Abstract:
A process for producing a photosensitive resin printing plate which comprises the following steps:a) an exposure step comprising exposing to light the original photosensitive resin printing plate; b) a development step comprising developing the original photosensitive resin plate to obtain a cured photosensitive resin product; c) a hydrogen-abstracting agent-impregnation step comprising treating a surface layer of the cured photosensitive resin product with a surface-treating solution to impregnate the surface layer with a hydrogen-abstracting agent, wherein the surface treating solution consists essentially of an aqueous surface active agent solution and a hydrogen-abstracting agent which can abstract a hydrogen atom of a compound upon irradiation; and d) a tackiness-removing exposure step comprising irradiating the surface layer with an active radiation, whereby the tackiness of the surface layer is removed.
