Definitions
- ABSTRACT A diazotype material for use in making copies of X-ray films which comprises a support carrying a light-sensitive layer containing at least one diazonium compound, a coupler and a non-light-sensitive ultra-violet absorber, the ultra-violet absorber being effective in screening out radiation in the range of 3,400 to 4,000 A, being transparent to all radiation at or above 4,300 A and being present in an amount such as to give a background absorbance of at least 0.9 at 4,000 A.
- the present invention is based upon the discovery that it is possible to produce copies of X-ray films acceptable to the medical profession by using a two-component diazotype material which comprises a support carrying a light-sensitive layer containing at least one diazonium compound, a coupler and a non-light sensitive ultra-violet absorber, the ultra-violet absorber being effective in screening out radiation in the range of 3,400 to 4,000 A, being transparent to all radiation at or above 4,300 A and being present in an amount such as to give a background absorbance of at least 0.9 at 4,000 A.
- a two component diazotype material for use in making from microfilms copies from which further copies can be made has been proposed in British Specification No. 1094374.
- This material contains an ultra-violet absorber which is effective in screening out radiation having a wave length in the range of 3,400 3,900 A, is transparent to radiation of wave length at and above 4,000 A, and is present in an amount giving a maximum background absorbance of 0.6 at 4,000 A.
- U.V. absorber which can be utilized in the diazotype material according to the invention is 7-diethylamino-4- methyl-coumarin which is on sale as an optical whitening agent under the Registered Trade Mark Coumalux.
- Diazotype material containing this U.V. absorber and with the lightsensitive layer supported on a transparent film backing has been found to have, in the bleached and developed condition, an absorbance of 1.52 at 3,400 A, a peak absorbance of 1.9 at 3,720 A, an absorbance of 1.18 at 4,000 A, an absorbance of 0.08 at 4,300 A and an absorbance of0.06 at 4,400 A.
- U.V. absorber Another example of U.V. absorber which can be used is the coumarin derivative sold by ClBA under the Trade Mark U- VlTEX SWR."
- Diazotype material containing this U.V. absorber in its light-sensitive layer has, in the bleached and developed condition, an absorbance considerably in excess of 2 in the range 3,400-4,000 A, an absorbance of 0.2 at 4,300 A and an absorbance of 0. 16 at 4,400 A.
- the light-sensitive layer of the diazotype material according to the invention may be transparent to radiation of wavelength 4,400 A or more. It will normally include in its light-sensitive layer two or more diazonium compounds having overlapping absorption curves. Preferably the background absorbance of the light-sensitive layer does not exceed 2.0.
- the support may normally be a transparent film of, for example, a polyester, such as Melinex (Registered Trade Mark) or cellulose acetate because the medical profession prefers to examine X-ray photographs as transparencies. Adequate copies of X-ray films can, however, be produced on diazotype material having a paper support.
- Suitable couplers are: 2,3-naphthalenediol; naphthalene 2,3-dihydroxy-6-sulphinic acid; resorcinol; 4,4'-diresorcinol, acetoacetanilide; acetoacet-o-toluidide; chlororesorcinol; N,N-bis-B-hydroxyethyl-2-hydroxy-3-naphthoamide; N-( 2 '-methylphenyl )-2- hydroxy-3-naphthoamide; N-y-morpholino-n-propyl-Z- hydroxy-3-naphthoamide and N,N-bis-B-hydroxyethyl-2- hydroxy-3-naphthoamide.
- the coating weight of the sensitizer was adjusted to give a maximum optical transmission density of 1.5.
- the background absorbance of the material was approximately 1.06.
- This diazotype material gives good reproduction of X-ray films of the silver type.
- Example 2 The procedure of Example l was repeated except that an equivalent amount of cellulose acetate propionate was utilised in the lacquer in place of the cellulose acetate butyrate.
- the background absorbance of the diazotype material was 1-diazo-4-(N,N-dimethylamino)-benzene i l 1 ()6 fluoroborate borate 0.6 appto y ldiazo-3-methyl-4-ethylamino-benzene fluoroborate EXAMPLE 3 l-diazo-2,5-diethoxy-4-morpholino-benzene
- the lacquer and the sensitizer set out in Example 1 were 5 lfgafig 3:3: mixed together in the ratio of l l by volume and coated on the polyester film. After drying at approximately 120 C.,'the coating had a thickness of approximately 0.0003 inch.
- the EXAMPLE9 background absorbance was greater than 0.9. l
