Summary:A lithographic printing plate precursor has an infrared radiation- sensitive imageable layer that includes one or more free radically polymerizable components, an initiator composition that provides free radicals upon exposure of the infrared radiation-sensitive imageable layer to infrared radiation, one or more infrared radiation absorbers, and optionally, a polymeric binder different from the one or more free radically polymerizable components. The initiator composition comprises an iodonium tetraaryl borate that is represented by the following formula (I): wherein Ar is independently unsubstituted phenyl or naphthyl groups, or substituted phenyl or naphthyl groups each having one or more electron-donating substituents; and R is a linear or branched organic group comprising 0 to 3 oxygen atoms and 2 to 5 carbon atoms, provided that R is directly attached to the oxygen atom with one of the carbon atoms.
