Abstract

See full text

Used flexographic printing members and unused flexographic printing precursors can be recycled for reuse. This recycling can be achieved by melting a laser-engraveable layer of a flexographic printing precursor or a laser-engraved layer of a flexographic printing member to form a melt, and reforming the melt into a new laser-engravable flexographic printing precursor. The laser-engraveable layer or laser-engraved layer comprises one or more thermoplastic elastomeric nanocrystalline polyolefins that can also be mixed with non-nanocrystalline polymers.
