Description: FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a photosensitive resin composition containing a novel fluorine-based high molecular compound (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "a fluorine-containing polymer"), in particular, to a photosensitive resin composition useful in a lithographic printing plate. The present invention further relates to a photosensitive resin composition which gives image-forming property of high contrast in a lithographic printing plate. The present invention relates to a positive type photosensitive resin composition which is suitable for use in manufacturing a lithographic printing plate, an IC circuit and a photomask, in particular, relates to a positive type photosensitive resin composition which gives image-forming property of high sensitivity and high contrast, is excellent in antihalation, safelight tolerance and development latitude. More specifically, the present invention relates to a positive type photosensitive resin composition which exhibits image-forming property of high contrast, excellent antihalation, safelight tolerance and wide development latitude, which is obtained by adding a specific compound to a positive type photosensitive resin composition highly sensitized by a conventionally well-known method without reducing the sensitivity. The present invention further relates to an image-recording material usable as an offset printing master, in particular, relates to a positive type photosensitive resin composition for infrared laser for a so-called direct plate-making capable of directly plate-making from digital signals of, e.g., a computer. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION A lithographic printing plate comprising a substrate having coated thereon a photosensitive resin composition is generally subjected to exposure, then the exposed area or the unexposed area is removed by alkali development, thereby an image is obtained. In succeeding printing process, the image area comprising the remaining photosensitive resin composition works as an ink-receiving area and the substrate appeared after dissolution works as a moisture-receiving area, thus a printed matter is obtained. At this time, for obtaining good printed matters, no matter whether it is a negative type lithographic printing plate or a positive type lithographic printing plate, it is preferred that the image area and the non-image area of the image obtained after exposure and development be discriminative as far as possible, i.e., high gradation (high contrast) , in view of image reproducibility and scratch resistance, and also high sensitivity is required. A photosensitive resin composition comprising an o-quinonediazide compound, which is a representative positive type lithographic printing plate, has been industrially used as a very excellent positive type photosensitive resin composition in the production of a lithographic printing plate and as a photoresist. Various methods have so far been suggested for increasing the sensitivity of o-quinonediazide-based positive type photosensitive resin composition, however, those exhibiting image-forming property of high contrast, satisfactory antihalation, safelight tolerance and development latitude without reducing the sensitivity have not yet been found. For example, when the amount of an o-quinonediazide compound is reduced, the sensitivity increases as a matter of course, but the gradation of the image becomes soft with the increase of sensitivity, and antihalation, safelight tolerance and development latitude are deteriorated. Further, when an o-quinonediazide compound is used in combination with a binder having high alkali solubility, the sensitivity increases but the gradation of the image becomes soft with the increase of sensitivity, and antihalation, safelight tolerance and development latitude are deteriorated the same as above. On the other hand, chemical amplification series photosensitive substances having higher sensitivity than o-quinonediazide compounds in which an alkali-soluble group is protected with an acid decomposable group are suggested in U.S. Patent 4,491,628 and European Patent 249139 and widely used. However, even with these compounds, photosensitive resin compositions having image-forming property of high contrast and satisfactory wide development latitude have not yet been obtained. Here, the terminology "image of soft gradation" means that the difference between the step numbers from which an image begins to remain and the step numbers at which a film perfectly remains is large when a printing plate is exposed through a step wedge and developed. Conversely, "image of high contrast" means the difference between the step numbers from which an image begins to remain and the step numbers at which a film perfectly remains is small. Halation is caused in consequence of a lith film being lifted due to the nitrogen gas generated as a result of the decomposition of quinonediazide and perfect contact exposure becoming impossible. In general, when clear sensitivity is the same, the higher the contrast of the image, the more easily is solved the halation. Safelight tolerance is a criterion showing the stability of the sensitivity of an image when a printing plate is exposed to a safelight such as a fluorescent lamp and the higher the contrast of the image, the higher is the safelight tolerance. This is concerning with the fact that quinonediazide is partially decomposed by a safelight. This is because if the quinonediazide is a little decomposed by a weak safelight when an image is high contrast, the image is not eluted and becomes the same with the image not exposed to a safelight. A step wedge is a strip film the density of which changes every step, e.g., by 0.15, which is used for obtaining the relationship between the exposure amount and the remaining film amount of the photosensitive layer after exposure and development. Clear sensitivity means the sensitivity when an image begins to be formed after exposure and development. Development latitude is a characteristic showing the degree of fluctuation of the sensitivity of an image after exposure and development when the concentration of a developing solution is changed and the smaller the fluctuation of the sensitivity, the better is the development latitude. On the other hand, in a photopolymerization series printing plate containing a monomer having a double bond polymerizable with a photopolymerization initiator, which is a representative negative type lithographic printing plate, in particular, in a laser direct exposure type printing plate which is highly sensitive to a laser beam in a visible light region, when image exposure is carried out with an inner drum type laser plate setter comprising exposing a fixed printing plate with a mirror rotating at high speed, fog is liable to occur due to scattered light and reflected light as the gradation is constitutionally soft. If exposure is conducted with a high energy for increasing the press life, fog due to scattered light and reflected light is worsened more and more, therefore, it has not been possible to increase the exposure amount while increasing the press life. It is necessary to prevent fog due to scattered light and reflected light from generating even with high exposure amount for the purpose of increasing the press life. This problem can be solved by making the gradation high contrast. An image exposure by a laser beam is effected for the time of about 1 µsec order per dot but fog due to scattered light and reflected light is caused by exposing a photosensitive material to extremely weak light for several minutes of order, as a result the photosensitive layer is photo-set. Therefore, if the gradation of a photosensitive material is high contrast, the material is photo-set with difficulty by a weak light and removed by development, and does not result in fog. In a heat-sensitive type lithographic printing plate comprising imaging using an infrared laser beam, etc., as the discrimination of an image area and a non-image is low, i.e., the gradation is low (soft), there are problems such as the area of the plate touched with a bare hand causes a blank area of an image or the stability against scratches is poor. Techniques for increasing sensitivity by adding a photoinsensitive compound to a photosensitive composition containing an o-quinonediazide compound have been proposed but these techniques respectively have some drawbacks. For example, a technique of increasing sensitivity by adding a cyclic acid anhydride is disclosed in JP-A-52-80022 (the term "JP-A" as used herein means an "unexamined published Japanese patent application"). However, although the effect of increasing sensitivity is certainly observed according to this method, if an acid anhydride is added in the amount of an extent to be able to obtain a sufficient sensitivity increase, the image becomes soft and safelight tolerance and development latitude extremely deteriorate. Further, for increasing sensitivity, the addition of a condensation product of hydroxybenzophenone and formaldehyde is disclosed in JP-A-55-73045. In this case also as the same with the above JP-A-52-80022, the effect of increasing sensitivity is observed but if the addition amount is such that a sufficient sensitivity increase can be obtained, the image becomes soft and safelight tolerance and development latitude deteriorate. Further, for preparing a lithographic printing plate from a photosensitive composition, a photosensitive composition must be coated on a support. A solution of a photosensitive composition dissolved or dispersed in an organic solvent (hereinafter referred to as "a coating solution") is coated on a support and dried. At this time, if a foam is present in a coating solution, that part is empty of the photosensitive composition, and the obtained product becomes an off-specification product. Therefore, it is known that the higher the defoaming property, the higher is the production suitability, which is the criterion of the liability to defoaming in a coating solution. However, when fluorine-containing polymers so far been used are added, defoaming property is lowered. Here, "image is high contrast" means that