Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of processing silver halide color light-sensitive materials using a reduced amount of a bleach-fix replenisher solution. More particularly, it relates to a method of processing silver halide color light-sensitive materials, by which contamination of color light-sensitive materials is substantially prevented and formation of a leuco form of dyes is substantially prevented.
- a process in order to obtain color images by carrying out development processing of an imagewise exposed silver halide color light-sensitive material, a process generally is used which comprises bleaching metallic silver formed upon a color development step with an oxidizing agent (bleaching agent) followed by fixing with a silver halide fixing agent.
- a process is also used which comprises a bleach-fixing step in which the bleaching step is combined with the fixing step.
- Typical bleach-fix solutions used for such a process have been described in West German Patents 866,605 and 966,410, British Patent 1,014,396, U.S. Patents 3,189,452 and 3,615,508, and Japanese Patent Application (OPI) Nos. 781/71, 13934/72, 65940/73 and 140128/75 (the term "OPI" as used herein refers to a "published unexamined Japanese patent application"), etc.

Abstract
A method of processing silver halide color light-sensitive materials is disclosed, which comprises the steps of:
- developing an exposed silver halide color light-sensitive material,
- thereafter substantially washing the material with water for a period from about 5 to 90 seconds, and
- thereafter bleach-fixing the material using a bleach-fixing solution to which is added from about 30 ml to 120 ml replenisher solution of a bleach-fix per m' of said material processed,
- by which contamination of the light-sensitive materials and inferior recovery of color are prevented in spite of using a reduced amount of a bleach-fix replenisher solution.
Description
- The present invention relates to a method of processing silver halide color light-sensitive materials using a reduced amount of a bleach-fix replenisher solution. More particularly, it relates to a method of processing silver halide color light-sensitive materials, by which contamination of color light-sensitive materials is substantially prevented and formation of a leuco form of dyes is substantially prevented.
- Generally, in order to obtain color images by carrying out development processing of an imagewise exposed silver halide color light-sensitive material, a process generally is used which comprises bleaching metallic silver formed upon a color development step with an oxidizing agent (bleaching agent) followed by fixing with a silver halide fixing agent. For the purpose of shortening photographic processing steps or processing time, or reducing of labor,..a process is also used which comprises a bleach-fixing step in which the bleaching step is combined with the fixing step. Typical bleach-fix solutions used for such a process have been described in West German Patents 866,605 and 966,410, British Patent 1,014,396, U.S. Patents 3,189,452 and 3,615,508, and Japanese Patent Application (OPI) Nos. 781/71, 13934/72, 65940/73 and 140128/75 (the term "OPI" as used herein refers to a "published unexamined Japanese patent application"), etc.
- In the bleach-fix solution, a bleaching agent (oxidizing agent) and a fixing agent must be present together in a stabilized state. Since the thiosulfates used chiefly as fixing agents are reducing agents, a comparatively weak oxidizing agent such as a metal complex of an organic acid is selected as the bleaching agent. Thus, the prepared bleach-fix solution is inherently inferior in oxidation ability as compared with the bleaching solution.
- Consequently, known methods of processing color light-sensitive materials with a bleach-fix solution have the disadvantage that dyes are not completely formed, because the leuco dyes formed in the color development step are not sufficiently oxidized in the bleach-fixing step and remain present as leuco dyes which are reaction intermediates. This phenomenon of inferior recovery of color is remarkable in the case of cyan dyes.
- Furthermore, in recent years, in order to meet environmental requirements, in to economize and to reduce labor, there has been a tendency to reduce replenishing amounts of processing solutions. However, when the replenishing amount of the bleach-fix solution is greatly reduced, unsuitable contamination of sensitive materials (adhesion of contaminants and formation of fog) occurs, and it becomes very difficult to avoid both inferior recovery of color and contamination at the same time.
