It is also possible for a layer of the printing form to be assigned a plurality of functional zones. Two mutually at least partially different zones z. B. by their respective material composition, their respective physical and / or chemical properties, their respective dimensions, and / or by their relative positions to each other.
- Buffer zone A special function zone that fulfills the function of storing or buffering energy, in particular heat energy, and returning it to another functional zone with a time delay.
- the buffer zone absorbs the energy which is supplied to it from a first zone, preferably an absorption zone, through energy flow (eg heat flow).

- ⁇ thermal conductivity
- t coupling time
- ⁇ density
- c specific heat capacity.
- z. B. metallic area (buffer) coupled, the thickness of which is smaller than the thermal penetration depth (based on an infinitely extended buffer zone), and to a poorly thermally conductive, z. B. polymer region (insulator) adjacent, wherein the thermal penetration depth in the insulator is significantly smaller than the thickness of the buffer, so all thermal energy in the buffer is coupled with a homogeneous temperature within the buffer to a good approximation.
- the above-defined buffer zone can be advantageously designed as such a functional zone with good heat conduction, which preferably adjoins the region of conversion of the radiant energy into heat energy (or to the absorption zone), and which temporarily stores or buffers the coupled thermal energy.
- the highest possible temperature of the buffer zone is advantageous.
- reaching or exceeding a limit temperature can damage or destroy a layer structure of the printing form.

- a further embodiment of the printing form according to the invention is characterized in that the information zone, which can be changed according to image information, is designed as a zone bearing or carrying external image information.
- An embodiment of the printing form according to the invention which is alternative to the abovementioned embodiment is characterized in that the information zone, which is variable according to image information, is provided as a color layer carrying or carrying external image information.
- a particular advantage results from the fact that the irradiated energy passes through the formation of an antireflection zone largely lossless in the absorption zone and can be coupled there. Since the absorption zone cooperates according to the invention with the buffer zone, this largely lossless injected energy is rapidly transferred into the buffer zone. Damage or even destruction of the zones (and corresponding layers) by overheating can be effectively prevented in this way, even with high energy consumption.
- a particular advantage can be achieved in this way by virtue of the fact that the (for example largely lossless) coupled-in and buffered energy can be returned to the image information-carrying zone largely loss-free.
- the power of the imaging energy source eg a laser
- a further embodiment of the printing form according to the invention which is likewise possible for all the aforementioned embodiments is characterized in that at least the absorption zone and the buffer zone are formed as separate layers.
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic cross section of the layer structure or the layer sequence and the functional zones of a printing plate 100 according to the invention, which from the top with electromagnetic energy, preferably in the form of laser radiation 102 (eg. Infrared radiation in the wavelength range of 830 nanometers) is applied.
- electromagnetic energy preferably in the form of laser radiation 102 (eg. Infrared radiation in the wavelength range of 830 nanometers) is applied.
- the printing form is formed by a printing cylinder surface, it is possible to dispense with the support 118 or, in other words, the printing cylinder itself can form the support 118. This also applies correspondingly in the other embodiments.
- the information layer 110 and the absorption layer 112 together form an antireflection layer 150 or an antireflection system 150 at least for the introduced radiation, ie for the corresponding wavelength, such that the radiation penetrates into the absorption layer 112 substantially without reflection.
- the layer thicknesses and the respective refractive indices are matched to one another.
- the layer thickness of the cover layer is preferably n ⁇ / 4, where n is an odd-numbered, integer preferably greater than 5.
- the refractive index of the information layer 110 lies between the refractive index of air and the refractive index of the layer lying below the information layer 110 and is preferably the root of the refractive index of the layer located below the information layer 110.
- the functional zones of the printing form 100 are represented by lines. Like from the FIG. 1 It can be seen that the functional zones can on the one hand coincide with individual layers of the layer structure and on the other hand comprise several layers (in whole or in part). It can also be seen that individual layers can also be assigned to several functional zones.
- FIG. 1 also shows the energy flow.
- the energy 170 in the form of electromagnetic radiation 102 irradiated onto the layer structure of the printing forme 100 is lost only to a slight extent by reflection 172 (reflection loss 172), preferably less than about 20%, so that initially only this part 172 of the incident energy 170 is not lost for the reflection actual imaging process is available.
- the heat energy 190 coupled in the absorption zone 122 is lost only to a slight extent by transmission 174 (transmission loss 174) into the carrier 118, preferably less than about 5%, in particular 1%, and this part 174 of the incident energy 170 likewise does not stand available for the actual imaging process.
