Abstract
Abstract Photopolymerizable coating and recording materials, such as photopolymer dry film resist materials and photoresist materials, comprising at least one photopolymerizable olefinic compound, which materials contain, as activated photoinitiator system, a carbonyl compound that, when exposed to actinic light, forms free radicals which initiate polymerization, such as benzophenone and benzophenone derivatives, as well as a benzene compound having at least two dichloromethyl groups bound to the benzene nucleus, such as bis(dichloromethyl)-benzene and 2,5-dichloro-1,4-bis(dichloromethyl)benzene, and preferably also a dye which changes color in the presence of acid. The coating and recording materials of the invention exhibit improved curing when exposed to ultraviolet light for the usual periods and can be readily washed out with solvents without any damage to the exposed areas.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
148 words
A photopolymerizable coating and recording material comprising at least one photopolymerizable olefinically unsaturated organic compound and containing, as the activated photoinitiator system, (a) at least one aromatic carbonyl compound that, when exposed to actinic light, forms free radicals which initiate polymerization, and (b) a halogenated hydrocarbon of the formula ##STR3## wherein two of the substituents R 1 and R 4 denote --CHCl 2 , while the remaining substituents are identical or different and are inert with respect to the dichloromethyl groups, do not interfere with the photopolymerization or with the absorptivity of (b) of less than 20 (liter×mol -1 ×cm -1 ), at a wavelength range λ of from 315 to 400 nm, the amount of (b) containing dichloromethyl groups being at least 0.5% by weight of the whole composition, and being from 0.2 to 12 parts by weight per part by weight of aromatic carbonyl compound (a).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
148 words
A photopolymerizable coating and recording material comprising at least one photopolymerizable olefinically unsaturated organic compound and containing, as the activated photoinitiator system, (a) at least one aromatic carbonyl compound that, when exposed to actinic light, forms free radicals which initiate polymerization, and (b) a halogenated hydrocarbon of the formula ##STR3## wherein two of the substituents R 1 and R 4 denote --CHCl 2 , while the remaining substituents are identical or different and are inert with respect to the dichloromethyl groups, do not interfere with the photopolymerization or with the absorptivity of (b) of less than 20 (liter×mol -1 ×cm -1 ), at a wavelength range λ of from 315 to 400 nm, the amount of (b) containing dichloromethyl groups being at least 0.5% by weight of the whole composition, and being from 0.2 to 12 parts by weight per part by weight of aromatic carbonyl compound (a).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
18 words
The photopolymerizable coating and recording material of claim 1, wherein a bis(dichloromethyl)benzene is used as halogenated hydrocarbon (b).
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
19 words
A photopolymerizable coating and recording material as claimed in claim 1, wherein 2,5-dichloro-1,4-bis(dichloromethyl)benzene is used as halogenated hydrocarbon (b).
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
22 words
The photopolymerizable coating and recording material of claim 1, wherein benzophenone or a substituted benzophenone is used as aromatic carbonyl compound (a).
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
23 words
The photopolymerizable coating and recording material of claim 1, wherein a dye which changes color in the presence of acid is additionally present.