the difference between the step numbers from which an image begins to remain and the step numbers at which a film perfectly remains is small when a printing plate is exposed through a step wedge and developed. Conversely, "image is soft" means the difference is large. Further, techniques for increasing sensitivity by adding a photoinsensitive compound to a photosensitive composition containing an o-quinonediazide compound have been proposed but these techniques respectively have some drawbacks in the present state. For example, a technique of increasing sensitivity by adding a cyclic acid anhydride is disclosed in JP-A-52-80022. However, although the effect of increasing sensitivity is certainly observed according to this method, if an acid anhydride is added in the amount to be able to obtain a conspicuous sensitivity increase, the image becomes soft. There are disclosed in JP-A-62-226143, JP-A-3-172849 and JP-A-8-15858 fluorine-containing polymers having a fluoro aliphatic group and a polyoxyalkylene group as a surfactant. However, these polymers did not contribute toward obtaining the photosensitive composition providing an image of high contrast and a coating solution having good defoaming property. The advancement of a laser is remarkable in recent years, in particular, a high output and compact size solid state laser and semiconductor laser having an emission area in near infrared to infrared region are easily available. These lasers are very useful as exposure light sources for direct plate-making from digital data such as a computer. A material for a positive type lithographic printing plate for an infrared laser comprises as essential components a binder resin which is soluble in an aqueous alkali solution and an IR dye which absorbs a light and generates heat. The IR dye functions as a dissolution inhibitor to substantially lower the solubility of the binder resin by the interaction with the binder resin at a non-exposed area (an image area), and the interaction of the IR dye with the binder resin is weakened by the heat generated at an exposed area (a non-image area), and the binder resin is dissolved in an alkali developing solution, thereby a lithographic printing plate is formed. However, there is such a problem as a material for a positive type lithographic printing plate for an infrared laser is in an unstable condition before development, for example, if the surface condition slightly varies by, e.g., mere touching of the surface during handling, the non-exposed area (the image area) is dissolved at development. Such a problem originates in the fundamental difference in plate-making mechanism between a positive type lithographic printing plate material for an infrared laser and a positive type lithographic printing plate material by UV exposure. That is, a positive type lithographic printing plate material in which plate-making is performed by UV exposure comprises a binder resin soluble in an aqueous alkali solution, an onium salt and quinonediazide compounds as essential components, and these onium salt and quinonediazide compounds not only function as a dissolution inhibitor by the interaction with the binder resin at a non-exposed area (an image area), but also are decomposed by light and generate an acid and function as a dissolution accelerator at an exposed area (a non-image area). On the other hand, the IR dye in a material for a positive type lithographic printing plate for an infrared laser functions only as a dissolution inhibitor at a non-exposed area (an image area) and does not accelerate dissolution at an exposed area (a non-image area). Accordingly, in a material for a positive type lithographic printing plate for an infrared laser, for making discrimination between the solubilities at a non-exposed area and at an exposed area, those having high solubility in an alkali developing solution cannot help being used as a binder resin. Therefore, the condition before development becomes unstable. Fluorine-containing polymers having a fluoro aliphatic group, a polyoxyalkylene group, and an acidic hydrogen atom as surfactants are'disclosed in JP-A-8-15858. However, antihalation and safelight tolerance could not be improved at all using the polymers disclosed in JP-A-8-15858 as specific examples. EP-A-0 167 778 corresponding to JP-A-61-23149 relates to a light sensitive reproduction material and printing plates containing the same. The light sensitive material contains a specific naphthochinon-diazide and optionally a water insoluble polymeric binder which can be dissolved in an aqueous alkaline solution. This polymeric binder is preferably selected from novolac resin, in particular resins from substituted phenols and formaldehyde having a higher condensation degree. Alternatively, copolymers of styrene and maleinic acid and anhydride or copolymers of (meth)acrylic acid can be used. This polymeric binder may contain, as branched unit a perfluoroalkyl group. Examples for perfluoroalkyl group-containing binders given in this document are B1 and B5 of Table II. B1 represents the reaction product of polyvinylphenol and maleinic acid monochloride-monoperfluoralkylethylester. Further, binder B5 is obtained by copolymerizing a mixed ester of ethylene glycol, acrylic acid and o-hydroxybenzoic acid, said mixed ester having a free phenol group, with C 7 F 15 CH 2 CH 2 OCO-CH:CH 2 . The present invention aims at solving the above problems and providing a photosensitive resin composition showing image-forming property of high contrast without decreasing the sensitivity, in particular, providing a photosensitive resin composition exhibiting high contrast, satisfactory antihalation, safelight tolerance and wide development latitude. For solving these problems, several techniques of adding a surfactant have so far been proposed. For example, a technique of widening development latitude by the addition of an ampholytic surfactant and an organic boron-based surfactant to a highly sensitized positive type photosensitive composition is disclosed in JP-A-59-121044. A technique of widening development latitude by the addition of a nonionic surfactant to a highly sensitized positive type photosensitive composition is disclosed in JP-A-62-251740. Although both techniques showed the effect of improving development latitude to a certain degree, noticeable results could not be obtained. If the amount is sufficient to obtain the desired effect, the sensitivity is decreased. As for antihalation and safelight tolerance, improving effect could not be obtained. In addition, fluorine-containing polymers having a fluoro aliphatic group, a polyoxyalkylene group or an anionic group as a surfactant are disclosed in JP-A-62-226143, JP-A-3-172849 and JP-A-8-15858. Antihalation and safelight tolerance, however, could not be improved at all using these polymers. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, the object of the present invention is to solve the problems in the prior art and to provide a positive type photosensitive composition showing high contrast image-forming property,and satisfying all of antihalation, safelight tolerance and development latitude without decreasing the sensitivity. Furthermore, the present invention is to solve the above-described problems in the prior art by using a specific fluorine-containing polymer having a fluoro aliphatic group and to provide a photosensitive lithographic printing plate which can provide a high contrast image and the coating solution of which shows good defoaming property. Still further object of the present invention is to provide a positive type photosensitive composition for an infrared laser for direct plate-making which is stable before development and excellent in handleability. As a result of eager studies, the present inventors have found that the above object of the present invention can be attained by adding a specific fluorine-containing polymer to a photosensitive resin composition. That is, the present inventors have found that when the following copolymer is added to a photosensitive resin composition, a positive type photosensitive resin composition showing image-forming property of high contrast, antihalation, safelight tolerance and wide development latitude can be obtained without decreasing the sensitivity. This method of the present invention is particularly effective for making a positive type photosensitive resin composition highly sensitized by conventionally known methods high contrast. A soft image can be made high contrast, and halation, safelight tolerance and development latitude can be improved by the addition of this fluorine-containing polymer. Further, it has been found that the gradation of a negative type lithographic printing plate becomes high contrast by the addition of this fluorine-containing polymer, in particular, in a laser-sensitive photopolymerization series printing plate, a printing plate which is highly sensitive to a laser beam, in which halation'due to scattered light and reflected light has been improved, and having high press life can be obtained. In a heat-sensitive type lithographic printing plate, a printing plate having high discrimination and high image strength, i.e., the area of the plate touched with a bare hand does not cause a blank area of an image, and the stability against scratches has been improved can be obtained. Thus, the photosensitive resin composition according to the present invention contains a polymer (a high molecular compound) having at least a) a fluoro aliphatic group, and b) a group represented by formula -L-P (wherein L represents a divalent organic group connected to the skeleton of the high molecular compound, and P represents an aromatic group having a carboxyl group at the ortho-position). It is thought that due to the fluorine-containing polymer having an aromatic group having a carboxyl group at the ortho-position, the interaction of the fluorine-containing polymer with the binder becomes strong, as a result, further high contrast is accelerated at development. According to the present invention, a positive type photosensitive composition for an infrared laser for direct plate-making which is stable before development and excellent in handleability can be obtained.

