Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 44 words
The combination of claim 1 in which the binder is gelatin and the material to be emulsified is first dissolved in a volatile water-immisicible short chain aliphatic solvent along with the oil former, and the solution thus formed is emulsified into the gelatin emulsion.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 13 words
The combination of claim 2 in which the organic solvent is methylene chloride.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 13 words
The combination of claim 2 in which the organic solvent is diethyl carbonate.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 43 words
The combination of claim 1 in which the binder is gelatin, the material to be emulsified is soluble in aqueous alkali, and is dissolved in an aqueous alkaline solution along with the oil former and the resulting solution emulsified into the gelatin emulsion.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 29 words
In a photographic gelatin emulsion containing emulsified photographic additive particles and an oil former that stabilizes the emulsion, the improvement according to which the oil former has the formula:
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 16 words
