Abstract
Positive-working lithographic printing plate precursors have an inner layer that includes a polymeric binder having an acid number of at least 30 mg KOH/g of polymer to and including 150 mg KOH/g of polymer, at least 3 weight % of recurring units derived from one or more N-alkoxymethyl(alkyl)acrylamides or alkoxymethyl(alkyl)acrylates, at least 2 weight % of recurring units having pendant 1H-tetrazole groups, and at least 10 weight % of recurring units having pendant cyano groups. The use of such polymeric binders in the inner layer provides good bakeability and chemical solvent resistance. Such positive-working lithographic printing plate precursors also include an outer layer disposed over the inner layer, which outer layer comprises an infrared radiation absorbing compound.
