Abstract

Radiation-sensitive compositions and imageable elements include a polymeric or non-polymeric component in an imageable layer, which component includes 1H-tetrazole groups. The non-polymeric components can be radically polymerizable compounds. The polymeric components can have 1H-tetrazole groups that are pendant to the backbone. The use of such components in negative- or positive-working imageable elements provides high photospeed and improved developability for providing imaged and developed elements, such as lithographic printing plates that show improved chemical resistance and run length.
