ABSTRACT:
By exposing a photopolymer layer to radiation under the surface of a liquid medium such as water that does not affect the photopolymer solubility characteristic, disproportionately faster exposure time with lower energy cost and heat dissipation giving longer life to equipment and phototools and reducing production costs. The water additionally synergetically reacts as a coolant dissipating heat and as a release agent permitting photo bearing images to be in direct contact with the photopolymer while being radiated without accumulation of unwanted photopolymer to scratch the image or decrease its resolution.
