Claims
- 1. A process for preparing diazotype copies which comprises applying to an imagewise exposed binary diazotype paper, a thin layer of a liquid developer consisting essentially of an alkali metal salt or an alkaline earth metal salt of an amino acid or mixtures thereof, and the balance is essentially a solvent selected from the group consisting of water, glycols, glycol ethers and mixtures thereof.
- 2. A process according to claim 1 in which said liquid developer contains from 2 to 40 weight percent of said amino acid salt.
- 3. A process according to claim 1 in which said solvent is water.
- 4. A process according to claim 1 in which said solvent is a glycol, a glycol ether or mixtures thereof.
- 5. A process according to claim 1 in which said solvent consists of 5 to 20 weight percent of water based on the weight of the liquid developer, and the balance is a glycol, a glycol ether or mixtures thereof.
- 6. A process according to claim 1 in which said solvent consists of a mixture of water and a glycol, a glycol ether or mixtures thereof wherein the amount of water exceeds 20 weight percent, based on the weight of the liquid developer.