The addition amount of the above-described compounds other than the o-quinonediazide compound is preferably from 1 to 50 wt%, more preferably from 5 to 30 wt%, and particularly preferably from 10 to 30 wt%, based on the entire solid content of the lithographic printing plate material. In addition, various additives can be added to the composition of the present invention according to purposes, for example, various resins having a hydrophobic group for improving the ink-receiving property of the image, e.g., octylphenol/formaldehyde resins, t-butylphenol/formaldehyde resins, t-butylphenol/benzaldehyde resins, rosin-modified novolak resins, o-naphthoquinonediazidosulfonate of these modified novolak resins, etc.; and plasticizers for improving the flexibility of the coating film, e.g., dibutyl phthalate, dioctyl phthalate, butyl glycolate, tricresyl phosphate, dioctyl adipate, etc. The addition amount of additives is preferably from 0.01 to 30 wt% based on the total weight of the composition. Moreover, known resins can be added to the composition for further improving the abrasion resistance of the film.

Improvement of Coating Surface Quality : Surfactants, e.g., fluorine surfactants disclosed in JP-A-62-170950 can be added to the photosensitive resin composition according to the present invention for improving the coating surface quality. Addition amount is preferably from 0.001 to 1.0 wt%, more preferably from 0.005 to 0.5 wt%, based on the entire photosensitive resin composition. Yellow dyes can be added to the photosensitive resin composition according to the present invention, preferably yellow dyes the light absorption of which at 417 nm is 70% or more of that at 436 nm. When a photosensitive material for a lithographic printing plate is prepared from the photosensitive resin composition containing the fluorine-containing polymer of the present invention, the resin composition is provided on an appropriate support in the first place. The photosensitive resin composition containing the fluorine-containing polymer of the present invention is dissolved or dispersed in a single or mixed organic solvents described below, coated on a support and dried. Any known organic solvent can be used, but those having a boiling point of from 40°C to 200°C, particularly preferably from 60°C to 160°C, are preferably used from the viewpoint of advantageousness at drying. As a matter of course, organic solvents in which the surfactants of the present invention are dissolved are preferably selected. Examples of organic solvents include alcohols, e.g., methyl alcohol, ethyl alcohol, n-propyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, n-butyl alcohol, isobutyl alcohol, diacetone alcohol, etc.; ketones, e.g., acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl propyl ketone, methyl butyl ketone, methyl amyl ketone, methyl hexyl ketone, diethyl ketone, diisobutyl ketone, cyclohexanone, methylcyclohexanone, acetylacetone, etc.; hydrocarbons, e.g., benzene, toluene, xylene, cyclohexane, methoxybenzene, etc.; acetates, e.g., ethyl acetate, n-propyl acetate, isopropyl acetate, n-butyl acetate, isobutyl acetate, ethylbutyl acetate, hexyl acetate, etc.; halides, e.g:, methylene dichloride, ethylene dichloride, monochlorobenzene, etc.; ethers, e.g., isopropyl ether, n-butyl ether, dioxane, dimethyl dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, etc.; polyhydric alcohols and derivatives thereof, e.g., ethylene glycol, methyl cellosolve, methyl cellosolve acetate, ethyl cellosolve, diethyl cellosolve, cellosolve acetate, butyl cellosolve, butyl cellosolve acetate, methoxymethoxyethanol, diethylene glycol monomethyl ether, diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, diethylene glycol methylethyl ether, diethylene glycol diethyl ether, propylene glycol, propylene glycol monomethyl ether, propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, propylene glycol monoethyl ether, propylene glycol monoethyl ether acetate, propylene glycol monobutyl ether, 3-methyl-3-methoxybutanol, etc.; and specific solvents, e.g., dimethyl sulfoxide, N,N-dimethylformamide. They are used alone or in combination. The concentration of the solid content in the composition for coating is preferably from 2 to 50 wt%. Various coating methods are used in the present invention, e.g., roll coating, dip coating, air knife coating, gravure coating, gravure offset coating; hopper coating, blade coating, wire doctor coating, or spray coating. Dry coating weight is preferably from 0.3 to 4.0 g/m 2 . As the coating amount reduces, the exposure amount for obtaining images can be saved but the film strength lowers. As the coating amount increases, the exposure amount increases but the photosensitive film comes to be strong, as a result, when the plate is used as a printing plate, a printing plate having high press life can be obtained. The photosensitive resin composition coated on a support is generally dried by hot air. Heating temperature is from 30°C to 200°C, particularly preferably from 40°C to 140°C. Drying temperature may be maintained constant or may be increased stepwise. The removal of moisture of drying air sometimes brings about good results. Drying air is preferably supplied to the coated surface at a rate of from 0.1 m/sec to 30 m/sec, particularly preferably from 0.5 m/sec to 20 m/sec. Matting Layer : It is preferred to provide a matting layer on the thus-provided photosensitive layer surface for shortening the vacuum time at contact exposure using a vacuum printing frame and preventing halation. Specifically, providing methods of a matting layer as disclosed in JP-A-50-125805, JP-B-57-6582 and JP-B-61-28986, and a method of fusing solid particles by heat as disclosed in JP-B-62-62337 can be exemplified. A support for use in a photosensitive lithographic printing plate is a plate having dimensional stability and supports so far been used as a support of lithographic printing plate can be preferably used. Examples of such supports include paper; paper laminated with plastics (e.g., polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene); metal plates, e.g., aluminum (including aluminum alloys), zinc, iron, and copper; plastic films, e.g., cellulose diacetate, cellulose triacetate, cellulose propionate, cellulose butyrate, cellulose acetate butyrate, cellulose nitrate, polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene, polystyrene, polypropylene, polycarbonate, and polyvinyl acetal; and paper or plastic films laminated or deposited with metals as above; and an aluminum plate is particularly preferably used. Aluminum plates include a pure aluminum plate and an aluminum alloy plate. Various aluminum alloys can be used, e.g., alloys of aluminum with metals such as silicon, copper, manganese, magnesium, chromium, zinc, lead, bismuth, or nickel. These compositions include a negligible amount of impurities in addition to a certain amount of iron and titanium. A support is subjected to surface treatment, if necessary. For example, in the case of a photosensitive lithographic printing plate, the surface of the support is subjected to hydrophilization treatment. In the case of a metal support, in particular, a support having an aluminum surface, it is preferred to perform surface treatment such as sanding treatment, immersion treatment in an aqueous solution of sodium silicate, potassium zirconium acid fluoride, phosphate, etc., or anodic oxidation treatment. Further, as disclosed in U.S. Patent 2,714,066, an aluminum plate subjected to immersion treatment in an aqueous sodium silicate solution after sanding treatment, or an aluminum plate surface treated by immersion in an aqueous solution of alkali metal silicate after anodic oxidation treatment as disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,181,461 are also preferably used. Anodic oxidation treatment is carried out by turning on electricity with the aluminum plate being the anode in an electrolytic solution comprising alone or combination of two or more of an aqueous solution or nonaqueous solution of an inorganic acid such as phosphoric acid, chromic acid, sulfuric acid, boric acid, etc., or an organic acid such as oxalic