Abstract

Abstract A radiation image storage panel comprising a support and a phosphor layer provided thereon which comprises a binder and a stimulable phosphor dispersed therein, characterized in that said phosphor layer consists essentially of one part on the support side which contains the stimulable phosphor and the other part on the panel surface side which does not substantially contain the stimulable phosphor. Processes for the preparation of said radiation image storage panel are also disclosed.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim 61 words
A radiation image storage panel comprising a support and a phosphor layer provided thereon which comprises a binder and a stimulable phosphor dispersed therein, characterized in that said phosphor layer consists essentially of one part on the support side which contains the stimulable phosphor and the other part on the panel surface side which does not substantially contain the stimulable phosphor.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 61 words
A radiation image storage panel comprising a support and a phosphor layer provided thereon which comprises a binder and a stimulable phosphor dispersed therein, characterized in that said phosphor layer consists essentially of one part on the support side which contains the stimulable phosphor and the other part on the panel surface side which does not substantially contain the stimulable phosphor.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 49 words
The radiation image storage panel as claimed in claim 1, in which the ratio between said part on the support side containing the stimulable phosphor and said part on the panel surface side substantially containing no stimulable phosphor, is within the range of from 100:1 to 5:1, by volume.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 49 words
The radiation image storage panel as claimed in claim 1, in which the composition of the binder contained in said phosphor layer is the same between the part on the support side containing the stimulable phosphor and the part on the panel surface side substantially containing no stimulable phosphor.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 48 words
The radiation image storage panel as claimed in claim 1, in which the composition of the binder contained in said phosphor layer is different between the part on the support side containing the stimulable phosphor and the part on the panel surface side substantially containing no stimulable phosphor.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 71 words
The radiation image storage panel as claimed in claim 1, in which only said part of the phosphor layer on the support side containing the stimulable phosphor is substantially colored with such a colorant that the mean reflectance thereof in the wavelength region of stimulating rays for the stimulable phosphor is lower than the mean reflectance thereof in the wavelength region of light emitted by the stimulable phosphor upon stimulation thereof.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 38 words
The radiation image storage panel as claimed in claim 1, in which said part of the phosphor layer on the panel surface side substantially containing no stimulable phosphor contains an antistatic agent of an inorganic salt of metal.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 54 words
The radiation image storage panel as claimed in claim 6, in which said antistatic agent is at least one inorganic salt of metal selected from the group consisting of LiCl, NaCl, NaBr, NaI, NaNO 3 , Na 3 PO 4 , CsI, MgBr 2 , BaBr 2 , BaI 2 and AlBr 3 .
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 38 words
The radiation image storage panel as claimed in claim 7, in which said antistatic agent is at least one inorganic salt of metal selected from the group consisting of LiCl, NaBr, NaI, MgBr 2 and AlBr 3 .
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 34 words
The radiation image storage panel as claimed in claim 6, in which said antistatic agent is contained in an amount ranging from 0.03 to 6% by weight of the binder of the phosphor layer.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 68 words
A radiation image storage panel comprising a support, a phosphor layer which comprises a binder and a stimulable phosphor dispersed therein and a protective film, superposed in this order, characterized in that said protective film comprises an antistatic agent of an inorganic salt of metal dispersed in a binder, wherein said inorganic salt is in an amount of 0.1 to 20% by weight based on the protective film.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 68 words
A radiation image storage panel comprising a support, a phosphor layer which comprises a binder and a stimulable phosphor dispersed therein and a protective film, superposed in this order, characterized in that said protective film comprises an antistatic agent of an inorganic salt of metal dispersed in a binder, wherein said inorganic salt is in an amount of 0.1 to 20% by weight based on the protective film.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 54 words
The radiation image storage panel as claimed in claim 10, in which said antistatic agent is at least one inorganic salt of metal selected from the group consisting of LiCl, NaCl, NaBr, NaI, NaNO 3 , Na 3 PO 4 , CsI, MgBr 2 , BaBr 2 , BaI 2 and AlBr 3 .
Claim 14
Dependent Claim 38 words
The radiation image storage panel as claimed in claim 11, in which said antistatic agent is at least one inorganic salt of metal selected from the group consisting of LiCl, NaBr, NaI, MgBr 2 and AlBr 3 .
