Abstract
Abstract Polymeric compounds having recurring units of the formula: WHEREIN: X is hydrogen or methyl, A is C1-C5 alkylene and R is alkyl or aryl, ARE DESCRIBED FOR USE IN PHOTOGRAPHIC SILVER HALIDE MATERIAL. The compounds reduce the formation of sludge and pressure marks upon processing, especially processing at elevated temperature, of the exposed elements.
