Metal photographic plate comprising a silver halide and process
Abstract
Abstract A metallic base photographic plate having images adherently and preferably conductively bonded to the metallic support is produced by exposing a copy medium comprising silver halide on a superficially roughened metallic support wherein the photoconductor is substantially photoconductively insulated from the metallic support, and contacting this copy medium with chemically reactive image-forming materials, such as a physical developer. A preferred process is one utilizing a copy medium capable of being rapidly processed and having a layer of a photoconductor-binder emulsion on a roughened metallic support and a physical developer capable of producing an image adherently and conductively bonded to the metallic support. The plate produced by this invention is useful as a printing plate, name plate, printed circuit and the like.
