    摘要: Polymers containing polyvinylidene halides are generally used as a subbing or anchoring layer between a polyester film base and a gelatin layer containing halides or other silver compounds. It has been found that the silver and silver compound containing gelatin layer can be separated cleanly from the polyester base with attendant removal of the polyvinylidene halide containing polymer from both the gelatin fractions and the polyester fraction by suitable treatment of the photographic film (whether exposed or unexposed) in polar aprotic solvents; somewhat less polar solvents comprising cyclic compounds taken from the class of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, ethers, sulfides, and ketones; and mixtures of polar aprotic solvents such as sulfoxides or amides in combination with the cyclic solvents as cosolvents. These solvents dissolve the polyvinylidene containing polymer while not affecting materially either the polyester base or the silver compound or silver metal containing gelatin layer. Of this group of solvents the polar aprotic solvents are the preferred species; mixtures of polar aprotic solvents and polar cyclic compounds being preferred next; and cyclic organic compounds which are less polar being the least preferred in view of the relatively high temperature required for suitable action. The preferred solvents are effective at room temperature, at elevated temperature below the boiling point of the solvent and in the vapor phase above the boiling point of the solvent.
