There is provided a packaging material for a photographic light-sensitive material, the packaging material being formed from a resin composition that contains a compound having an unsaturated double bond or that contains a poly(conjugated diene) component, a metal ion that can promote a catalytic oxidation reaction of the unsaturated double bond and the poly(conjugated diene), and a chelating agent that can coordinate the metal ion in an amount sufficient to suppress the catalytic oxidation reaction. There is also provided a photographic light-sensitive material package formed by housing the photographic light-sensitive material in the packaging material for the photographic light-sensitive material.

A container for a web-shaped photosensitive material having a core on which is placed the web-shaped photosensitive material in the form of a roll, a port opening via which the web-shaped photosensitive material is taken out, and light-shielding plushes disposed at the port opening. The light-shielding plush is dyed with a colorant dye having spectral absorption (SQ value) in at least a region of spectral photosensitivity of a red-sensitive layer of the web-shaped photosensitive material. Light fog is prevented.

A self-processing photographic film unit has a trap member using a nonwoven cloth in order to catch surplus processing solution. This nonwoven cloth is provided with a polymer having carboxyl groups, and a hardening agent for hardening the polymer in order to prevent leakage and change of color to a frame portion of an image forming plane. A nonwoven cloth according to another embodiment includes a fiber of duplex structure which comprises an external layer of a hydrophilic cross linkage polymer and an internal layer of an acrylonitrile type polymer. A further embodiment includes a nonwoven cloth having dimensions of individual gaps or density which are changed stepwise or continuously. This nonwoven cloth is stored in the trap section so that a portion having a small density or large individual gaps is disposed on the inlet side.

A self-processing film unit has an over sheet for covering a surface which is exposed after an image recording sheet with a positive image recorded therein has been peeled off. The over sheet is superimposed on the exposed surface after peeling-off and adheres to the exposed surface to prevent processing liquid remaining on that exposed surface from soiling the hands or clothing of the user.
