A process for producing a silver halide photographic material that has at least one silver halide emulsion layer on a support, in which process at least 10 mg of a calcium salt per mole of silver halide is added during the period from the completion of physical ripening a silver halide emulsion to the completion of its chemical ripening together with at least one compound represented by the following general formula (I) and at least one compound represented by the following general formula (II): ##STR1## where R.sub.1 is a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group; R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 which may be the same or different are each a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group; A.sub.1 -A.sub.6 are each a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an alkoxy group, a halogen atom or a phenyl group, provided that adjacent atoms or groups may combine to form a ring; X is an anion; and n is 0 or 1, provided that n =0 when an intramolecular salt is formed; ##STR2## wherein Z.sub.1 is the group of non-metallic atoms necessary to form a 5- or 6-membered hetero ring; Q is the group of non-metallic atoms necessary to form a 5-membered nitrogenous hetero ring; R.sub.4 is an alkyl group of a substituted alkyl group; and m is 1 or 2.

Process for producing silver halide photographic material

A process for producing a silver halide photographic paper that has on a support at least one photographic constituent layer incorporating a silver halide developing agent and at least one photographic constituent layer containing both a polymer latex and an emulsified dispersion of an oil-soluble fluorescent brightener dissolved in a high-boiling point organic solvent wherein said emulsified dispersion is preliminarily mixed with said polymer latex, the resulting mixture then being incorporated in a selected photographic constituent layer.

Process for producing silver halide photographic paper

Silver halide photographic paper for direct positives, comprising a support and a silver halide emulsion layer for direct positives, provided on the support and containing silver halide grains having been fogged in the presence of a reduction fogging agent and a water-soluble gold compound, wherein a photographic layer on the side on which said silver halide emulsion layer for direct positives is provided contains an emulsion dispersion or latex dispersion of an oil-soluble brightening agent, and simultaneously contains at least one of organic desensitizers represented by formula (I), (II), (III), (IV) or (V) as shown in the specification.

High whiteness silver halide photographic paper for direct positives

A silver halide printing paper is disclosed, which is improved in a remaining curl. The support of the photographic paper comprises a support having a paper substratum, being coated over to the both sides thereof with a polyolefin resin, and has a Taber stiffness value of from 1.0 to 3.0 in machine direction. At least one silver halide emulsion layer is coated on one side and a hydrophilic colloidal backing layer is coated on the other side of the support. The silver halide emulsion layer contains a polyhydric alcohol in an amount of from 5 to 40% by weight to an amount by weight of the gelatin binder forming the emulsion layer and an alkyl acrylate polymer latex in an amount of from 30 to 80% by weight thereto. A total amount of gelatin coated over to the emulsion layer side of said support is not more than 4.0 g/m.sup.2, and a total amount of gelatin coated over to the backing layer side of said support is not more than 2.0 g/m.sup.2.
