Support for photographic paper having electron beam cured resin layer

Claim 1

A support for photographic paper which comprises a sheet of paper coated with a composition consisting essentially of an unsaturated bond-containing electron beam-polymerizable organic compound (A) and an inorganic white pigment (B), wherein the composition is subjected to electron beam irradiation for curing, wherein said unsaturated bond-containing organic compound (A) and said inorganic white pigment (B) are present in a weight ratio (A)/(B) of from 3/1 to 1/9, and said unsaturated bond-containing organic compound (A) comprises an unsaturated organic compound (C) containing two carbon-to-carbon double bonds per molecule and an unsaturated organic compound (D) containing three carbon-to-carbon double bonds per molecule, and the weight ratio (C)/(D) is from 49/51 to 1/99, wherein the unsaturated organic compound (C) is an ether-type acrylate represented by the formula ##STR16## wherein R 1 and R 2 each represents --H, --OH, an alkyl group containing from 1 6 carbon atoms, an alkoxy group containing from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, or an aryl group, and is 1 to 15, and wherein the unsaturated organic compound (D) is an ether-type triacrylate represented by the formula ##STR17## wherein R 1 , R 2 and R 3 each represents --H, --OH, --CH 2 OH, an alkyl group containing from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, an alkoxy group containing from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, or an aryl group, and l+m+n is from 1 to 20.
