A dye-donor element for thermal dye transfer comprising a support having on one side thereof a dye dispersed in a polymeric binder, and wherein the polymeric binder comprises a mixed cellulose ester and the dye-donor element contains a colorless, nonpolymeric material for increasing dye transfer efficiency having the following formula: ##STR1## wherein both R groups represent --CO.sub.2 J or --O.sub.2 CJ and are located either ortho or meta to each other; and each J independently represents a substituted or unsubstituted phenyl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted carbomonocyclic or carbobicyclic ring having from about 5 to about 12 carbon atoms, with the proviso that when either or both of J is substituted, then the total number of substituent carbon atoms in each J group is about 8 or less.
摘要:
A dye-receiving element for thermal dye transfer process and assemblage comprises a compression layer between the support and the dye image-receiving layer which has a greater compressibility than either the support or the receiving layer and being coated at a coverage of at least 2.0 g/m.sup.2. In a preferred embodiment, the compression layer has a compression modulus of less than 350 mega Pascals. Use of the compression layer minimizes image defects.
摘要:
A dye-donor element for thermal dye transfer comprising a support having on one side thereof a dye layer and on the opposite side thereof a slipping layer comprising a lubricating material, and wherein a hydrophilic dye-barrier layer is located between the dye layer and the support, and a subbing layer is located between the dye-barrier layer and the support. The dye-barrier layer prevents wrong-way transfer of dye into the support which provides improved dye transfer densities. The subbing layer improves adhesion between the dye-barrier layer and the support.
摘要:
Photographic assemblages and processes are described employing positive-working redox dye-releasers and a processing composition containing a ketal blocked quinone which is soluble therein. After processing, when the pH is lowered, the free quinone is released for reaction with residual electron transfer agent present in the assemblage to prevent it from reacting with the dye releaser, which would otherwise cause further dye release. D.sub.min stability is thereby improved.
