Abstract

Abstract In a process for the preparation of a multilayered photographic material in which the layers are applied in at least two stages and the material is dried and wound up in between the stages, sticking of the semi-finished preparations does not occur if the uppermost layer applied in the first stage contains polymer particles soluble in alkali and having an average particle diameter from 0.2 to 5.0 μm.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 108 words
A silver halide color photographic element comprising a support, on the support at least one red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing at least one non-diffusible cyan coupler, at least one green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing at least one non-diffusible magenta coupler, at least one blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing at least one yellow coupler and at least one interlayer which is not the layer of the photographic element furthermost from the support said interlayer containing polymer particles soluble in alkali in a quantity of from 20 to 200 mg/m 2 of the photographic element and having an average particle diameter of from 0.5 to 3.0 μm.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 108 words
A silver halide color photographic element comprising a support, on the support at least one red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing at least one non-diffusible cyan coupler, at least one green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing at least one non-diffusible magenta coupler, at least one blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing at least one yellow coupler and at least one interlayer which is not the layer of the photographic element furthermost from the support said interlayer containing polymer particles soluble in alkali in a quantity of from 20 to 200 mg/m 2 of the photographic element and having an average particle diameter of from 0.5 to 3.0 μm.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 22 words
