Abstract
A method of manufacturing a photographic reflecting support wherein chips and/or resin scraps of a thermoplastic resin are heat-treated in a vacuum and fed into an extruder to be melted and then extruded in the form of a sheet out of the die of the extruder. The resulting sheet is then cooled and solidified on a cooled casting drum and stretched 6 to 16 times in terms of area, lengthwise and then widthwise or vice versa, or biaxially at the same time, at a temperature within the range of from a temperature not lower than the glass transition point of the thermoplastic resin to a temperature not higher than 150.degree. C. The stretched sheet is then thermoset at a temperature within the range of from a temperature not lower than 170.degree. C. to a temperature of the melting point of the thermoplastic resin and the resulting photographic reflecting support is made from 40 .mu.m to 300 .mu.m in thickness and not higher than 20% in visible-wave-length range transmittance.
