Abstract
The present invention relates to a high clarity water sensitive carboxylated nitrile rubber composition which is particularly useful in making photopolymer formulations for printing plates utilized in flexographic printing applications. The present invention more specifically discloses a high clarity water sensitive carboxylated nitrile rubber composition which is comprised of (a) a carboxylated nitrile rubber which is comprised of repeat units which are derived from about 30 weight percent to about 60 weight percent 1,3-butadiene, from about 30 weight percent to about 50 weight percent acrylonitrile, and from about 10 weight percent to about 20 weight percent methacrylic acid, and (b) from about 1 to about 10 phr of at least one organic acid which contains at least three carboxyl groups. The carboxylated nitrile rubber of this invention will typically have a Mooney ML-4 viscosity of less than about 80. In applications where improved scorch safety is required the rubber composition will also contain from about 0.1 phr to about 7 phr of at least one oligomerized fatty acid.
