Abstract:
Disclosed is a two-component diazotype material comprising a support and a light-sensitive layer containing (a) at least one diazonium compound derived from p-phenylenediamine and carrying a basic heterocyclic radical in the 4-position and ether groups in the 2- and 5-positions, (b) a coupler component, and (c) an acid stabilizer, the diazonium compound being present in the form of a benzenesulfonate or toluenesulfonate. The disclosed materials have a good storability and are easily developed.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a two-component diazotype material comprising a support and one or several light-sensitive layers, each of which contains at least one light-sensitive diazonium salt, a coupler component and an acid stabilizer, and at least one of the layers contains a compound which absorbs light in the ultraviolet spectral region. The light-absorbing compound is present in the form of a dye salt of at least one benzothiazole which is converted into its leuco base under the action of an alkaline medium. It thus partially or completely loses its absorptivity toward radiation in the long-wave ultraviolet and short-wave visible spectral regions. The light-absorbing compound comprises a benzothiazole, in particular according to the general formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 denotes hydrogen, alkyl or aralkyl,R.sub.2 denotes hydrogen or an optionally substituted alkyl, aralkyl, aryl, pyridylalkyl, carbalkyl, carboxyalkyl, carboxyaryl, carbamoyl, or sulfamoyl radical, orR.sub.1 and R.sub.2 denote members of a heterocyclic radical, andR.sub.3 denotes hydrogen or alkyl.
Abstract:
This invention relates to an improvement in a diazotype material comprising, in the light-sensitive layer, a diazo component and a coupling component which yields a black dyestuff image, the improvement that the diazo component is a 2,5-dialkoxy-4-morpholino-benzene diazonium salt and the coupling component is a combination of(a) 6-methoxy-2-hydroxy-3-naphthoic acid-N(.omega.-aminoalkyl)-amide as a blue coupler,(b) a 2-alkyl- or 2-aryl-1,3-dihydroxybenzene or a cyanoacetoamide as a yellow coupler, and(c) at least one compound of the general formula ##STR1## wherein X is zero, =S, =SO, or =SO.sub.2, as a reddish-brown coupler, the molar ratio of blue coupler to yellow coupler being in the range of about (0.7 to 0.9):1, and the molar ratio of blue coupler to reddish-brown coupler being in the range of about (6 to 12):1.
