Abstract: Slow-releasing granules which are characterized by coating the quick-releasing granules which comprise an active ingredient, polyvinyl pyrrolidone polymer and a disintegrator where the polymer distributes in high concentration on the surface area of the granules, with a polyacid enteric material to form a complex between the polyvinyl pyrrolidone polymer and the polyacid, and long lasting mixed granules which comprise the quick-releasing granules and the slow-releasing granules, thus showing increased bioavailability of the active ingredient and high stability sustained for a long period of time.

Abstract: A support for use in preparing a printing plate using a liquid photosensitive resin. The support includes a flexible self-supporting base plate and an adhesive layer thereon for applying a layer of a photosensitive resin. The adhesive layer is a layer of a cross-linked polyester-polyurethane resin formed by reacting (A) a linear polyester-polyurethane resin with (B) a polyfunctional isocyanate on the surface of the base plate.This invention relates to a flexible support for use in preparing a printing plate consisting of the support and a layer of a liquid photosensitive resin applied in situ to the support and solidified upon exposure, especially to a support including an adhesive layer for firmly bonding the solidified photosensitive resin layer to the support.
