“LITOGRAPHIC PRINTING PLATE PRECURSOR AND METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION OF LITOGRAPHIC PRINTING PLATE”
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Technical Field
[001] The present disclosure relates to a precursor to a lithographic printing plate and a method of preparing a lithographic printing plate.
Background of the Technique
[002] In general, lithographic printing plates include areas of lipophilic images for receiving ink and hydrophilic areas without image for receiving wetting water during printing. Lithographic printing means methods that include allowing lithographic printing plates to have areas of lipophilic images that serve as ink receiving areas and hydrophilic areas with no image that serve as areas that receive wetting water (areas that do not receive ink) by through the repulsion property of each one between water and oil-based ink, to result in the difference in ink adhesion on the surface of the lithographic printing plates, applying ink only on the image areas and after that transferring the ink to printing sheets, such as paper, for printing.
[003] Precursor lithographic printing plate (PS plates) obtained by providing layers of lipophilic photosensitive resin (image recording layers) on hydrophilic supports have been conventionally widely used to prepare these lithographic printing plates. Such lithographic printing plates are generally obtained by exposing the lithographic printing plate precursors to original drawings such as lithographic films, allowing thereafter that portions that serve as image areas of the image recording layers to remain and the removal of other layers no image recording required with dissolving in alkaline developers

2/101 or organic solvents, thus exposing the surface of hydrophilic supports to form non-image areas.
[004] Environmental challenges in relation to waste liquids associated with wet treatments such as developing treatments have been shown with an increased interest in the global environment.
[005] In response to environmental challenges, it has been demanded to simplify or eliminate the development and / or production of plaques. A simple preparation method that is carried out is a so-called "press development" method. That is, this method corresponds to a method in which the precursor of the lithographic printing plate is exposed and then mounted on a printer without any conventional development, thus allowing an unnecessary portion of an image recording layer to be removed in the initial state of a usual printing step.
[006] Examples of a conventional lithographic printing plate precursor include a lithographic printing plate precursor described in U.S. Patent No. 2009/0047599 or in U.S. Patent No. 2013/0052582.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Technical problem
[007] A lithographic printing plate that is demanded is an excellent lithographic printing plate in terms of the number of sheets on which printing can be done by the plate (later here, also referred to here as "printing durability".).
[008] The present inventors carried out intensive studies and as a result, found that the precursor of lithographic printing plate described in US Patent No. 2009/0047599 or in US Patent No. 2013/0052582 has the problems of being insufficient in relation to printing durability of a lithographic printing plate that will be obtained and also be insufficient in relation to the

[025] As described above, the inventors have found that a conventional lithographic printing plate precursor has the problems of being insufficient in terms of the printing durability of a lithographic printing plate to be obtained and also of being insufficient in relation to the development of color over an exposed portion.
[026] The inventors also found that the use of an infrared absorber that has an acidic group, to promote the decomposition of an acid-colored former, results not only in the inferior printing durability, but also in the decomposition of a portion of the former acidic coloring even over an unexposed portion, thus causing color development to occur partially before exposure, resulting in a small difference in color after exposure and a lower color-forming ability.
[027] The inventors have carried out intensive studies and as a result, the above configuration can be adopted to thus provide a precursor of lithographic printing plate that allows to obtain a lithographic printing plate that is excellent in relation to printing durability and that it excels in color-forming ability.
[028] The details of the mechanism through which the effect is obtained are not clear, but are estimated as follows.
Petition 870190108854, of 10/25/2019, p. 11/198
10/101
[029] It is estimated that since the compound represented by Formula 1 has a -X group that removes specific electrons that is not an acidic group, in a specified position, the HOMO (highest molecular orbital occupied) of the compound represented by Formula 1 is reduced when compared to a compound that does not have -X at a specified position, resulting in a reduced difference between the HOMO of the compound represented by Formula 1 and the HOMO of at least one polymerization initiator compound.
[030] It is estimated that the use of the compound represented by Formula 1 that has a -X group that removes specific electrons at a specified position in combination with the polymerization initiator allows the transfer of electrons from the polymerization initiator to the compound represented by Formula 1 occurs on exposure and the decomposition of the polymerization initiator allows an acid or the like to be generated, thus resulting in an increased rate of decomposition in the exposure of the acid stain former and excellent color forming ability. It is also estimated that the polymerization initiator includes an electron donating polymerization initiator and an electron receiving polymerization initiator and the compound represented by Formula 1, a polymerizable compound and an acid staining former are contained, thus resulting in a greater increase in print durability.

