Patent ID: 8715906

Claim:
A printing form comprising: a) a substrate b) a first polymer layer disposed on the substrate wherein the first polymer layer comprises i) an elastomeric polymer; ii) an initiator; and iii) a monomer selected from non-fluorinated acrylate or methacrylate monomers; c) a second polymer layer disposed on the first polymer layer wherein the second polymer layer comprises i) an elastomeric polymer; ii) a photoinitiator; and iii) a monomer selected from a non-fluorinated acrylate or methacrylate monomers; wherein either the first or the second polymer layer, but not both, is hydrophilic, and the other polymer layer is hydrophobic, and only the polymer layer that is hydrophobic, but not both, comprises fluorinated additives, in an amount sufficient to render the layer hydrophobic.
