Pressure-sensitive adhesives for bonding flexible printing plates

Abstract

A pressure-sensitive adhesive comprising at least one adhesive component comprising at least one polymer component based on a monomer mixture comprising at least one of the following monomers: at least one acrylic ester at least one methacrylic ester acrylic acid methacrylic acid is particularly suitable for the bonding of printing plates, particularly to printing cylinders and/or printing sleeves, if the pressure-sensitive adhesive further comprises 1 to 25 wt %, preferably 2 to 20 wt %, based in each case on the overall blend of the at least one adhesive component without solvent, of at least one compound selected from the group consisting of stearyl alcohol, aliphatic and aromatic dicarboxylic esters, acetylated polyols and ethoxylated fatty acid amines.
