Abstract
The invention provides a lithographic printable plastic film. A plastic film is coated with a coating formulation which allows lithographic printing on plastic films. The coating composition comprises an acrylic binder, specifically a blend of acrylic polymer and ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer, at least one particulate filler, specifically silica, calcium carbonate, clay, talc, titanium dioxide and mixtures thereof, a surfactant and, optionally, an ultraviolet stabilizer. The coating composition is applied to a plastic film for lithographic printing.
