More Information
Summary:An imageable material can be used to form a mask image for providing a relief image. This imageable material has a simplified structure and consists essentially of, in order: a transparent polymeric carrier sheet and a barrier layer comprising a first infrared radiation absorbing compound. A first ultraviolet radiation absorbing compound is provided in the transparent polymeric carrier sheet or the barrier layer. A non-silver halide thermally sensitive imageable layer is disposed on the barrier layer and comprises a second infrared radiation absorbing compound and a second ultraviolet radiation absorbing compound. A relief image is formed by imaging the imageable material to form an imaged mask material, exposing a relief-forming material with curing radiation through the imaged mask material to form exposed regions and non-exposed regions, and developing the imaged relief-forming material to form a relief image by removing its non-exposed regions.
