Abstract: A photo-sensitive and heat-sensitive composition consisting essentially of (a) a photooxidant, (b) a color-generator generating color when oxidized, (c) an acid promoting said color generation, (d) a cobalt (III) complex, (e) a photoreductant, (f) a hydrogen donator and (g) a chelating agent consisting of a dioxime compound having the general formula: ##STR1## (where n is an integer of 0 to 3, and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 can each represent an alkyl, aryl or aralkyl group), and a recording element using the same.

Abstract: A photo-sensitive and heat-sensitive composition consisting essentially of a leuco-pigment; a hydrogen donator; a photo-reductant which, when exposed to a visible light, produces a reducing agent by the action of said hydrogen donator coexisting therewith; a photooxidant which, when exposed to an ultraviolet ray, causes said leuco-pigment coexisting therewith to generate color and simultaneously, when reacted with said reducing agent, is deprived of its own oxidizing ability; and a cobalt complex which reacts with the reducing agent in amplifying manner to thereby suppress the reaction of a color-forming system, and a recording element using the same.
Abstract: An imaged development process and materials wherein use is made of a photographic medium sensitive to ultraviolet radiations and formulated of an alkyl cellulose derivative and 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane.
Abstract: A non-silver photosensitive image forming composition containing at least one substituted bis-diaryl vinylidene compound and/or at least one substituted bis-diaryl imine compound and tetraiodoethylene in a dried photosensitive layer thickness not exceeding 3 microns in layer thickness, the nature of the substitution being such that substantially any high extinction absorption peak or combination of high extinction absorption peaks is available from a family of compositions covering the range of 350 to 900 nm in wavelength, said composition being placed on a transparent or reflective substrate fitted with a compatible adhesive for the photosensitive layer not more than 0.
Abstract: A photosensitive composition containing a .beta.-diketonato-metal chelate compound as an image-forming material with or without a sensitizer, and suitable for use as a direct print-out image recording material, a photochromic material, a heat-developable image recording material or a heat-developable and photo-fixable image recording material.
