Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0650086A2] A method of improving abrasion resistance and sensitivity to variations in development time of a photographic material comprising a support bearing a silver halide emulsion layer comprising at least 50% silver chloride which contains in or adjacent the emulsion layer a hydrazide nucleating agent and an amine booster, the combination of which is capable of providing high contrast images, sensitised to radiation having a wavelength from 600 to 700 nm characterised by sensitising the emulsion wih a tricyclic merocyanine dye of the general formula: <CHEM> wherein R<1>, and R<2> are each hydrogen or a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group of 1-5 carbon atoms, and R<3>, R<4> and R<5> are each a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group of 1-5 carbon atoms, and wherein at least one of R<3>, R<4> and R<5> contain a water-solubilising group, X is a counter-ion, and n is 0-3., an
