Patent number: 7261998Abstract: The present invention provides an imageable element including a lithographic substrate and an imageable layer disposed on the substrate. The imageable layer includes a radically polymerizable component, an initiator system capable of generating radicals sufficient to initiate a polymerization reaction upon exposure to imaging radiation, and a polymeric binder having a hydrophobic backbone and including both constitutional units having a pendant cyano group attached directly to the hydrophobic backbone, and constitutional units having a pendant group including a hydrophilic poly(alkylene oxide) segment. When the imageable element is imaged and developed, the resulting printing plate may exhibit improved on-press solvent resistance and longer press life.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 2004Date of Patent: August 28, 2007Assignee: Eastman Kodak CompanyInventors: Kouji Hayashi, Heidi M. Munnelly, Ting Tao, Jianbing Huang, Shashikant Saraiya
