Abstract

See full text

A photothermographic composition of enhanced photosensitivity is disclosed prepared by a process of (a) precipitating light-sensitive silver halide grains in the presence of a non-aqueous polymeric peptizer and (b) then combining the silver halide grains with a non-aqueous polymeric vehicle containing an oxidation-reduction image-forming combination comprised of an organic silver compound and a reducing agent for the organic silver compound. Light-sensitivity of the silver halide grains is enhanced by, prior to step (b), sensitizing the silver halide grains with a 1,1,3,3-tetra-substituted thiourea or selenourea having an acid dissociation constant of less than 7.0, the thiourea or selenourea being dissolved in an aqueous medium.
