Abstract
A radiation thermally imageable, solid toner addressable article comprises a substrate having on at least one surface thereof a layer comprising a) a solid binder which can be converted to a supercooled liquid upon heating and subsequent cooling to room temperature, b) a dye which absorbs radiation (at the wavelength of the imaging device,, e.e., ultraviolet, visible [especially the red], and infrared wavelengths) and converts infrared radiation to thermal energy, and c) a fluorinated surfactant. A directly thermally addressable article does not require the radiation absorbable dye.
