There was some discussion a few months ago about diazo resist.
I recently was in an art supply shop and saw a "diazo emulsion" kit for
making a direct process silk screen, so the process is there. I have no
idea what the chemistry might be, except that some of the old Kodak photo
resists were natural or synthetic polyisoprene rubber using a UV absorbing
diazo free radical intiator.
