Disclosed is a positive-type photosensitive composition comprising in predetermined blending proportions a substance which generates heat upon absorbing light, a resin which has phenolic hydroxyl groups and is soluble in an aqueous alkaline solution, and a copolymer comprising 10 mol % or more of at least one of acrylic derivatives having a sulfonamide group as a component for copolymerization. The above-described composition is designed for use with an infrared laser in a direct plate making process as a composition advantageous in that the problems of insufficient image forming ability and insufficient solvent resistance of the resin, which has phenolic hydroxyl groups and is soluble in an aqueous alkaline solution, are solved, and in that the range of locations where the photosensitive composition may be handled are not limited, and further in that the sensitivity of the photosensitive composition to the concentration of the developing solution is stable, i.e., there is a broad latitude in development.
A positive-type photosensitive composition for use with an infrared laser, comprising a substance which generates heat upon absorbing light, a resin which has phenolic hydroxyl groups and is soluble in an aqueous alkaline solution, and a copolymer comprising 10 mol % or more of at least one of the following items (a) to (c) as a component for copolymerization:
A positive-type image recording material for use with an infrared laser, comprising a supporting substrate having a photosensitive layer formed thereon including at least a substance which generates heat upon absorbing light, a resin which has phenolic hydroxyl groups and is soluble in an aqueous alkaline solution, and a copolymer comprising 10 mol % or more of at least one of the following items (a) to (c) as a component for copolymerization:
A positive-type planographic original plate for use with an infrared laser, comprising a supporting substrate having a photosensitive layer formed thereon including at least a substance which generates heat upon absorbing light, a resin which has phenolic hydroxyl groups and is soluble in an aqueous alkaline solution, and a copolymer comprising 10 mol % or more of at least one of the following items (a) to (c) as a component for copolymerization:
