Abstract

Abstract Photographic elements are disclosed containing a hydrophilic colloid layer hardened with a compound having two vinylsulfonyl radicals coupled through a divalent hydrocarbon radical chosen from the group consisting of (1) an aliphatic radical having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, (2) --X--Y--X-- in which X is an alkylene group having 1 or 2 carbon atoms and Y is a phenylene group and (3) a phenyl-substituted methylene group. The compounds may be utilized generally in hardenable hydrophilic colloid compositions. Except for those compounds incorporating an alkylene divalent hydrocarbon radical, the hardeners are new compounds. .Iadd.

Independent Claim 87 words
A photographic element comprising a support and at least one radiation-sensitive hydrophilic colloid layer containing silver halide and at least one hydrophilic colloid layer hardened with a compound having two vinylsulfonyl radicals coupled through a divalent hydrocarbon radical chosen from the group consisting of: a. .[.an unsubstituted alkyl or.]. an unsubstituted alkylene radical having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, b. --X--Y--X-- in which X is an unsubstituted alkylene group having 1 or 2 carbon atoms and Y is an unsubstituted phenylene group, and c. phenyl-substituted methylene.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 87 words
A photographic element comprising a support and at least one radiation-sensitive hydrophilic colloid layer containing silver halide and at least one hydrophilic colloid layer hardened with a compound having two vinylsulfonyl radicals coupled through a divalent hydrocarbon radical chosen from the group consisting of: a. .[.an unsubstituted alkyl or.]. an unsubstituted alkylene radical having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, b. --X--Y--X-- in which X is an unsubstituted alkylene group having 1 or 2 carbon atoms and Y is an unsubstituted phenylene group, and c. phenyl-substituted methylene.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 33 words
A photographic element according to claim 1 in which said layer contains from 0.5 to 6 percent by weight of said hardener based on the weight of hardenable colloid present in said layer.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 33 words
