Patent ID: 8758975

Claim:
A lithographic printing plate precursor comprising a support and one or more layers, wherein one of the one or more layers is a photosensitive layer comprising an initiator compound, a polymerizable compound and a binder polymer, and a layer being in contact with the support of the one or more layers comprises a copolymer containing a repeating unit having a zwitterionic structure and a repeating unit having a structure capable of interacting with a surface of the support, wherein the zwitterionic structure is a structure represented by the following formula (I), (ii) or (iii): wherein R 1 and R 2 each independently represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an alkenyl group, an alkynyl group, an aryl group or a heterocyclic group, or R 1 and R 2 may be combined with each other to form a ring structure, R 3 to R 7 each independently represents a hydrogen atom or a substituent, provided that at least one of R 3 to R 7 represents a site connecting to a main chain or side chain of the polymer, L 1 , L 2 and L 3 each independently represents a connecting group, A represents a structure having an anion, B represents a structure having a cation, and * represents a site connecting to a main chain or side chain of the polymer; and wherein the structure capable of interacting with a surface of the support is a phosphonic acid structure, a phosphonate structure, a phosphoric acid ester structure or a phosphoric acid ester salt structure; wherein the photosensitive layer is the layer being in contact with the support.