cBase Coating Layer>
[0234] The precursor of the lithographic printing plate according to the disclosure preferably includes a base coat layer (sometimes referred to as an "intermediate layer") between the image recording layer and the support. The base coat layer allows the adhesion between the support and the image recording layer to be enhanced on an exposed portion and allows the flaking of the image recording layer on the support to occur easily in an unexposed portion and thus contributes to an improvement in developing capabilities without any durability of
Petition 870190108854, of 10/25/2019, p. 75/118
66/101 impression is decreased. The base coating layer also serves as a heat insulating layer on the infrared laser exposure and thus has an effect of preventing a reduction in sensitivity due to the diffusion of heat generated by the exposure, into the support.
[0235] Examples of the compound for use in the base coat layer include a polymer that has an adsorbable group that can be adsorbed on the surface of the support and a hydrophilic group. A polymer that has an adsorbable group and a hydrophilic group and that additionally has a crosslinkable group is preferable for an increase in adhesiveness to the image recording layer. The compound for use in the base coating layer can be a low molecular weight compound or polymer. The compound for use in the base coating layer can, if necessary, be mixed with two or more types of the same.
[0236] In a case where the compound for use in the base coating layer is a polymer, a monomer copolymer that has an adsorbable group, a monomer that has a hydrophilic group and a monomer that has a crosslinkable group is preferable .
[0237] The adsorbable group that can be adsorbed on the support surface is preferably a phenolic hydroxy group, a carboxy group, -PO3H2, -OPO3H2, -CONHSO2-, -SO2NHSO2- or -COCH2COCH3.

[0238] The polymer may have a crosslinkable group introduced by the formation of salt of a polar substituent on the polymer and a compound that has a substituent that has a charge opposite to that of the polar substituent and an ethylenically unsaturated bond or may be one in which any other monomer other than the previous 0,

A low molecular weight or polymeric compound that preferably has a crosslinkable group (preferably an ethylenically unsaturated bonding group), a functional group that interacts with the support surface and a hydrophilic group, described in JP-A No. 2005, is also preferably used. -238816, JP-A No.
2005-125749, JP-A No. 2006-239867 and JP-A No. 2006-215263.
[0240] More preferably, a polymer is exemplified that has an adsorbable group that can be adsorbed on the support surface, a hydrophilic group and a crosslinkable group, described in JP-A No. 2005-125749 and JP-A No.
2006-188038.
[0241] The content of the ethylenically unsaturated bond in the polymer for use in the base coating layer is preferably 0.1 mmol to 10.0 mmol, more preferably 0.2 mmol to 5.5 mmol per gram of the polymer.
[0242] The average molecular weight (Mw) of the polymer for use in the base coating layer is preferably 5,000 or more, more preferably 10,000 to 300,000.
[0243] The base coating layer may contain a chelator, secondary or tertiary amine, a polymerization inhibitor or a compound that has not only an amino group or a functional group that has the ability to inhibit polymerization, but also a group that interacts with the surface of the support (for example, 1,4-diazabicyclo [2.2.2] octane (DABCO), 2,3,5,6-tetrahydroxy-p-quinone, chloranil, sulfophthalic acid, hydroxyethylethylenediaminetriacetic acid, dihydroxyethylethylenediamine diacetic or hydroxyethyliminodiacetic acid), other than
Petition 870190108854, of 10/25/2019, p. 77/118
68/101 compound for the base coat layer, to prevent staining caused by aging.
[0244] The base coat layer is applied according to a known method. The amount (solids content) of coating of the base coating layer is preferably 0.1 mg / m 2 to 100 mg / m 2 , more preferably 1 mg / m 2 to 30 mg / m 2 .
cProtective layer>
[0245] The precursor to the lithographic printing plate according to the disclosure preferably includes a protective layer (sometimes referred to as a “cover layer”.) Over the image recording layer. The protective layer not only has the function of suppressing an image inhibition reaction caused by oxygen blocking, but also the function of preventing the image recording layer from being scratched and the function of preventing ablation on exposure to laser with high illumination intensity.
