Photographic dye diffusion transfer process
Abstract
Abstract FOR THE PRODUCTION OF A COLORED IMAGE BY THE DYE DIFFUSION TRANSFER PRROCESS OF MULTILAYER MATERIAL IS USED WHICH CONTAINS AN IMAGE-RECEIVING LAYER ON A TRANSPARENT SUPPORT, AND A LIGHT-SENSITIVE, DYE-GIVING COMBINATION, AND BETWEEN THEM A LIGHT-IMPERMEABLE BUT DIFFUSION-PERMEABLE LAYER AND STRIPPING MATERIAL TO ENABLE STRIPPING OFF THE IMAGE-RECEIVING LAYER. THE LIGHT-SENSITIVE ELEMENT IS EXPOSED IMAGE-WISE, THEN BROUGHT INTO CONTACT WITH A PRROCESSING COMPOSITION THAT CAUSES IT TO PRODUCE A DYE IMAGE THAT DIFFUSES INTO THE IMAGE-RECEIVING LAYER THEREIN FORMING A TRANSFER IMAGE VISIBLE THROUGH THE TRANSPARENT SUPPORT. WHEN IT IS OBSERVED THAT THE TRANSFER IMAGE IS ACCEPTABLE THE IMAGE-RECEIVING LAYER IS STRIPPED AWAY FROM THE LIGHT-SENSITIVE COMBINATION.
