Abstract: A photosensitive material comprises a photosensitive layer and a polymerizable layer which are laminated. An area of the polymerizable layer, corresponding to an unexposed area of the photosensitive layer, is polymerized when the photosensitive material is exposed to light with a wavelength of 400 to 900 nm and heated to 60.degree. to 80.degree. C.

Abstract: A printing process using an ink which is substantially non-adhesive but can be imparted with an adhesiveness when subjected to a pH change. In the printing process, the ink is subjected to a pH change to be provided with an adhesiveness to a desired depth, and the resultant adhesive ink is supplied to a printing plate having a pattern of ink receptibility to form thereon an ink pattern corresponding to the ink receptibility pattern. The ink pattern is then transferred to a transfer-receiving medium such as plain paper to form thereon a recorded image. In the above-mentioned printing process, a uniform thin ink layer can be supplied to the printing plate by chemically regulating the amount of the ink to be supplied.

Abstract: An information recording medium comprises a pair of substrates provided on at least one substrate thereof with a recording layer containing an organic coloring matter, and stuck together by use of an adhesive in such a manner that the substrates may be disposed with the interposition of a space, wherein said substrates of the information recording medium are stuck together by use of an adhesive containing an epoxy monomer and a compound capable of generating a Lewis acid by irradiation with light, and a process for producing the information recording medium.

Abstract: An optical recording medium comprises at least one of polymethine type dyes represented by the formulae [1-I] through [2-IV] shown below, and a compound selected from an aminium salt compound and a diimonium salt compound in a recording layer.

Abstract: An optical recording medium has a space therein and is prepared such that a pair of substrates are partially adhered by an adhesive obtained by dispersing granular or filler type spacing members therein. At least one of the substrates has an optical recording layer thereon, the recording layer faces inside and a specific gravity of the spacing member falls within a range of 0.9 to 1.3 times that of the adhesive. When applying the adhesive to part of at least one of the substrates, a mixture of the spacing members and an adhesive is stored in a tank and is supplied in a small amount in each application cycle.
