Abstract
Ionomeric polymers are provided which are dispersible in aqueous solvents yet which cross-link with ethylenically unsaturated monomers to form matrices having relatively low solubility in such solvents. The polymers can be incorporated into photocurable composition for use, for example, in photocurable printing elements.
