Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a photosensitive silver halide material for obtaining black-and-white half-tone, dot or line, images having improved resistance to pressure desensitization.
  • Photosensitive silver halide materials are commonly used in photolithographic industry to obtain half-tone, dot or line, high contrast images.
  • An example of high contrast photographic element having white reflective support is a phototypesetting material intended to produce black type character image on a white background.
  • An example of high contrast photographic element having a transparent support is lith film, so called because it is used as contact transparency for exposing lithographic printing plates. The illusion that some areas of a printed image are of intermediate density is created by the viewer's inability to resolve tiny dots or lines of maximum density and background areas of minimum density that separate them. Such images are referred to as half-tone images.
  • Pressure sensitivity of the silver halide photographic material can be reduced by the incorporation of various addenda, such as, for example, the addenda described in Research Disclosure , Vol 176, December 1978, Item 17643, Section VI, K; Research Disclosure , Vol 184, August 1979, Item 18431, Section II, H; Research Disclosure , Vol 308, December 1989, Item 308,119, Section VI, K-L; and E.J.Birr, Stabilization of Silver Halide Emulsion, Focal Press, London, 1974, pp. 133-134. Research Disclosure is published by Kenneth Mason Publications, Ltd., Emsworth, Hampshire P010 7DD, England. However, such addenda often affect photographic characteristics without having a substantial effect on pressure sensitivity.
