Abstract
This invention is directed to the reaction product of an O-epoxyalkylated tetrakis (hydroxyphenyl) alkane resin with a phenol, which is used either as an upper layer over a lower layer of a diazo resin in a bi-layer system or as a homogeneous mixture with a diazo resin in a mono-layer system to provide a water-developable, negative-working, lithographic printing plate.
Claims1
A composition comsisting of the reaction product of an O-epoxyalkylated tetrakis (hydroxyphenyl) ethane resin and sufficient substituted or unsubstituted phenol to react with all the epoxy groups, said reaction product being a group member of the formula:
- ##STR6## wherein R is ##STR7## and X is H, halogen, alkoxy containing 1 to 8 carbon atoms, alkyl containing 1 to 14 carbon atoms, aryl containing 6 to 14 carbon atoms and aralkyl containing 6 to 14 carbon atoms.