acid, sulfamic acid, etc., or salts of these. Electrodeposition of silicate as disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,658,662 is also useful. These hydrophilization treatments are conducted for preventing harmful reactions of a support with a photosensitive resin composition provided on the support, or for improving the adhesion of the support with the photosensitive layer, in addition to making the support surface hydrophilic. If needed, a treatment to remove rolling oil and a treatment to expose the clean surface may be effected prior to the sanding treatment. The former is conducted with a solvent such as trichlene and a surfactant and the latter is widely conducted with an alkali etching agent such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide. As sanding methods, any of mechanical, chemical and electrochemical methods can be used. Mechanical methods include a ball abrading method, a blasting method, and a brushing method in which water dispersion slurry of an abrasive such as pumice or the like is rubbed on the surface of a plate with a nylon brush, as a chemical method, a method of immersion in a saturated aqueous solution of an aluminum salt of a mineral acid as disclosed in JP-A-54-31187 is preferred, and as an electrochemical method, a method of performing alternating current electrolysis in an acid electrolytic solution of hydrochloric acid, nitric acid or combination of these can be cited as a preferred method. Of these surface roughening methods, a method of combining mechanical roughening with electrochemical roughening as disclosed in JP-A-55-137993 is preferred because strong adhesion of a sensitized image to the support can be obtained. Sanding as described above is preferably performed so as to reach the center line surface roughness (Ra) of the surface of an aluminum plate of from 0.3 to 1.0 µm. The aluminum plate thus surface treated is washed and subjected to chemical etching, if necessary. An etching solution is generally selected from among aqueous solutions of base or acid for dissolving aluminum. In this case, an etching solution is selected such that a film different from the aluminum derived from the ingredient of the etching solution is not formed on the etched surface. Examples of preferred etching agent include, as basic substances, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, trisodium phosphate, disodium phosphate, tripotassium phosphate, and dipotassium phosphate; and as acid substances, sulfuric acid, persulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, hydrochloric acid and salts thereof. Salts of metals having a lower tendency to ionization than aluminum, e.g., zinc, chromium, cobalt, nickel, and copper are not preferred because an unnecessary film is formed on the etched surface. The concentration and temperature of these etching agents are most preferably set up such that the solution rate of the aluminum or alloy to be used falls within the range of from 0.3 to 40 g/m 2 per immersion time of one hour, but lower than that or higher than that may be used. Etching is performed by immersing an aluminum plate in an etching solution or coating the etching solution on the aluminum plate, and the etching is preferably carried out with the amount of the etching solution of from 0.5 to 10 g/m 2 . Since the etching speed is fast with the above etching agents, it is preferred to use a basic aqueous solution. In this case, as smutting is generated, desmutting treatment is generally conducted. As acids for use in desmutting treatment, nitric acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, chromic acid, hydrofluoric acid, borofluorohydroacid, etc., are used. The etching-treated aluminum plate is washed and anodically oxidized, if necessary. Anodic oxidation can be effected by conventionally used methods in this field. specifically, by applying a direct or alternating electric current to an aluminum plate in an aqueous solution or nonaqueous solution comprising single or combination of two or more of sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, chromic acid, oxalic acid, sulfamic acid, or benzenesulfonic acid, an anodic oxidation film can be formed on the surface of the aluminum support. Treatment conditions of anodic oxidation cannot be determined unconditionally as conditions fluctuate variously depending upon the electrolytic solution to be used, but generally appropriately the concentration of an electrolytic solution is from 1 to 80 wt%, temperature is from 5 to 70°C, electric current density is from 0.5 to 60 ampere/dm 2 , voltage is from 1 to 100 V, and electrolytic time is from 30 seconds to 5 minutes. Of these anodic oxidation treatments, the method of effecting anodic oxidation in sulfuric acid at high electric current density as disclosed in British Patent 1,412,768, and the method of effecting anodic oxidation with phosphoric acid being an electrolytic bath disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,511,661 are particularly preferred. The thus-roughened and further anodically oxidized aluminum plate may be hydrophilized, if necessary. As preferred examples thereof, there are methods of treatment with alkali metal silicate, e.g., an aqueous solution of sodium silicate as disclosed in U.S. Patents 2,714,066 and 3,181,461, with potassium zirconium acid fluoride as disclosed in JP-B-36-22063, and with polyvinylsulfonic acid as disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,153,461. Organic Undercoating Layer : It is preferred that the photosensitive lithographic printing plate according to the present invention is provided with an organic undercoating layer before coating a photosensitive layer in view of reducing the photosensitive layer remaining on a non-image area. Organic compounds which are used in such an undercoating layer are selected from carboxymethyl collulose, dextrin, gum arabic, organic phosphonic acid, e.g., phosphonic acids having an amino group, such as 2-aminoethylphosphonic acid, phenylphosphonic acid which may have a substituent, naphthylphosphonic acid, alkylphosphonic acid, glycerophosphonic acid, methylenediphosphonic acid, and ethylenediphosphonic aaid, organic phosphoric acid, e.g., phenylphosphoric acid which may have a substituent, naphthylphosphoric acid, alkylphosphoric acid, and glycerophosphoric acid, organic phosphinic acid, e.g., phenylphosphinic acid which may have a substituent, naphthylphosphinic acid, alkylphosphinic acid, and glycerophosphinic acid, amino acids, e.g., glycine and β-alanine, and amine hydrochloride having a hydroxyl group such as triethanolamine hydrochloride.

An organic undercoating layer can be provided by the following methods, that is, a solution obtained by dissolving the above-described organic compounds in water or a single or mixed organic solvent such as methanol, ethanol, methyl ethyl ketone, etc., is coated on an aluminum plate, and dried to provide an organic undercoating layer. Alternatively, an aluminum plate is immersed in a solution obtained by dissolving the above-described organic compounds in water or a single or mixed organic solvent such as methanol, ethanol, methyl ethyl ketone, etc., thereby the organic compounds are adsorbed onto the aluminum plate, the plate is washed with water or the like, and then dried to provide an organic undercoating layer. According to the former method, the solution containing the above organic compounds in concentration of from 0.005 to 10 wt% can be coated by various means. For example, any method of bar coating, rotating coating, spray coating and curtain coating may be used. In the latter method, the concentration of the solution is from 0.01 to 20 wt%, preferably from 0.05 to 5 wt%, immersion temperature is from 20 to 90°C, preferably from 25 to 50°C, and immersion time is from 0.1 second to 20 minutes, preferably from 2 seconds to 1 minute. The pH of the solution is adjusted to 1 to 12 with basic substance, e.g., ammonia, triethylamine, or potassium hydroxide, or acidic substance, e.g., hydrochloric acid or phosphoric acid. A yellow dye can be added to the solution for improving tone reproducibility of the photosensitive lithographic printing plate.

