Abstract

See full text

The invention is directed toward a base material for aluminum offset printing plates having improved heat stability comprising an aluminum alloy consisting of from about 0.2 to about 0.6% by weight of iron, less than about 0.25% by weight silicon and copper combined, from about 0.1 to about 0.3% by weight manganese and the remainder being aluminum and trace production impurities, said base material further characterized as containing secondary precipitates in the form of phases of the Al Mn Si: Al Fe: Al Mn type which bear a ratio to one another of from about 1:1:2 to about 1:1:3, the mean particle size being from about 0.25 to about 0.010 micron with a maximum particle size of less than about 0.3 micron and further containing a precipitation structure with a degree of dispersion of less than about 50 phases per cubic micron and a process for producing such material. The sheet material according to this invention may be uniformly roughened in either HCl or HNO.sub.3 electrolyte baths under very similar process parameters.
