Abstract

Disclosed is a process for producing a titanium dioxide pigment used for a resin-coated paper type photographic support, comprising the following steps:(a) a step of adding at least one alkaline earth metal compound in an amount of 0.01-2.0% by weight in terms of a metal oxide based on the titanium dioxide before calcination step and(b) an acid-washing step of washing the titanium dioxide at acidic state after the calcination step and before a step of surface treatment with a hydrated metal oxide,and wherein particle size of the titanium dioxide pigment is 0.110-0.150 μm shown by number-average diameter obtained by measuring the diameter in a certain direction using an electron microscope.A photographic support which comprises the above titanium dioxide pigment is also disclosed.Occurrence of die lip stain and microgrit are substantially restrained in this photographic support and a photographic material made of it shows improved image sharpness.
