner, a printing form or a printed circuit can also be obtained after imaging, development and stripping of the photoconductor layer at the non-image locations and, if appropriate, etching away the metal layer at the non-image locations.
Das elektrophotographische Aufzeichnungsmaterial kann als übliche Zusätze in der photoleitfähigen Schicht Verlaufmittel und Weichmacher und/oder zwischen Schichtträger und photoleitfähiger Schicht Haftvermittler enthalten.The electrophotographic recording material can contain leveling agents and plasticizers and / or adhesion promoters as conventional additives in the photoconductive layer and / or between the support and the photoconductive layer.

Die Lösung wurde auf eine oberflächlich elektrochemisch aufgerauhte und anodisierte Aluminiumfolie aufgebracht, die auf ihrer Oberfläche, wie in DE-OS 16 21 478 (entsprechend US-PS 4,153,461) beschrieben, mit Polyvinylphosphonsäure vorbehandelt wurde. Nach dem Verdunsten des Lösungsmittels erhielt man eine im Bereich von etwa 420 bis 730 nm lichtempfindliche Schicht. Das Sensibilisierungsspektrogramm kann der beigefügten Figur 1 entnommen werden.To a solution of 8 g of 2-vinyl-4- (2'-chlorophenyl-5- (4'-diethylaminophenyl) oxazole and 18 g of a copolymer of styrene and maleic acid hydride, in a mixture of 90 g of methyl glycol, 140 g of tetrahydrofuran and 40 g of 85% butyl acetate, 0.04 g each of Sensitizing Dyes Nos. 1, 2 and 3 were added. The solution was applied to an electrochemically roughened and anodized aluminum foil, the surface of which was pretreated with polyvinylphosphonic acid as described in DE-OS 16 21 478 (corresponding to US Pat. No. 4,153,461). After the solvent had evaporated, a photosensitive layer in the range from about 420 to 730 nm was obtained. The sensitization spectrogram can be found in the attached FIG. 1.
Aus diesem Aufzeichnungsmaterial wurde auf folgende Weise eine Druckform für Offsetdruck hergestellt. Es wurde die photoleitfähige Schicht im Dunkeln mit Hilfe einer Corona auf -430 V aufgeladen, dann in einer Reprokamera bei Blende 14 acht Sekunden mit einem Hg-Ga-Brenner (5000 W M023-Sylvania) belichtet. Das entstandene latente Ladungsbild wurde mit einem handelsüblichen Trockentoner mit Hilfe einer Magnetwalze entwickelt und das Tonerbild durch Wärme fixiert. Nach Entfernen der photoleitfähigen Schicht an den nicht mit Toner bedeckten Stellen mit einer Lösung, die man dadurch erhält, daß man 50 g Na₂SiO₃ x 9 H₂O in 250 g Glycerin (86 %ig) löste und mit 390 g Ethylenglykol und 310 g Methanol verdünnte, wurde eine Flachdruckform erhalten, mit der in hoher Auflage gedruckt werden konnte.A printing plate for offset printing was produced from this recording material in the following manner. The photoconductive layer was charged to -430 V in the dark with the aid of a corona, then exposed in a repro camera at aperture 14 for eight seconds using an Hg-Ga burner (5000 W M023-Sylvania). The resulting latent charge image was developed with a commercially available dry toner using a magnetic roller and the toner image was fixed by heat. After removing the photoconductive layer at the points not covered with toner with a solution which is obtained by dissolving 50 g Na₂SiO₃ x 9 H₂O in 250 g glycerol (86%) and diluting with 390 g ethylene glycol and 310 g methanol, a planographic printing form was obtained, with which it was possible to print in large numbers.
