Abstract

Abstract Photographic elements are disclosed containing a hydrophilic colloid layer hardened with a compound having two vinylsulfonyl radicals coupled through a divalent hydrocarbon radical chosen from the group consisting of (1) an aliphatic radical having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, (2) -X-Y-X- in which X is an alkylene group having 1 or 2 carbon atoms and Y is a phenylene group and (3) a phenyl-substituted methylene group. The compounds may be utilized generally in hardenable hydrophilic colloid compositions. Except for those compounds incorporating an alkylene divalent hydrocarbon radical, the hardeners are new compounds.

Claim 3
Dependent Claim 33 words
A photographic element according to claim 1 in which said layer contains from 0.5 to 6 percent by weight of said hardener based on the weight of hardenable colloid present in said layer.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 33 words
A photographic element according to claim 1 in which said layer contains from 1 to 3 percent by weight of said hardener based on the weight of hardenable colloid present in said layer.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 13 words
A photographic element according to claim 1 in which said layer contains gelatin.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 14 words
A photographic element according to claim 1 in which X is an unsubstituted methylene.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 16 words
A photographic element according to claim 1 in which said hydrophilic colloid is hardened with 1,3-bis(vinylsulfonyl)propane.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 17 words
A photographic element according to claim 1 in which said hydrocarbon radical is an unsubstituted alkylene radical.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 79 words
A photographic element comprising a support and at least one radiation-sensitive silver halide-containing gelatin layer hardened with a compound having the structural formula: CH2 CHSO2-A-SO2CH CH2 in which A is chosen from the group consisting of a. an unsubstituted alkyl or an unsubstituted alkylene radical having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms; b. -X-Y-X- in which X is an unsubstituted alkylene group having 1 or 2 carbon atoms and Y is an unsubstituted phenylene group; and c. phenyl-substituted methylene.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 79 words
