Method for the manufacture of silver halide photographic materials

摘要

A method for producing a silver halide photographic material which comprises the steps of: (a) coating hydrophilic colloid coating liquid on a polyester support; (b) forming a hydrophilic colloid layer by drying said hydrophilic coating liquid, when A is not more than 300, in an atmosphere having a relative humidity of not more than 50% and such that the ratio A/B is at least 18 wherein A is determined by the following formula: A=(M/S)x100 wherein M represents the moisture content by weight of said hydrophilic colloid layer on said support and S represents the solid weight of said hydrophilic colloid layer on said support, and B is the drying time until A is not more than 8 expressed in seconds; and (C) heat treating said coated supported from step (b) at a temperature of at least 30 DEG C. in a atmosphere having an absolute humidity of not more than 1%. The method of the present invention provides silver halide photographic materials which have improved dimensional stability.
