Abstract

A process for the production of a photosensitive recording material for producing relief printing plates is described, in which a photosensitive layer is laminated with a composite element comprising a protective cover sheet, a release layer and, if required, a further layer, wherein the surface of the uppermost layer of the composite element or the surface of the photosensitive layer is subjected to a corona treatment immediately before contact. As a result of the corona treatment, the adhesion of the applied layer is substantially increased.