[0246] The protective layer that has such properties is described, for example, in U.S. Patent No. 3,458,311 and JP-B No. S55-49729. Either a water-soluble polymer or a water-insoluble polymer can be appropriately selected and used as a low oxygen permeation polymer for use in the protective layer and can, if necessary, be used as a mixture of two or more types of same. Specific examples include polyvinyl alcohol, modified polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, a water-soluble cellulose derivative and poly (meth) acrylonitrile.
[0247] An acid-modified polyvinyl alcohol that has a carboxy group or a sulfo group is preferably used as the modified polyvinyl alcohol. Specific examples include modified polyvinyl alcohol described in JP-A No. 2005-250216 and JP-A No. 2006-259137.
[0248] The protective layer preferably contains a compound with
Petition 870190108854, of 10/25/2019, p. 78/118
69/101 inorganic layer in order to improve the oxygen blocking properties. The compound with an inorganic layer is a particle that has a thin plate shape and examples include a group of mica such as natural mica or synthetic mica, talc represented by Formula 3MgO4SiOH20, taeniolite, montmorillonite, saponite, hectorite and zirconium phosphate.
[0249] A compound with an inorganic layer preferably used is a mica compound. Examples of the mica compound include a mica group such as natural mica or synthetic mica represented by Formula A (B, C) 2-sD40io (OH, F, 0) 2 [where A represents any of K, Na or Ca, B and C each represent any of Fe (II), Fe (III), Μη, Al, Mg or V and D represents any of Si or Al.].
[0250] Examples of the mica group, for example, natural mica include white mica, soda mica, golden mica, black mica and scale mica. Examples of synthetic mica include non-swellable mica such as fluorinated golden mica KMg3 (AISÍ30io) F2 or potassium tetrasilicon mica (KMg2, sSÍ40io) F2 and intumescible mica such as NaMg2 sodium tetrasilicon mica, s (SiSyolite) F2, Na or Li (Na, Li) Mg2 Li (Silicon) F2 or Na or Li hectorite of the type montmorillonite (Na, Li) i / sMg2 / 5 Lii / s (Silicon) F2. In addition, synthetic smectite is also useful.
[0251] Fluorine-based swelling mica is particularly useful among the mica compounds described above. This means that the intumescible synthetic mica has a stacked structure made up of a unitary crystal lattice layer that has a thickness of 10 Å to 15 Å (1 Å = 0.1 nm) and is noticeably greater in replacing the metal atom interlaced than another clay mineral. As a result, a lattice layer is made insufficient in relation to the positive cause and a positive ion such as Li + , Na + , Ca 2+ or Mg 2+ to compensate for such a charge is adsorbed between the layers. Such a positive ion placed between the layers is called an exchangeable positive ion and can be exchanged for
Petition 870190108854, of 10/25/2019, p. 79/118
70/101 any one of several positive ions. In particular, in a case where the positive ion between the layers is Li + or Na + , whose ion radius is small, thereby causing a weak bond between the layered crystal lattices, resulting in significant swelling caused by water. A shear force is applied in this state in order to easily allow diving, resulting in the formation of a stable sun in water. Intumescent synthetic mica tends to behave in this way enormously and is thus particularly preferred.
[0252] The mica compound most preferably has a thinner shape in relation to the thickness from the point of view of the control of dysfusion and more preferably has a flat surface larger in size as long as the uniformity of a coated surface or the permeability of the rays actinic is not readjusted. Consequently, the aspect ratio is preferably 20 or more, more preferably 100 or more, particularly preferably 200 or more. The aspect ratio means the proportion of the longest size to the thickness of the particle and can be measured, for example, based on a projection view with a micrograph of the particle. A greater aspect ratio gives a greater effect obtained.
[0253] The particle size of the mica compound is preferably from 0.3 pm to 20 pm, more preferably from 0.5 pm to 10 pm, particularly preferably from 1 pm to 5 pm in terms of the average longest size. The average particle thickness is preferably 0.1 pm or less, more preferably 0.05 pm or less, particularly preferably 0.01 pm or less. Specifically, for example, swellable synthetic mica as a representative compound has a thickness of approximately 1 nm to 50 nm and a surface size (larger size) of approximately 1 pm to 20 pm in a preferable aspect.
