Abstract: A color photographic silver halide light-sensitive material which prevents formation of color fog is disclosed, containing a negative gradation photographic silver halide emulsion which is substantially of the surface latent image type, and at least one compound represented by the general formula (I): ##STR1## wherein X represents --CONR.sup.1 R.sup.2, --COR.sup.1, --SO.sub.2 R.sup.1, or --SO.sub.3 R.sup.1 and wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 each are selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen atom, a substituted or unsubstituted aliphatic group, and a substituted or unsubstituted aromatic group, and are selected such that may combine together to form a ring.
Abstract: A method for preparing a magnetic recording medium is disclosed. The method involves forming a thin magnetic layer on a polyester film by means of a vapor deposition or plating method, continually moving the film while maintaining it at a tension of 400 g/mm.sup.2 or less and contacting the moving film with a heating device at a temperature within the range of 70.degree. to 200.degree. C. for a period of time within the range of 0.1 to 30 seconds. The method provides a non-binder type magnetic recording medium having improved skew characteristics without formation of curls.
Abstract: A color diffusion transfer photographic element comprising a support having provided thereon a layer containing a dye-providing material associated with a light-sensitive silver halide emulsion, wherein said dye-providing material is a metal chelate compound represented by the following general formula (I) or (II): ##STR1## wherein M.sup.I represents a monovalent, divalent, or trivalent cation; X represents a monovalent, divalent, or trivalent anion; Z and Z.sup.2 each represents an aromatic carbon ring nucleus or heterocyclic ring nucleus having 5 to 7 carbon atoms; G represents a chelating group; Z.sup.1 represents an aromatic carbon ring nucleus or heterocyclic nucleus composed of 5 to 7 atoms; said nucleus having (a) a nitrogen atom, or (b) a carbon atom bonded to a chelating group at the position adjacent to the position bonded to the azo group; Z.sup.3 represents an electron attractive group; Z.sup.
Abstract: A heat-sensitive recording paper is disclosed. The paper is comprised of a support base which is made of a paper having a density 0.9 g/cm.sup.3 or less and a heat-sensitive recording layer coated on the support base. The surface of the heat-sensitive recording layer has an optical contact ratio of 7% or more. By utilizing the particularly disclosed support base paper and adjusting the optical contact ratio of the surface of the heat-sensitive recording layer, the resulting recording paper can give high heat conductivity between the surface of the recording layer and a recording element. Accordingly, the recording paper has a fast response speed and can produce a high density image without disadvantages such as increased fog formation.
Abstract: A magnetic recording medium is disclosed which is comprised of a nonmagnetic support base having a magnetic layer disposed on one surface. A back coating is disposed on the opposite surface of the support base in order to provide the magnetic recording medium with greater durability without increasing the coefficient of friction. The back coating is comprised of a binder having inorganic particles dispersed therein, the inorganic particles including SnO.sub.2 particles having an average size of about 0.01 to about 0.8.mu.. The back coating does not reduce the S/N ratio of the recording medium.