The dry coating weight of the organic undercoating layer is generally from 2 to 200 mg/m 2 preferably from 5 to 100 mg/m 2 . If the coating weight is less than 2 mg/m 2 , sufficient press life cannot be obtained, while when it is more than 200 mg/m 2 , press life similarly lowers. Back Coating Layer : The back surface of the support is provided with a back coating layer, if necessary. Coating layers comprising a metal oxide obtained by hydrolyzing and polycondensing the organic high molecular compounds disclosed in JP-A-5-45885 and the organic or inorganic metal compounds disclosed in JP-A-6-35174 are preferably used as such a back coating layer. Of these coating layers, alkoxyl compounds of silicon such as Si(OCH 3 ) 4 , Si(OC 2 H 5 ) 4 , Si(OC 3 H 7 ) 4 , Si(OC 4 H 9 ) 4 are inexpensive and easily available, and coating layers of the metal oxides obtained from these compounds are excellent in resistance against a developing solution and particularly preferred. The thus-obtained lithographic printing plate is generally subjected to image exposure and development process. As the light sources of actinic ray used for image exposure, e.g., a mercury lamp, a metal halide lamp, a xenon lamp, a chemical lamp, and a carbon arc lamp are used. Radial rays include electron beams, X-rays, ion beams, and far infrared rays. Further, grays, i-rays, Deep-UV rays, high density energy beams (laser beams) are also used. As laser beams, helium-neon laser, argon laser, krypton laser, helium-cadmium laser, and KrF exima laser can be cited. Further, in a direct imaging printing plate for laser, light sources having light emission wavelength at near infrared to infrared are preferred, and a solid state laser and a semiconductor laser are particularly preferred. Developing solutions containing (a) at least one kind of sugar selected from nonreducing sugars, (b) at least one kind of base, and having pH of from 9.0 to 13.5 are preferably used as a developing solution for a lithographic printing plate Using the photosensitive resin composition according to the present invention. This developing solution is described in detail below. Unless otherwise indicated, a developing solution means a developing initiator (a developing solution in a narrow sense) and a developing replenisher. This developing solution preferably comprises, as main components, at least one compound selected from nonreducing sugars and at least one base, and the pH of the solution is preferably within the range of from 9.0 to 13.5. Such nonreducing sugars are sugars which do not have a free aldehyde group and a ketone group and do not show reducing property. They are classified to a trehalose type oligosaccharide in which reducing groups are bonded to each other, a glycoside in which reducing groups of sugars and nonsugars are bonded to each other, and a sugar alcohol obtained by the reduction by hydrogenation of sugars, and all of these nonreducing sugars can be preferably used. Trehalose type oligosaccharides include succharose and trehalose, glycosides include alkyl glycoside, phenol glycoside, and mustard oil glycoside, and sugar alcohols include D- and L-arabitol, ribitol, xylitol, D- and L-sorbitol, D- and L-mannitol, D- and L-iditol, D- and L-talitol, dulicitol, and allodulcitol. In addition, maltitol obtained by hydrogenation of disaccharide and the reductant (reduced starch syrup) obtained by hydrogenation of oligosaccharide are preferably used. Particularly preferred of these nonreducing sugars are sugar alcohols and succharose. Above all, D-sorbitol, succharose and reduced starch syrup are preferred for the reasons that they show buffer action in an appropriate pH range and inexpensive. Such nonreducing sugars can be used alone or in combination of two or more, and the proportion of nonreducing sugars in the developing solution is preferably from 0.1 to 30 wt%, more preferably from 1 to 20 wt%. If the concentration is less than this range, sufficient buffer action cannot be obtained, while when the concentration is out of this range, high concentration of developing solutions is difficult to obtain and the problem of the production cost increase arises. When reducing sugars are used in combination with bases, the system discolors to brown with the lapse of time and pH gradually decreases, which results in the reduction of developing property. Alkali agents so far been known can be used as a base to be used in combination with reducing sugars. Examples of such alkali agents include an inorganic alkali agent such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide, trisodium phosphate, tripotassium phosphate, triammonium phosphate, disodium phosphate, dipotassium phosphate, diammonium phosphate, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, ammonium carbonate, sodium hydrogencarbonate, potassium hydrogencarbonate, ammonium hydrogencarbonate, sodium borate, potassium borate, and ammonium borate.

These alkali agents are used alone or in combination of two or more. Of these alkali agents, sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide are preferred for the reason that the pH adjustment in a wide pH range becomes possible by adjusting the amount of these alkali agents based on the nonreducing sugars. Further, trisodium phosphate, tripotassium phosphate, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate are also preferred due to their own buffer action. These alkali agents are added so as to reach the pH 9.0 to 13.5 of the developing solution, and the addition amount is determined depending upon the desired pH, the kind and the addition amount of the nonreducing sugars to be used. The preferred pH range is from 10.0 to 13.2. An alkaline buffering solution comprising weak base and weak acid other than sugars can further be used in the developing solution in combination. Weak acids for use as such a buffering solution preferably have a dissociation constant (pKa) of from 10.0 to 13.2.

Of these weak acids, sulfosalicylic acid and salicylic acid are preferred. Sodium hydroxide, ammonium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, and lithium hydroxide are preferably used as a base to be used in combination with a weak acid. These alkali agents are used alone or in combination of two or more. These alkali agents are used with adjusting pH in a desired range by the concentration and combination. Various surfactants can be added to the developing solution according to necessity with a view to accelerating development, dispersing developer scum, and increasing the. affinity to ink of the image area of a printing plate. As preferred surfactants, anionic, cationic, nonionic, and ampholytic surfactants can be exemplified. Preferred examples of surfactants include nonionic surfactants, e.g., polyoxyethylenealkyl ethers, polyoxyethylenealkylphenyl ethers, polyoxyethylenepolystyrylphenyl ethers, polyoxyethylenepolyoxypropylenealkyl ethers, glycerol fatty acid partial esters, sorbitan fatty acid partial esters, pentaerythritol fatty acid partial esters, propylene glycol monofatty acid esters, sucrose fatty acid partial esters, polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid partial esters, polyoxyethylene sorbitol fatty acid partial esters, polyethylene glycol fatty acid esters, polyglycerol fatty acid partial esters, polyoxyethylenated castor oils, polyoxyethylene glycerol fatty acid partial esters, fatty acid diethanolamides, N,N-bis-2-hydroxyalkylamines, polyoxyethylenealkylamine, triethanolamine fatty acid ester, and trialkylamine oxide; fatty acid salts, abietates, hydroxyalkanesulfonates, alkanesulfonates, dialkylsulfosuccinates, straight chain alkylbenzenesulfonates, branched chain alkylbenzenesulfonates, alkylnaphthalenesulfonates, alkylphenoxypolyoxyethylenepropylsulfonates, polyoxyethylenealkylsulfophenyl ethers, N-methyl-N-oleyltaurine sodium salt, N-alkylsulfosuccinate monoamido disodium salt, petroleum sulfonates, sulfated tallow, fatty acid alkyl ester sulfates, alkylsulfates, polyoxyethylenealkyl ether sulfates, fatty acid monoglyceride sulfates, polyoxyethylenealkylphenyl ether sulfates, polyoxyethylenestyrylphenyl ether sulfates, alkylphosphates, polyoxyethylenealkyl ether phosphates, polyoxyethylenealkylphenyl ether phosphates, partially saponified products of styrene/maleic anhydride copolymers, anionic surfactants, e.g., condensation products of naphthalenesulfonate/formaldehyde, alkylamines, tertiary ammonium salts, e.g., tetrabutylammonium bromide, cationic surfactants, e.g., polyoxyethylenealkylamines, polyethylenepolyamine derivatives, ampholytic surfactants, e.g., carboxy-betaines, aminocarboxylic acids, sulfobetaines, aminosulfates, and imidazolines. Of the above surfactants, "polyoxyethylene" can include polyoxyalkylene such as polyoxymethylene, polyoxypropylene, polyoxybutylene, therefore, surfactants thereof are also included. More preferred surfactants are surfactants which include a perfluoroalkyl group in the molecule. Examples of such surfactants include an anionic type, e.g., perfluoroalkylcarboxylate, perfluoroalkylsulfonates, perfluoroalkylphosphates, an ampholytic type, e.g., perfluoroalkylbetaine, a cationic type, e.g., perfluoroalkyltrimethylammonium salt, and a nonionic type, e.g., perfluoroalkylamine oxide, perfluoroalkylethylene oxide adducts, oligomers containing a perfluoroalkyl group and a hydrophilic group, oligomers containing a perfluoroalkyl group and a lipophilic group, oligomers containing a perfluoroalkyl group, a hydrophilic group, and a lipophilic group, and urethane containing a perfluoroalkyl group and a lipophilic group. These surfactants can be used alone or in combination of two or more, and they are added to a developing solution in the range of preferably from 0.001 to 10 wt%, more preferably from 0.01 to 5 wt%. Various development stabilizers can be used in a developing solution. Polyethylene adducts of sugar alcohols disclosed in JP-A-6-282079, tetraalkylammonium salts such as tetrabutylammonium hydroxide, phosphonium salts such as tetrabutylphosphonium bromide, and iodonium salts such as diphenyliodonium chloride are exemplified as preferred examples of such development stabilizers. Further, anionic surfactants and ampholytic surfactants disclosed in