  • Patent number: 3998637
    Abstract: Positive color diffusion transfer images are produced by a process that employs light-sensitive photographic elements containing dye-releasing redox agents. The dye-releasing redox agents may be a sulfonamido compound or a hydroquinone derivative which are capable of cleaving to release a diffusible color-providing moiety. A preferred process involves the use of black-and-white developer compositions and comprises1. developing only a negative silver image in the imagewise exposed areas of the photographic element;2. fogging the residual silver halide;3. developing the residual silver halide in the fogged element to silver and concurrently releasing a diffusible dye or dye precurser in the non-image, fogged silver halide areas; and4. at least a portion of the diffusible dye or dye precurser compound diffusing to a dye image-receiving layer.