- the predominant portion 176 (deposited thermal energy 176) of the coupled-in thermal energy 190 is absorbed by the buffer zone 124 arranged at least partially lower than the absorption zone 122 via heat conduction 178 and as a buffered thermal energy 180 in time and spatially buffered. From the buffer zone 124, the heat energy 180 passes, with a time delay, via heat conduction 182 back into the absorption zone 122 and the information zone 120, where the heat energy is required for the actual (physical or chemical) imaging process.
- FIG. 2 shows a schematic cross section of the layer structure or the layer sequence of a further printing form 200 according to the invention, which is acted upon from above with laser radiation 202, preferably in the infrared region, for imaging.
- the information layer 110 and the absorption layer 112 together form an antireflective layer 250 or antireflective system 250 at least for the introduced radiation 202, d. H. for the corresponding wavelength, such that the radiation penetrates into the absorption layer 212 substantially without reflection.
- FIG. 3 a further embodiment of the invention for a with respect to the degree of utilization of the introduced radiation 302 optimized printing plate 300 is shown with amphiphilic molecules.
- a carrier made of sheet metal, preferably steel or aluminum sheet, wherein the sheet may preferably be provided with a polyimide layer which is about 10 or only about 5 micrometers thick (for example by gluing on) ,
- An optionally applied on the absorption layer 312, usable as an information layer and with the absorption layer 312 an antireflection layer 350 forming further layer may be exemplified as a TiO 2 layer which reduces the reflection of the incident light by destructive interference (example: refractive index of TiO 2 is 1.8, wavelength is 900 nanometers, thickness is 125 nanometers).
- titanium (Ti) its oxides or nitrides may also be present in layer 312 (or in the additional antireflective coating) zirconium (Zr), manganese (Mn), aluminum (Al), chromium (Cr), tantalum (Ta), tin (Sn), zinc (Zn) and iron (Fe), their oxides or nitrides or mixtures are used.
- a very thin buffer layer 314 may be provided, which also has the task of protecting the layer interface between the polyimide film 318 and its coating from excessive thermal stress.
- amphiphilic molecules eg, stearic phosphonic acid
- the layer 312 is also very resistant to abrasion, which benefits the stability in the printing process.
- the polyimide substrate provides effective thermal isolation so that the coupled thermal energy is used essentially to heat an area only 600 nanometers thick at the surface. As a result, reaching the Becularungstemperatur is already possible with low laser power.
- FIG. 3 In addition to the layer sequence of the printing form 300, again the functional zones are represented by lines: an information zone 320, an absorption zone 322, a buffer zone 324, an isolation zone 326, a carrier zone 328 and an antireflection zone 360
- FIG. 4 shows a further embodiment of the invention for a printing plate 400, which is based on the principle of thermal mixing and is applied during a Bericeungsreaes with laser radiation 402 corresponding to the image information.
- the polymer surface is inherently hydrophobic and can be treated by treatment with chemicals, e.g. B. with KMnO4 or by plasma or ultraviolet treatment over a large area hydrophilic, the penetration depth of such processes typically does not exceed 10 nanometers.
- the polymer is then melted, non-hydrophilized, deeper molecules and hydrophilized molecules of the treated surface mix together.
- the proportion of hydrophilized molecules on the surface is as large as their proportion in the polymer layer as a whole, d. H. at z. B. 1 nanometer hydrophilization depth and 5 microns layer thickness only 0.2 per thousand.
- the solidified polymer layer thus again has its hydrophobic character.
- the previously hydrophilized printing form can be effectively imaged, i. H. be spotwise hydrophobic by melting and thermal mixing.
- the thermal energy is conducted by conduction to the surface of the printing plate 400 (ie the polymer surface), also a larger volume (buffer layer 414 and polymer layer 410) heated, and the enthalpy of fusion must be applied, the storage of significantly more energy is necessary as in the embodiment of FIG. 3 , This fact is accommodated by a thicker buffer layer 414 in this embodiment.
- the functional zones of the printing form 400 are represented by lines: an information zone 420, an absorption zone 422, a buffer zone 424, an isolation zone 426 and a carrier zone 428.
- the invention can also be used in printing processes in which the printed image is written by laser radiation in a full-surface ink layer on the printing form.
- the initially hard ink layer is liquefied at the Becularungsticianen and by a given given solidification delay of the ink, the printed image can be transferred to a substrate.
- the printing form has a carrier layer (corresponding to 118 in FIG. 1 ), an insulating layer (corresponding to 116 in FIG. 1 ), wherein the carrier and the insulating layer may also form a unit (corresponding to 218 in FIG FIG. 2 ), and a buffer layer (corresponding to 114 in FIG FIG. 1 ) on.
- the absorption layer (corresponding to 112 in FIG. 1 ) and also the information layer (corresponding to 110 in FIG. 1 ) are formed by the applied color layer.
- the absorption layer can also be arranged below the throat level.
