Abstract
A radiographic intensifying screen comprising a support and at least one phosphor layer comprising a binder and a phosphor dispersed therein. The sharpness of image provided by the screen and the adhesion between the phosphor layer and the support are both remarkably improved by providing onto the surface of the support a great number of pits having a mean depth of at least 1 .mu.m, a maximum depth of more than 1 ranging to 50 .mu.m, and a mean diameter at the opening of at least 1 .mu.m.
Claims8
A radiographic intensifying screen, comprising a support of a plastic film and at least one phosphor layer comprising a binder and a phosphor dispersed therein, in which said support is provided on a surface facing said phosphor layer with a great number of pits having a mean depth of 1-10 .mu.m, inclusive, a maximum depth of more than 1 .mu.m ranging to 50 .mu.m, inclusive, and a means diameter of 10-50 .mu.m, inclusive, whereby light emitted by said phosphor and advancing towards said surface of said support is reflected diffusely.
A process for the preparation of a radiographic intensifying screen comprising a support of a plastic film and at least one phosphor layer comprising a binder and a phosphor dispersed therein, in which said support is provided on a surface facing said phosphor layer with a great number of pits having a mean depth of 1-10 .mu.m, inclusive, a maximum depth of the than 1 .mu.m ranging to 50 .mu.m, inclusive, and a mean diameter of 10-50 .mu.m, inclusive, said process comprising applying hard solid particles onto said surface of said support at high speed to form said pits.
