Abstract

PHOSPHORESCENT RADIOGRAPHIC SCREENS COMPRISING A PHOSPHOR HAVING A HOST MATRIX OF AT LEAST ONE HEAVY METAL ION HAVING A PHYSICAL DENSITY GREATER THAN ABOUT 4.1 GM./CM.3 DISPERSED IN A BINDER COMPRISING A COMBINATION OF (1) A COPOLYMER OF ETHYL ACRYLATE WITH A HALO ALKYL VINYL ETHER AND (2) AN ALKYL METHACRYLATE POLYMER, EACH IN A WEIGHT RATIO RANGE OF FROM ABOUT 2 TO 1 TO ABOUT 50 TO 1 RESPECTIVELY ARE DISCLOSED. PARTICULARLY EFFECTIVE PHOSPHORS INCLUDE THOSE WHOSE EMISSION IS MORE THAN HALF IN THE ULTRAVIOLET REGION SUCH AS GADOLIMIUM ACTIVATED YITRIUM OXIDE, EUROPIUM ACTIVATED BARIUM STRONTIUM SULFATE, LEAD ACTIVATED BARIUM SULFATE AND RARE EARTH ACTIVATED HEAVY METAL ION PHOPHERS. THE BINDER IS TYPICALLY REPRESENTED BY COMBINATION OF (1) N-BUTYL METHACRYLATE RESINS AND (2) HALOALKYL VINYL ETHERS WHOSE ALKYL MOIETY CONTAINS 1 TO 6 CARBONS, E.G. DRY RUBBERS OF ELASTOMERS. SAID SCREENS, WHEN COMBINED WITH LIGHT SENSITIVE RADIOGRAPHIC ELEMENTS, EXHIBIT IMPROVED OPTICAL AND PHYSICAL CHARACTERTICS. THE SCREENS CAN FURTHER COMPRISE A SUPPORT CONTAINING A 5(H)FURANONE ULTRA-VIOLET LIGHT ABSORBER, E.G. 5-BENZYLIDENE - 3 - CARBAMOYL-4-PHENYL-2(5H)FURANONE. SILVER HALIDE EMULSIONS AND ELEMENTS USEFUL IN COMBINATION WITH THE ABOVE SCREENS CAN BE CHEMICALLY SENSITIZED, E.G. WITH NOBLE METAL SUNSITIZERS ALONE OR IN COMBINATION WITH SULFUR OR SELENIUM SENSITIZERS. THEY CAN CONTAIN SPECTRAL SENSITIZERS, INCORPORATED COLOR-FORMING COUPLERS, INCORPORATED DEVELOPING AGENTS, ANTIFOGGANTS, HARDENERS, PLASTICIZERS, COATING AIDS, VINYL POLYMERS, AND OTHER SUITABLE PHOTOGRAPHIC ADDENDA SUCH AS DESCRIBED IN U.S. PAT. 3,297,446 OF DUNN ISSUED JAN. 10, 4967 (COLUMNS 4 TO 9).

Cl. 250-65 R No Drawing. 25 Pages Specification Phosphorescent radiographic screens comprising a phosphor having a host matrix of at least one heavy metal ion having a physical density greater than about 4.1 gm./cm. dispersed in a binder comprising a combination of (l) a copolymer of ethyl acrylate with a halo alkyl vinyl ether and (2) an alkyl methacrylate polymer, each in a weight ratio range of from about 2 to 1 to about 50 to 1 respectively are disclosed.