Petition 870190108854, of 10/25/2019, p. 80/118
71/101
[0254] The content of the compound with inorganic layer is preferably from 1% by weight to 60% by weight, more preferably from 3% by weight to 50% by weight in relation to the total solids content of the protective layer. Even in the case of use in combination with a large number of compounds with inorganic layers, the total amount of the compounds with inorganic layers preferably corresponds to the above content. Such a range allows an improvement in the oxygen blocking properties, through which a favorable sensitivity is obtained. Deterioration in paint application properties can also be prevented.
[0255] The protective layer may contain additive (s) known such as a plasticizer to provide flexibility, a surfactant for an improvement in coating capacity and / or an inorganic particle to control the sliding ability of the surface. The protective layer may contain the oil sensitizing agent described in relation to the image recording layer.
[0256] The protective layer is applied according to a known method. The amount (solids content) of coating of the protective layer is preferably from 0.01 g / m 2 to 10 g / m 2 , more preferably from 0.02 g / m 2 to 3 g / m 2 , particularly preferably from 0 , 02 g / m 2 to 1 g / m 2 .

[0257] The precursor of the lithographic printing plate according to the disclosure can be prepared by performing the image exposure and a developing treatment.
[0258] The method of preparing a lithographic printing plate according to the disclosure preferably includes a step of exposing the lithographic printing plate precursor to the image according to the disclosure, thus forming an exposed portion and an unexposed portion ( later here, also referred to here as “exposure stage”.) and a

72/101 at least one of printing ink or moistening water, thereby removing the unexposed portion (later here, also referred to here as “press development stage”.) In the order listed.
[0259] The method of preparing a lithographic printing plate according to the disclosure preferably includes a step of exposing the lithographic printing plate precursor to the image according to the disclosure, which includes the polymerization initiator and the polymerizable compound, by laser and a step of removing an unexposed portion of the image recording layer by developer in a bath that has a pH of 2 to 11.
[0260] Subsequently here, preferable aspects of respective steps in the method of preparing a lithographic printing plate according to the disclosure and in the lithographic printing method according to the disclosure will be described sequentially. The lithographic printing plate precursor according to the disclosure can also be developed by a developer.
<Exposure Stage>
[0261] The method of preparing a lithographic printing plate according to the disclosure preferably includes a step of exposing the lithographic printing plate precursor to the image according to the disclosure, thus forming an exposed portion and an unexposed portion. The precursor of the lithographic printing plate according to the disclosure is preferably exposed by laser to an original transparent design that has an image of lines, an image of halftone dots and similar or exposed to the image by scanning laser beams or similar with digital data.
[0262] The wavelength of a light source, preferably used, is 750 nm to 1,400 nm. A light source from 750 nm to 1,400 nm is suitably a solid-state laser or a semiconductor laser that emits infrared rays. The infrared laser preferably has a power of 100
Petition 870190108854, of 10/25/2019, p. 82/118
73/101 mW or more, it is preferably applied over an exposure time per pixel of 20 microseconds or less and is preferably applied in an amount of irradiated energy, from 10 mJ / cm 2 to 300 mJ / cm 2 . A multi-beam laser device is preferably used to reduce the exposure time. The exposure mechanism can be any of an inner surface drum system, an outer surface drum system or a flat head system, for example.
[0263] Exposure to the image can be carried out using a plate setter (plate printer) or similar according to a common method. In the case of developing on the press, exposure to the image can be performed on a printer after the precursor of the lithographic printing plate is mounted on a printer.
<Development stage in the press>
[0264] The method of preparing a lithographic printing plate according to the disclosure preferably includes a stage of developing at least one printing ink or moistening water in the printing press and removing the unexposed portion.
[0265] The method of preparing a lithographic printing plate according to the disclosure can be carried out according to a method in which the development is done by a developer (developer treatment method).
[0266] Later here, a method of developing on the press will be described.
-Development method in the press [0267] A method of development in the press preferably allows a precursor of lithographic printing plate that has been exposed to the image to be used in this way to prepare a lithographic printing plate by feeding oil-based ink and an aqueous component on a printer and removing the layer that forms an image in an area that is not
Petition 870190108854, of 10/25/2019, p. 83/118
74/101 image.
