Abstract
Fine particle photographic coupler dispersions are prepared by forming a dispersion of a photographic coupler, coupler solvent and auxiliary coupler solvent in an aqueous gelatin medium containing at least about 1% by weight of an anionic surfactant selected from the group consisting of alkali metal salts of alkarylene sulfonic acids, alkali metal salts of alkyl sulfates, alkaryl sulfonate salts, and alkyl sulfosuccinates; and washing the dispersion with water for a time sufficient to remove at least one-fourth of the surfactant.
