  • Patent number: 4892803
    Abstract: A color image-forming process which comprises developing, after imagewise exposure, a color photographic paper having at least one light-sensitive layer containing a core/shell surface latent image type monodispersed silver halide emulsion containing substantially no silver iodide, having a silver chloride content of up to 80 mol %, and having a silver bromide content in the shell portion lower than in the core portion with a color developer containing substantially no benzyl alcohol.When the color photographic paper described above is processed, color images having less fog can be obtained with high color density in a short time without using benzyl alcohol as a development accelerator, with the benzyl alcohol causing a pollution problem.

  • Patent number: 4568635
    Abstract: A silver halide light-sensitive material comprising a support having provided thereon at least one silver halide emulsion layer is disclosed. The emulsion layer contains a silver halide prepared in the presence of a tetrasubstituted thiourea as a silver halide solvent and was hardened with a hardener containing a vinylsulfonyl group. Combined use of the tetrasubstituted thiourea and the hardener of the above-described kinds increases the storability of the light-sensitive material.
