Abstract
Abstract Described is a photographic support material for black-and-white and color photographic emulsions, which support material is coated at least on one side with a layer containing a white pigment ad a binder component that predominantly includes unsaturated organic compounds and that is hardened by means of high energy radiation, while the white pigment, which is preferably a titanium oxide or titanium mixed oxide, carries an inorganic surface deposit which consists of oxides or hydrated oxides that make up at least about 2% by weight of the total pigment. The oxides and hydrated oxides include those of aluminum, silicon, zinc, magnesium, tin, zirconium, antimony or alkaline-earth metals.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim
154 words
Photographic support material for black-and-white and color photographic emulsions comprising: support material including a substrate having on at least one side a coating including a pigment material and a binder component, said binder component being produced from a composition containing at least one unsaturated compound, the double bonds of which undero a polymerizing reaction to be hardened by means of high energy ionizing radiation, said pigment material includes a white pigment selected from the group consisting of titanium dioxide, a titanium mixed oxide, or a white pigment-like titanate, said white pigment having an inorganic surface coating different from said white pigment, said inorganic surface coating of the white pigment includes an oxide or hydrated oxide of aluminum, silicon, zinc, magnesium, tin, zirconium, antimony or an alkaline earth metal, or mixtures of these oxides and hydrated oxides, and said inorganic surface coating accounts for at least about 2% by weight of the total pigment material.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
