Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 20
Claim 1
Independent Claim 94 words
A photographic material comprising hydrophobic support having thereon at least one silver halide emulsion layer, a first subbing layer composed of a copolymer of a dienic monomer, and a second subbing layer comprising a hydrophilic layer containng gelatin and water-soluble methyl cellulose having a degree of substitution of 0.5 to 2.6 or gelatin and water-soluble polyvinyl alcohol having a degree of hydrolysis of 60 to 97 mole % on the first subbing layer, wherein said copolymer, said methyl cellulose and said polyvinyl alcohol are added in amounts sufficient to prevent blocking of photographic materials.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 94 words
A photographic material comprising hydrophobic support having thereon at least one silver halide emulsion layer, a first subbing layer composed of a copolymer of a dienic monomer, and a second subbing layer comprising a hydrophilic layer containng gelatin and water-soluble methyl cellulose having a degree of substitution of 0.5 to 2.6 or gelatin and water-soluble polyvinyl alcohol having a degree of hydrolysis of 60 to 97 mole % on the first subbing layer, wherein said copolymer, said methyl cellulose and said polyvinyl alcohol are added in amounts sufficient to prevent blocking of photographic materials.