JP-A-50-51324, water-soluble cathionic polymers disclosed in JP-A-55-95946, water-soluble ampholytic high molecular electrolyte disclosed in JP-A-56-142528 can also be exemplified. Further, organic boron compounds added with alkylene glycol disclosed in JP-A-59-84241, polyoxyethylene/polyoxypropylene block polymer type water-soluble surfactants disclosed in JP-A-60-111246, alkylenediamine compounds substituted with polyoxyethylene/polyoxypropylene disclosed in JP-A-60-129750, polyethylene glycol having a weight average molecular weight of 300 or more disclosed in JP-A-61-215554, fluorine-containing surfactants having a cationic group disclosed in JP-A-63-175858, and water-soluble ethylene oxide addition compounds obtained by adding 4 mols or more of ethylene oxide to alcohol, water-soluble polyalkylene compounds disclosed in JP-A-2-39157 can be exemplified. Further, an organic solvent can be added to a developing solution, if necessary. Such an organic solvent has solubility in water of 10 wt% or less, preferably 5 wt% or less, e.g., 1-phenylethanol, 2-phenylethanol, 3-phenyl-1-propanol, 4-phenyl-1-butanol, 4-phenyl-2-butanol, 2-phenyl-1-butanol, 2-phenoxyethanol, 2-benzyloxyethanol, o-methoxybenzyl alcohol, m-methoxybenzyl alcohol, p-methoxybenzyl alcohol, benzyl alcohol, cyclohexanol, 2-methylcyclohexanol, 3-methylcyclohexanol, 4-methylcyclohexanol, N-phenylethanolamine, and N-phenyldiethanolamine can be exemplified. The content of the organic solvent is from 0.1 to 5 wt% based on the total weight of the working solution. The use amount of the organic solvent is intimately related with the use amount of the surfactant. It is preferred to increase the amount of the surfactant as the amount of the organic solvent increases. This is because if the amount of the surfactant is small and the amount of the organic solvent is large, the organic solvent does not dissolve completely, therefore, good developing property cannot be ensured. Moreover, a reducing agent can be added to a developing solution. A reducing agent is added in order to prevent a printing plate from being contaminated and it is particularly effective when a negative type lithographic printing plate containing a photosensitive diazonium salt compound is developed. As preferred organic reducing agents, phenol compounds, e.g., thiosalicylic acid, hydroquinone, metol, methoxyquinone, resorcin, and 2-methylresorcin, and amine compounds, e.g., phenylenediamine and phenylhydrazine can be exemplified. Examples of more preferred inorganic reducing agents include sodium salt, potassium salt, and ammonium salt of inorganic acid such as sulfurous acid, sulfurous acid hydroacid, phosphorous acid, phosphorous acid hydroacid, phosphorous acid secondary hydroacid, thiosulfuric acid, and dithionic acid. Of these reducing agents, sulfite is particularly excellent in contamination preventing effect. The amount of those reducing agents are from 0.05 to 5 wt% based on the developing solution. Further, a developing agent can contain organic carboxylic acid. Preferred organic carboxylic acids are aliphatic and aromatic carboxylic acids having from 6 to 20 carbon atoms. Specific examples of aliphatic carboxylic acids include caproic acid, enanthylic acid, caprylic acid, lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, and stearic acid, and particularly preferred organic carboxylic acid is alkanoic acid having from 8 to 12 carbon atoms. Further, unsaturated fatty acids having a double bond in carbon chain can be used or carbon chain may be branched. Examples of aromatic carboxylic acids include compounds in which a benzene ring, naphthalene ring, or anthracene ring is substituted with a carboxylic group, specifically o-chlorobenzoic acid, p-chlorobenzoic acid, o-hydroxybenzoic acid, p-hydroxybenzoic acid, o-aminobenzoic acid, p-aminobenzoic acid, 2,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid, 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid, 2,6-dihydroxybenzoic acid, 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid, 3,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid, gallic acid, 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid, 3-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid, 2-hydroxy-1-naphthoic acid, 1-naphthoic acid, and 2-naphthoic acid, and hydroxynaphthoic acid . is particularly effectively used. It is preferred to use these aliphatic and aromatic carboxylic acids as sodium salt, potassium salt or ammonium salt for heightening water solubility. The content of carboxylic acids for use in a developing solution is not particularly limited, but when it is lower than 0.1 wt%, sufficient effect cannot be obtained, while when it is more than 10 wt%, not only further effect cannot be obtained but the solubility of other additives is hindered. Accordingly, a preferred content is from 0.1 to 10 wt%, more preferably from 0.5 to 4 wt%, based on the working developing solution. Further, if necessary, a developing solution can contain antiseptics, coloring agents, thickeners, defoaming agents, and water softeners. Examples of water softeners include polyphosphoric acid and sodium salt, potassium salt and ammonium salt thereof, aminopolycarboxylic acid and sodium salt, potassium salt and ammonium salt thereof, e.g., ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid, triethylenetetraminehexaacetic acid, hydroxyethylethylenediaminetriacetic acid, nitrilotriacetic acid, 1,2-diaminocyclohexanetetraacetic acid, and 1,3-diamino-2-propanoltetraacetic acid, amino.tri (methylenephosphonic acid), ethylenediaminetetra (methylenephosphonic acid), diethylenetriaminepenta(methylenephosphonic acid), triethylenetetraminehexa(methylenephosphonic acid), hydroxyethylethylenediaminetri(methylenephosphonic acid), and 1-hydroxytaene-1,1-diphosphonic acid and sodium salt, potassium salt and ammonium salt thereof. The optimal value of water softeners varies according to chelation, the hardness and amount of the hard water to be used but is generally from 0.01 to 5 wt%, more preferably from 0.01 to 0.5 wt%, based on the working developing solution. If the addition amount is less than this range, the expected effect cannot be obtained sufficiently, and if the amount is more than this range, adverse effects on the image area comes to appear, such as color missing. The remainder of the component of a developing solution is water. From the viewpoint of conveyance, it is convenient to prepare a developing solution in concentration to dilute with water at use. The concentration is preferably such that each component does not separate or precipitate. The developing solution disclosed in JP-A-6-282079 can also be used as the developing solution of the lithographic printing plate using the photosensitive resin composition according to the present invention. This is a developing solution containing silicic acid alkali metal salt having an SiO 2 /M 2 O (M represents alkali metal) molar ratio of from 0.5 to 2.0, and a water-soluble ethylene oxide adduct obtained by adding 5 mols or more ethylene oxide to a sugar alcohol having 4 or more hydroxyl groups. The sugar alcohol is a polyhydric alcohol corresponding to the alcohol in which the aldehyde group and the ketone group of the sugar are reduced to make a primary alcohol and a secondary alcohol. Specific examples of sugar alcohols include D- and L-threitol, erythritol, D- and L-arabitol, ribitol, xylitol, D- and L-sorbitol, D- and L-mannitol, D- and L-iditol, D- and L-talitol, dulicitol, and allodulcitol. Further, di-, tri-, tetra-, penta- and hexaglycerol which are condensation products of sugar alcohol can be exemplified. The aforesaid water-soluble ethylene oxide adduct can be obtained by adding 5 mols or more ethylene oxide to 1 mol of sugar alcohol. Further, if necessary, an ethylene oxide adduct may be block copolymerized with a propylene oxide within such a range as the solubility is not hindered. These ethylene oxide adducts may be used alone or in combination of two or more. The addition amount of water-soluble ethylene oxide adduct is preferably from 0.001 to 5 wt%, more preferably from 0.001 to 2 wt%, based on the developing solution (working solution). Various surfactants can be added to the developing solution according to necessity with a view to accelerating development, dispersing developer scum, and increasing the affinity to ink of the image area of a printing plate. The PS plate development treated with the developing solution having the above composition is post-treated with a washing water, a rinsing water containing surfactants, a finisher or a protective mucilage containing gum arabic and starch. derivatives as main components. In the post-treatment of the PS plate according to the present invention, these treatments are used in various combinations. In recent years, an automatic processor for a PS plate is used prevailingly in the plate-making/printing industry for the purpose of rationalization and standardization of plate-making work. Such an automatic processor generally consists of a development part and a post-treatment part and equipped with a conveying unit of a PS plate, processing solution tanks, and spraying unit. Development and post-treatment are effected by spraying each processing solution pumped up to the PS plate by means of a spray nozzle while conveying the exposed PS plate horizontally. A method of development processing a PS plate while conveying with the PS plate being immersed in a processing solution tank filled with a processing solution by means of guide rolls in the solution, and a method of washing the plate surface after development by supplying a certain small amount of a washing water and reusing the waste solution as a diluent solution of a concentrated developing solution are also known. In such automatic processing, processing can be carried out with replenishing each replenisher to each processing solution corresponding to the processing amount, the operating time, etc. Moreover, a nonreturnable system in which processing is carried out with substantially a virgin solution is also applicable. A lithographic printing plate obtained through these processes is loaded on an offset printing machine for use for printing of a lot of sheets.