[0268] This means that, a lithographic printing plate precursor is exposed to the image and then mounted on a printer as it is without any developing treatment carried out or a lithographic printing plate precursor is mounted on a printer and then exposed to image on the printer and thereafter an oil-based ink and an aqueous component are fed for printing, in which an uncured image-forming layer is dissolved or dispersed in either or both the oil-based ink and the component water-fed, in an area that is not imaging and thus removed, in the initial stage during printing and a hydrophilic surface is exposed over the area. In this regard, an image-forming layer cured by exposure forms an area that receives oil-based paint that has a lipophilic surface in an exposed portion. Although the oil-based paint or the aqueous component can be fed first onto the surface of a plate, the oil-based paint is preferably fed first from the point of view of preventing contamination caused by any component of the layer that forms the image of the which the aqueous component is removed. Thus, the precursor of the lithographic printing plate is submitted to the development in the press in a printer and is used as it is in the printing of several sheets. The oil-based ink and aqueous component properly used are printing ink and general wetting water for lithographic printing, respectively.
[0269] The wavelength of a light source for use as a laser for exposing the lithographic printing plate precursor to the image according to the disclosure, including the polymerization initiator and the polymerizable compound, is preferably from 300 nm to 450 nm or 750 nm to 1,400 nm. In the case of a light source from 300 nm to 450 nm, a precursor to a lithographic printing plate containing a sensitization dye that has a
Petition 870190108854, of 10/25/2019, p. 84/118
75/101 maximum absorption in the wavelength region, in an image recording layer, is preferably used and the light source above is preferably used for a light source from 750 to 1,400 nm. The light source from 300 nm to 450 nm is suitably a semiconductor laser.
[0270] The developer of a bath having a pH of 2 to 11, which can be used, is a known developer and examples include a developer having a pH of 2 to 11, which contains at least one of a surfactant or a water-soluble polymeric compound. Conventional developing treatment with a strongly alkaline developer has been necessary to include removing a protective layer in a prewash step with water, thereafter alkaline developing, removing the alkaline reagent by washing with water in a post-wash step washing with water, a treatment with liquid gum and drying in a withdrawal stage. The developer containing a surfactant or a water-soluble polymeric compound can be used to carry out both the development and treatment with liquid gum at the same time. Consequently, no post-wash step with water is particularly necessary and the development and treatment with liquid gum can be carried out with a liquid and, after that, a drying step can be carried out. In addition, no prewashing steps with water are also particularly necessary because the removal of a protective layer can also be carried out at the same time as the development and treatment with liquid gum. Drying is preferably carried out after such developing treatment and then removing excess developer by using a compression roller or the like.
<Printing step>
[0271] The method of lithographic printing according to the disclosure includes a printing step of printing ink supply to the lithographic printing plate submitted to the development on the press in the development stage on the press,
Petition 870190108854, of 10/25/2019, p. 85/118
76/101 thus printing on a recording medium.
[0272] The printing ink is not particularly limited and any of several known inks can be used when appropriate. Examples of printing ink preferably include oil-based ink or UV curable ink (UV ink) and most preferably include UV ink.
[0273] The wetting water can be fed, if necessary, during the printing step.
[0274] The printing step can be carried out successively to the development stage on the press without stopping the printer.
[0275] The recording medium is not particularly limited and a known recording medium can be used when appropriate.
[0276] The method of preparing a lithographic printing plate from the precursor of lithographic printing plate according to the disclosure and the method of lithographic printing according to the disclosure may include, if necessary, heating the entire surface of the precursor of lithographic printing plate before exposure, at exposure or between exposure and development. Such heating can allow an image formation reaction to be promoted in the image forming layer, resulting in the advantages of improvements in the sensitivity and durability of printing and in the stabilization of sensitization, for example. Heating prior to development is preferably carried out in a mild condition of 150 ° C or less. The appearance may allow, for example, the prevention of the problem of curing an area that is not an image. Heating after development is preferably carried out in an extremely strong condition in a range of preferably 100 ° C to 500 ° C. Such a strip may allow sufficient image reinforcement action to be obtained, resulting in the suppression of problems of deterioration of the support and thermal decomposition of the image area.

78/101
25% by mass at 45 ° C for 9 seconds and so carved, washed with water, thereafter additionally immersed in an aqueous solution of 20% by weight nitric acid at 60 ° C for 20 seconds and washed with water. The etching amount of the granulated surface was approximately 3 g / m 2 .
