20731-880 ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The invention relates to a process for the electrochemical roughening of a plate of aluminum or alloy thereof which is useful for a printing plate support, comprising the steps of (A) immersing the plate in an aqueous mixed electrolyte solution containing (i) from about 0.3 to 4% by weight of HNO3 and (ii) at least one further inorganic electrolyte comprising an inorganic fluorine compound which is present in the form of an acid or an alkali metal salt and which contains an anion comprised of fluorine and at least one further element, such that said mixed electrolyte solution contains from about 0.05 to 5% by weight of said fluorine compound; and (B) applying an alternating current to the plate to produce a uniformly roughened offset printing plate support. The very uniformly roughened support materials are used in the production of offset printing plates.