An aluminum plate (JIS A 1050) having a thickness of 0.24 mm was subjected to brush-graining treatment with applying to the aluminum surface a suspension of pumice stone having an average particle size of about 2.1 µm and water using a rotating brush shown below. The first brush was, hair length: 100 mm, hair diameter: 0.95 mm, and density: 70/cm 2 , and the second brush was, hair length: 80 mm, hair diameter: 0.295 mm, anddensity: 670/cm 2 . The rotation rate of brush rolls was 250 rpm respectively. After brush-graining, the plate was thoroughly washed with water, etching was effected by immersing the plate in a 10% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution at 60°C for 25 seconds, the plate was further washed with flowing water, then washed with a 20% nitric acid aqueous solution for neutralization followed by washing with water. Under the condition of V A of 12.7 V using alternating waveform electric current of sine wave, the plate was subjected to electrolytic surface roughening treatment in a 1% nitric acid aqueous solution by the quantity of electricity of anode of 160 C/dm 2 . The surface roughness determined was 0.79 µm (Ra). Subsequently, the plate was immersed in a 1% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution at 40°C for 30 seconds, then immersed in a 30% sulfuric acid aqueous solution and desmutting treatment was performed at 60°C for 40 seconds. Then, the plate was anodically oxidized by direct current in a 20% sulfuric acid aqueous solution at electric density of 2A/dm 2 so as to reach the oxide film amount of 1.6 g/m 2 , thereby a substrate was prepared. Undercoating solution (A) having the following composition was coated on the surface of the-thus treated substrate and dried at 80°C for 30 seconds. The coating amount after drying was 10 mg/m 2 . Undercoating Solution (A) β-Alanine 0.10 g Methanol 40 g Pure water 60 g Thus, substrate (I) was prepared. The photosensitive solution shown in Table 2a below was coated on substrate (I) by rod coating in an amount of 12 ml/m 2 , dried at 100°C for 1 minute, thereby a positive type photosensitive lithographic printing plate was obtained. Dry coating amount was 1.15 g/m 2 . For shortening vacuum contact time, a matting layer was provided as disclosed in JP-B-61-28986.

The lithographic printing plate was exposed by a metal halide lamp of 3 kW from the distance of 1 m for 1 minute through a step wedge (density difference of each step was 0.15, manufactured by Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd.). The exposed plate was development processed in PS Processor 900V (manufactured by Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd.) at 30°C for 12 seconds using an aqueous solution having a molar ratio of SiO 2 /K 2 O of 1.16 and SiO 2 concentration of 1.4%. Sensitivity was expressed by clear step number. The higher the step number, the higher is the sensitivity. Gradation was the difference between the above clear step number in the sensitivity evaluation and solid step number. The smaller the value, the higher is the contrast. Exposure and development were carried out in the same manner as above except that the same developing solution as above in which pH was increased or decreased by 0.2 up and down was used. The development latitude expressed the change of solid step number due to pH. The smaller the value, the more excellent is the development latitude. The results obtained are shown in Table 4a below.

EXAMPLES 5a TO 9a AND COMPARATIVE EXAMPLE 3a A 1S aluminum plate having a thickness of 0.30 mm was subjected to brush-graining treatment using a No. 8 nylon brush and a suspension of 800 mesh pumice stone and water, and the surface of the plate was thoroughly washed with water. The etching was effected by immersing the plate in a 10% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution at 70°C for 60 seconds, the plate was further washed with flowing water, then washed with a 20% HNO 3 aqueous solution for neutralization followed by washing with water. Under the condition of V A of 12.7 V using alternating waveform electric current of sine wave, the plate was subjected to electrolytic surface roughening treatment in a 1% nitric acid aqueous solution by the quantity of electricity of anode of 300 C/dm 2 . The surface roughness determined was 0.45 µm (Ra). Subsequently, the plate was immersed in a 30% H 2 SO 4 aqueous solution and desmutting treatment was performed at 55°C for 2 minutes. Then, the cathode was arranged on the surface subjected to graining treatment in a 20% H 2 SO 4 aqueous solution at 33°C, and the plate was anodically oxidized at electric density of 5A/dm 2 for 50 seconds. The oxide film obtained had an oxide film amount of 2.7 g/m 2 . Further, the plate was immersed in a 2.5 wt% aqueous solution of sodium silicate (SiO 2 : 28 to 30%, Na 2 O: 9 to 10%, Fe: 0.02% or less) having pH of 11.2 at 70°C for 13 seconds followed by washing with water. The amount of silicate at that time was 10 mg/m 2 . The amount of Si element was measured by fluorescent X-ray analysis. A liquid composition (sol) of SG method was prepared by the following procedure. Each of the following composition was weighed and put in a beaker and stirred at 25°C for 20 minutes. Si(OC 2 H 5 ) 4 38 g 3-Methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane 13 g A 85% phosphoric acid aqueous solution 12 g Ion exchange water 15 g Methanol 100 g The solution was poured from the beaker to a three necked flask. A reflux cooler was attached to the three necked flask and the flask was immersed in an oil bath at room temperature. The temperature was raised to 50°C over 30 minutes while stirring the content of the flask with a magnetic stirrer. The content of the flask was allowed to react for further 1 hour while maintaining the temperature of the oil bath at 50°C, thereby a liquid composition (sol) was obtained. The sol was diluted with methanol/ethylene glycol (ratio of 20/1 (by weight)) so as to reach the concentration of 0.5 wt%, and coated on the substrate by a wheeler, then dried at 100°C for 1 minute. The coating amount at that time was 4 mg/m 2 . The amount of Si element was measured by fluorescent X-ray analysis and the obtained amount was taken as the coating amount. On the thus-treated aluminum plate was coated high sensitivity photopolymerizable composition 1 as shown below so that dry coating amount became 1.5 g/m 2 , and dried at 100°C for 1 minute, thereby a photosensitive layer was formed. On this photosensitive layer was coated a 3 wt% polyvinyl alcohol aqueous solution (saponification degree: 98 mol%, polymerization degree: 500) as an oxygen-cutting off protective layer in a dry coating amount of 2.5 g/m 2 , and then dried at 120°C for 3 minutes. Thus, a photopolymerizable lithographic printing plate was obtained. The plate was exposed from 1% to 99% every 1% each at two places by the condition of 0.15 mJ/cm 2 , 4,000 dpi, 175 lines/inch using XLP4000 (Ar laser 75 mW, 488 nm, manufactured by Optoronics Co., Ltd.). Subsequently, post-heat treatment was conducted by exposing the plate to temperature of 120°C for 20 seconds. Development was carried out by immersion in the following developing solution at 25°C for 30 seconds. Developing Solution 1K Potassium silicate 30 g Potassium hydroxide 15 g Water 1,000 g Gum solution GU-7 (manufactured by Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd.) was diluted with water to 2 times and the printing plate was treated with this solution. Under the condition of 4,000 dpi and 175 lines/inch, the amount of the printing plate energy reproduced by 1% was found as the sensitivity of the sample. Press life was measured by using SORKZ (manufactured by Heidelberg) as a printing machine, Kraf G (N) (manufactured by Dainippon Chemicals and Ink Co., Ltd.) as ink, and acidic PS plate cleaner CL-2 (manufactured by Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd.) as a plate cleaner. After each sample was stored at 60°C for three days, exposure, development and printing were performed in the same manner as above. The scum of nonimage area was visually observed and aging stability was evaluated. After 5,000 sheets were printed, the ink adhered to the plate was cleaned by wiping the dot area with printing sponge impregnated with PS plate cleaner CL-2. Then, 150,000 sheets were printed with cleaning the ink on the plate in the same manner as above with PS plate cleaner CL-2 every 10,000 sheets until the printed number reached 145,000. A printed matter was taken out every 10,000 sheets and the dot where the plate was cleaned with PS plate cleaner CL-2 and the dot not cleaned were evaluated. The results obtained are shown in Table 5a below. Solid press life indicates the sheet number which can be printed normally without dropout occurring in solid printing and highlight press life shows the number of printed sheets reproduced by 2% dot of 175 lines/inch on the printed matter. Gradation was the difference between the above clear step number in the sensitivity evaluation and solid step number. The smaller the value, the higher is the contrast. It is apparently seen from the results in Table 5a that in the photosensitive lithographic printing plate according to the present invention, the enhancement of high contrast of the image of the printing plate can be realized while maintaining the press life by the use of the fluorine-containing polymer of the present invention in the photosensitive resin composition. Examples of thermally crosslinkable lithographic printing plate are described below. Acquisition of Binder Polymer (BP-1) Poly(p-hydroxystyrene) (trade name, Maruka Linker M S-4P) was acquired from Maruzen Petrochemical Co., Ltd. and this was used as BP-1.