[0281] Next, an electrochemical treatment of surface crunch was performed continuously using an AC voltage of 60 Hz. An electrolyte was a 1% by weight aqueous solution of nitric acid (containing 0.5% by weight of an aluminum ion) and its temperature was 50 ° C. The AC power supply used was a used was a AC with a trapezoidal rectangular waveform that has a TP time until the current value reaches a peak starting from zero, 0.8 ms and that has a duty cycle of 1: 1 and the electrochemical treatment of surface crimping was carried out with a carbon electrode as a counter electrode. Aferrite was used as an auxiliary anode. The current density was 30 A / dm 2 as the maximum current value and 5% of the current was allowed to flow separately from the power source into an auxiliary anode. The electrical amount in electrolysis with nitric acid was an electrical amount of 175 C / dm 2 at the time of anodizing the aluminum plate. After that, the resultant was washed with water spray.
[0282] Subsequently, the electrochemical treatment of surface crimping was carried out according to the same method as that for electrolysis with nitric acid under conditions of a 0.5% by weight aqueous hydrochloric acid solution (containing 0.5% in mass of an aluminum ion) at a temperature of 50 ° C, as an electrolyte and an electrical amount of 50 C / dm 2 at the time of anodizing the aluminum plate and after that the resultant was washed with water spray.

79/101 mass (containing 0.5 mass% of an aluminum ion) as an electrolyte at a current density of 15A / dm 2 and thereafter washed with water and dried, thus producing a support A. The average size of the pore (average pore size on the surface) on the surface layer of the anodized film was 10 nm.
[0284] The pore size on the surface layer of the anodized film was measured according to a method that includes surface absorption at an increase of 150,000 at a relatively low acceleration voltage of 12 V with an ultra high resolution SEM (Hitachi S-900) without any vapor deposition treatment to check conductivity and randomly extract 50 pores and determine the average value. The standard deviation error was within ± 10%.
[0285] Thereafter, support A was subjected to a silicate treatment with 2.5% by weight aqueous sodium silicate No. 3 solution at 60 ° C for 10 seconds to ensure the hydrophilicity of an area that does not is imaged and after that washed with water, thus producing a support B. The amount of bound Si was 10 mg / m 2 . The average roughness in the center line (Ra) of support B was measured with a needle that had a diameter of 2 pm and was 0.51 pm.
[0286] A support C was prepared according to the production method as in support A except that the electrolyte in the formation of the anodized film with DC was exchanged for an aqueous solution of 22% by weight phosphoric acid in the preparation of the support A. The average pore size (average pore size on the surface) on the surface layer of the anodized film was measured according to the same method and was 25 nm.
[0287] Thereafter, support C was subjected to a silicate treatment with 2.5% by weight aqueous sodium silicate solution No. 3 at 60 ° C for 10 seconds to ensure the hydrophilicity of an area that did not is imaging, thus producing a support D. The amount of bound Si was 10 mg / m 2 . The average roughness in the center line (Ra) of support D was measured with a needle that

The aspect ratio of the resulting dispersed particle was 100 or more.
2. Preparation of the Lithographic Printing Plate Precursor B
[0319] Each lithographic printing plate precursor B for Examples 9 to 33 and Comparative Examples 5 to 14 was prepared in the same way as in Preparation of lithographic printing plate precursor A except that no coating was carried out. of any protective layer in Preparation of precursor of lithographic printing plate A.
[0320] The support used in the preparation of each lithographic printing plate precursor and the compound represented by Formula 1 or the comparative compound in the coating solution (1) for an image recording layer are described collectively in Table 2 and Table 3.
3. Evaluation of the Lithographic Printing Plate Precursor
[0321] Each precursor to the lithographic printing plate described above was evaluated for color-forming ability, developing ability on the press, printing durability and aging stability, as follows. The results of the evaluation are shown in Table 1 to Table 3.
(l) Color Formation Capacity
[0322] The precursor to the lithographic printing plate was exposed under conditions of 11.5 W power, a surface drum rotation speed
Petition 870190108854, of 10/25/2019, p. 102/118
93/101 external 220 rpm and a resolution of 2,400 dpi (dot per inch, 1 inch = 25.4 mm) with Trendsetter 3244VX (produced by Creo Co., Ltd.) equipped with a 40W infrared semiconductor laser with system cooling with water. The exposure was carried out in an environment of 25 ° C and 50% relative humidity.
