Abstract
Abstract A silver halide photographic light-sensitive material is disclosed, which is suitable for contact printing in photomechanical process and capable of being handled in day-light room. The light-sensitive material comprising a support; a silver halide emulsion layer being provided on a surface of the support and containing a tetrazolium compound or a hydrazine compound; a layer containing a tin oxide or an indium oxide and being provided on the surface of the support opposite to the surface the emulsion layer provided thereon; and a layer containing a homopolymer or a copolymer comprising sodium styrenesulfonate, and being provided directly or through an intermediate layer on the surface of the metal oxide containing layer further to the support. The light-sensitive material is excellent in reverse-text quality and inhibited in formation of pin-holes.
