ABSTRACT:
A process for preparing a mold for relief printing masters, said mold having an adhesive silicone surface, is provided comprising depositing a particulate material in image configuration on a suitable substrate, contacting said substrate with a second member comprising a substrate with an adhesive coating of a silicone gum curable to an adhesive elastomeric condition such that the adhesive gum is in contact with the image material, separating the members whereby the silicone layer splits in the nonimaged areas and is prevented from splitting by the transfer of the particulate image material to the second member in the image areas, and curing the silicone gum on the first member to an adhesive elastomeric condition to provide a mold for printing masters. The process for preparing the printing master comprises the additional steps of filling the submerged portions of said mold with a liquid but hardenable material suitable for master imaging, contacting said liquid with a suitable master substrate, hardening the liquid material and removing the resultant printing master.