[0323] The color development of the lithographic printing plate precursor was measured immediately after exposure and after storage in a dark place (25 ° C) for 2 hours after exposure. The measurement was performed on a SCE (Specular Component Exclude) system with Spectro Colorimeter CM 2600d and CM-S100W operating software produced by KONICA MINOLTA JAPAN, INC. The color-forming ability was assessed using the L * (brightness) value of the L'a'b * color coordinate system according to the AL difference between the L * value of an exposed portion and the L value * of an unexposed portion. A higher AL value means excellent color-forming ability.
(2) Developing Capacity in the Press
[0324] The precursor of lithographic printing plate was exposed by Luxei PLATESETTER T-6000III produced by FUJIFILM Corporation, equipped with an infrared semiconductor laser, under conditions of an external surface drum rotation speed of 750 rpm, a laser power 70% and a resolution of 2,400 dpi. The exposed image included a solid image and halftone dot at 50% of the 20-pm-dot FM screen.
[0325] The exposed lithographic printing plate precursor was mounted on a plate cylinder of a LITHRONE 26 printer produced by Komori Corporation, without any developing treatment, Ecolity-2 wetting water (produced by FUJIFILM Corporation) / water from tap = 2/98 (volume ratio) and solid ink Values-G (N) (produced by DIC Graphics Corporation) were used, the wetting water and ink were fed according to a standard automatic printing method of LITHRONE 26 and the impression was
Petition 870190108854, of 10/25/2019, p. 103/118
94/101 made on Tokubishi Art paper (76.5 kg) (produced by Mitsubishi Paper Mills Limited) for 100 sheets at a print speed of 10,000 sheets per hour.
[0326] The number of sheets required to complete the development on the press of the unexposed portion of the image recording layer on the printer and no transfer of any ink to the non-image area has been determined and evaluated as the developing capacity on the press. A smaller number of sheets means developing capacity in the most favorable press.
(3) Print Durability for Oil Based Ink
[0327] After the developing capacity on the press has been evaluated, printing has been continued further. The density of the ink on a print has been reduced because of the gradual wear of the image recording layer according to an increase in the number of printed sheets. The number of sheets printed up to the halftone dot area rate of a 50% halftone dot of an FM screen on the print, which is measured with a Gretag densitometer (produced by the GretagMacbeth Company), has been reduced by 5 % as compared to that rate measured at 100 that the printed sheet was determined. Print durability was assessed with the relative print durability in which a number of printed sheets, 50000, was set to 100. A higher numeric value means more favorable print durability.
[0328] Relative print durability = (Number of sheets printed with the target lithographic printing plate precursor) / 50,000 χ 100 (4) Print Durability for UV Curable Ink (UV ink)
[0329] The precursor of lithographic printing plate was exposed by Luxei PLATESETTER T-6000III produced by FUJIFILM Corporation, equipped with an infrared semiconductor laser, under conditions of an external surface drum rotation speed of 750 rpm, a laser power 70% and a resolution of 2,400 dpi. The exposed image included a solid image and

95/101 halftone at 50% of the 20-pm-dot FM screen.
[0330] The resulting exposed plate precursor was mounted on a cylinder of an SX-74 printer produced by Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG, which has a Kikuban size of (636 mm x 939 mm), without any developing treatment. A moistening water circulation tank with a volume of 100 L was connected to the printer, inside which a non-woven filter and temperature control equipment were built. Standard equipment was loaded with 80 L of wetting water including 2.0% wetting water S-Z1 (produced by FUJIFILM Corporation), T&K UV OFS K-HS solid ink GE-M (produced by T&K TOKA Corporation) used as the printing ink and the wetting water and ink were fed according to a standard automatic printing start method and after that printing was performed on Tokubishi Art paper (76.5 kg) at a printing speed of 10,000 sheets per hour.
[0331] The density of the ink on a print has been reduced because of the gradual wear of the image recording layer as the number of printed sheets has increased. The number of sheets printed up to the halftone dot area rate of a halftone dot at 50% of an FM screen on the print, which is measured with a Gretag densitometer, has been reduced by 5% when compared to such a measured rate in the printed sheet 100 that has been determined. Print durability was assessed with the relative print durability in which a number of printed sheets, 50000, was set to 100. A higher numeric value means more favorable print durability.
