Abstract

The invention concerns a process for making photographic images. The process involves the photooxidation of a film of a photosensitive composition containing certain essential components to form peroxides in the exposed areas of the film, and decomposition of the peroxides to form a crosslinked polymer in the exposed areas. Essential to the composition are an ethylenically unsaturated component capable of forming a crosslinked polymer, and an oxidizable component containing allylic hydrogens.
