| abstract |
The present invention relates to a heat-sensitive lithographic printing plate requiring no on-press development or no water development, which provides clear printed image, has sufficient printing wear resistance, and has improved scumming, more specifically to a heat-sensitive lithographic printing plate comprising, on a water-resistant support, an image-forming layer containing a thermoplastic resin, a water-soluble polymer compound, and at least one selected from a compound of the following formulae (1), (2), (3) and (4). The present invention also relates to a direct heat-sensitive lithographic printing plate by which the generation of sticking phenomenon has been reduced. |
