Abstract
A silver salt photothermographic material is disclosed, comprising light-insensitive organic silver salt grains and light-sensitive silver halide grains, a reducing agent for silver ions and a binder, wherein the reducing agent is a compound represented by the following formula (1) and the light-sensitive layer further comprises a hindered phenol represented by the following formula (2)
Claims11
A silver salt photothermographic material comprising on a support a light-sensitive layer comprising a light-sensitive emulsion containing light-insensitive organic silver salt grains of behenic acid and light-sensitive silver halide grains, a reducing agent for silver ions and a binder, wherein the reducing agent for silver ions is a compound represented by the following formula (1) and the light-sensitive layer further comprises a hindered phenol which is a compound represented by the following formula (3), and wherein a molar ratio of the compound represented by formula (3) to the compound represented by formula (1) is 0.001 to 0.2:
- wherein R11 and R12 are each a hydrogen atom, a 3- to 10-membered non-aromatic ring group or a 5- or 6-membered aromatic ring group, provided that R11 and R12 are not hydrogen atoms at the same time;
- R13 and R14 are each a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, an alkenyl group, a cycloalkenyl group, an aryl group or a heterocyclic group;
- Q is a group capable of being substituted on a benzene ring;
- n is 0, 1 or 2;
- wherein R31, R32, R33 and R34 are each an alkyl or cycloalkyl group;
- L is —S—or —CHR35, in which R35 is a hydrogen atom or an alkyl or cycloalkyl group.
