Method for production of photosensitive material for diffusion transfer process
First Claim
1. A silver complex diffusion transfer process for producing images which comprises imagewise exposure to light of a photosensitive material comprising a polyolefin resin coated paper having a water content of 5.5 to 7.5% and provided thereon a water permeable silver halide emulsion layer and a water permeable hydrophilic colloid, layer, wherein at least one of the silver halide emulsion layer and the hydrophilic colloid layer contains a hydroxybenzene developing agent;
- when the layers on the emulsion layer coated side are immersed in a 0.1N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution at 20°
C. for 1 minute, amount of solution absorbed in the layers is 3.5-7.0 ml per 1 g of hydrophilic colloid and developing the exposed material with a processing solution in the presence of a developing agent and a solvent for the silver halide to form a soluble silver complex, and transferring the thus produced imagewise silver complex to an image receiving layer containing physical development nuclei of positive material to form a silver image.

Abstract
A photosensitive material for diffusion transfer process is disclosed according to which characteristic such as high maximum density, high contrast and image reproducibility can be stably obtained. This photosensitive material comprises a support and, provided thereon, a silver halide emulsion layer and a hydrophilic colloid layer and which is processed in contact with an image receiving material in a processing solution for silver complex diffusion transfer process wherein at least one of the silver halide emulsion layer and the hydrophillic colloid layer permeable to water contains a hydroxybenzene developing agent; when the layers on the emulsion layer coated side are immersed in a 0.1N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution at 20° C. for 1 minute, amount of solution absorbed in the layers is 3.5-7.0 ml per 1 g of hydrophilic colloid; and the support comprises a paper coated with polyolefin resin on both sides and has a water content of 5.5%-7.5%.