After image formation, the part where touched with a bare hand was observed visually whether the image was dropped out or not. In negative type lithographic printing plate materials (G-1) to (G-4), apparent image dropout was not generated. COMPARATIVE EXAMPLE 4a A solution was prepared in the same manner as in Example 10a except that the fluorine-containing polymer used in Solution (G) in Example 10a was replaced with high polymer compound (Ra-1).

To the mixture was added 0.15 g of V-65 (a product of Wako Pure Chemical Co., Ltd.) and the mixture was stirred in nitrogen atmosphere for 2 hours with maintaining the temperature at 65°C. Further, a mixture of 4.61 g of N-(p-aminosulfonylphenyl)methacrylamide, 2.94 g of ethyl methacrylate, 0.80 g of acrylonitrile, N,N-dimethylacetamide and 0.15 g of V-65 was dropwise added to this reaction solution by means of a dropping funnel over 2 hours. After termination of the dropwise addition, the reaction mixture was stirred for further 2 hours at 65°C. After completion of the reaction, 40 g of methanol was added thereto and cooled. The mixture obtained was put in 2 liters of water with stirring the water and stirring was continued for 30 minutes. The precipitated product was filtered and dried, thereby 15 g of white solid was obtained. This copolymer 1 was found to have a weight average molecular weight (polystyrene standard) of 53,000 by gel permeation chromatography. Preparation of Substrate An aluminum plate (quality of material 1050) having a thickness of 0.30 mm was washed with trichloroethylene and degreased, then subjected to brush-graining treatment using a nylon brush and a suspension of 400 mesh pumice stone and water, and the surface of the plate was thoroughly washed with water. The etching was effected by immersing the plate in a 25% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution at 45°C for 9 seconds, the plate was further washed with water, then further immersed in a 20% nitric acid aqueous solution for 20 seconds followed by washing with water. The etching amount of the grained surface at this time was about 3 g/m 2 . The plate was anodically oxidized by direct current with a 7% sulfuric acid aqueous solution being an electrolytic solution at electric density of 15 A/dm 2 . The oxide film obtained was 3 g/m 2 . The plate was then washed with water and dried. Undercoating solution having the following composition was coated on this aluminum plate and dried at 90°C for 1 minute. The coating amount after drying was 10 mg/m 2 . Undercoating Solution β-Alanine 0.5 g Methanol 95 g Water 5 g Further, the plate was treated with a 2.5 wt% aqueous solution of sodium silicate 30°C for 10 seconds. Undercoating solution having the following composition was coated on this aluminum plate and dried at 80°C for 15 seconds, thereby a substrate was obtained. The coating amount after drying was 15 mg/m 2 . Undercoating Solution The compound shown below 0.3 g Methanol 100 g Water 1 g EXAMPLE 14a The following photosensitive solution 1 was prepared. This photosensitive solution 1 was coated on the above-prepared substrate in a coating amount of 1.8 g/m 2 , and a lithographic printing plate was obtained. Photosensitive Solution 1 Fluorine-containing polymer (Pa-1) 0.03 g Above-prepared copolymer 1 0.75 g m-Cresol/p-cresol novolak resin (m/p ratio: 6/4, weight average molecular weight: 3,500, 0.5 wt% of unreacted cresol was contained) 0.25 g p-Toluenesulfonic acid 0.003 g Tetrahydrophthalic anhydride 0.03 g A cyanine dye (having the following structure) 0.017 g A dye obtained by replacing the counter ion of Victoria Pure Blue BOH with 1-naphthalenesulfonic acid anion 0.015 g Megafac F177 (fluorine-based nonionic surfactant, manufactured by Dainippon Chemicals and Ink Co., Ltd.) 0.05 g γ-Butyrolactone 10 g Methyl ethyl ketone 10 g 1-Methoxy-2-propanol 1 g The developing stability against scratch of the lithographic printing plate obtained was evaluated. The results obtained are shown in Table 7a below. Developing Stability against Scratch The lithographic printing plate obtained was exposed using a semiconductor laser having output of 500 mW, wavelength of 830 nm and beam diameter of 17 µm (1/e 2 ), at main scanning rate of 5 m/sec. The scratching test was effected using a continuous load-scratching tester model SB62 (manufactured by Shinto Kagaku Co. Ltd.) by sticking a No. 5 filter paper manufactured by Advantec Toyo Co., Ltd. on the square flat surface of 1 cm 2 of the scratch jig which makes in contact with the plate, applying 100 g of load thereto, and effecting scratching at a rate of 6 cm/sec, and then developing the plate using a developing solution DP-4 (dilution: 1/8, manufactured by Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd.). The evaluation was based on the following criteria: C: Photosensitive film at the part scratched was completely dissolved. B: Photosensitive film at the part scratched was partially dissolved. A: Photosensitive film at the part scratched was not dissolved at all. Example No. Developing Stability against Scratch Example 14a A Example 15a A Example 16a A Comparative Example 5a C EXAMPLES 15a AND 16a, COMPARATIVE EXAMPLE 5a Lithographic printing plates were prepared in the same manner as in Example 14a except for using fluorine-containing polymers Pa-2 and Pa-5 were used in place of Pa-1. Comparative Example 5a did not contain the fluorine-containing polymer according to the present invention. The developing stability against scratch of each of the lithographic printing plates obtained was evaluated in the same manner as in Example 14a. The results obtained are shown in Table 7a above. It can be seen from the results in Table 7a that developing stability against scratch before development is conspicuously improved by the addition of the specific polymer. A photosensitive resin composition containing the first fluorine-containing polymer was given image-forming property of high contrast, satisfying antihalation, safelight tolerance and development latitude without decreasing the sensitivity by the addition of a specific fluorine-containing polymer.

Claims: A photosensitive resin composition containing a high molecular compound having at least a) a fluoro aliphatic group, and b) a group represented by formula -L-P (wherein L represents a divalent organic group connected to the skeleton of the high molecular compound, and P represents an aromatic group having a carboxyl group at the ortho-position).