- Various methods of improving the inferior recovery of color are known. For example, a method wherein bromic acid salts or persulfates are added to a bleaching solution is described in Japanese Patent Application (OPI) Nos. 17732/74 (corresponding to U. S. Patent 3,770,437) and 65939/76, this method has the disadvantage that bleaching fog is formed. A method which comprises oxidizing leuco substances with. ferricyanides to change them into dyes after processing with a bleach-fix solution is desclosed in Japanese Patent Application (OPI) Nos. 43938/73, 45238/73, and 46334/73, but this method is not suitable because it causes environmental pollution. A method wherein bromic acid salts and iodides or bromides are added to a bleach-fix solution is disclosed in U. S. Patent 3,770,437, but it is not suitable because it deteriorates the stability of the bleach-fix solution and bleaching fog is formed. A method which comprises processing with a solution containing persulfates as a pre-bath or post-bath of the bleach-fix bath is also know from Japanese Patent Application (OPI) No. 26139/73, but it is unsuitable for practical use, because of inferior recovery of color and formation of bleaching fog. Further, a method wherein various aminopolycarboxylic acid metal complexes are combined is described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 38894/79, but this is not a practical method, because stability of the bleach-fix solution is inferior and the cost is disadvantageous. Moreover, a method wherein p-phenylenediamines or pyrazolidones are added to the bleach-fixing solution is described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 23179/76 and a method wherein alkanolamines are added to the bleach-fix solution is described in Japanese Patent Application (OPI) No. 192953/82, but both methods show an inferior effect.
- Several methods of preventing fog, are known, e.g., a method wherein amines are added -to the-bleach-fix solution described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 556/71 (corresponding to U.S. Patent 3,578,453); a method wherein bromides or iodides are added,described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 11854/78 (corresponding to U.S. Patent 4,040,837); and a method wherein 3-pyrazolidones or p-aminophenols are added, described in British Patents 1,132,399 and 1,133,500. These known.methods, however, are insufficient in effect.
- No satisfactory method has been known of preventing contamination of sensitive materials (particularly formation of fog) caused in the bleach-fixing step and avoiding inferior recovery of color while greatly reducing the replenishing amount of bleach-fix solution required, although these problems are well-known in the art.
- Accordingly, an object of'the present invention is to provide a method of processing silver halide color light-sensitive materials, by which the replenishing amount of bleach-fix solution required is greatly reduced and contamination of the-light-sensitive materials and inferior recovery of color are prevented.
- This object is attained by the method of the present invention, which comprises the steps of color developing a silver halide color light-sensitive material, substantially washing the .silver halide color light-sensitive material with water for 5 to 90 seconds and thereafter bleach-fixing in a bath which is replenished by the addition of a standard replenisher solution in a reduced amount of from about 30 ml to 120 ml per m2 of silver halide color light-sensitive material.
- Although it is known from Japanese Patent Application (OPI) No. 192953/82 to use a water wash bath between a color development step and a bleach-fixing step, there is no disclosure that by using such a washing step the replenishing amount of the bleach-fixing solution can be remarkably reduced as in the present invention, and, further, there is no disclosure regarding contamination of the light-sensitive materials or inferior recovery of color due to the remarkable reduce.
- It is an entirely unexpected discovery that the above-described problems of contamination of sensitive materials and inferior recovery of color, can be solved while greatly reducing the replenishing amount of the bleach-fix solution required by providing a water wash step as in the present invention.

- The present invention is illustrated in greater detail by reference to the following examples, but the present invention is not to be construed as being limited thereto.
-
- Imagewise exposed Fuji color papers (Type 01, produced by Fuji Photo Film Co.) were continuously processed by the above-described two processors.
-
- The imagewise exposed Fuji color papers (produced by Fuji Photo Film Co.) were continuously processed in processors (A) and (B) using the above-described processing solutions under the above-described processing conditions.
- The processing amount was 50 m2 of rolled paper. having a width of 8.25 cm per day, and the processing was repeated for 30 days.
- Further, wedge-exposed Fuji color papers were developed at the intervals indicated in Table 1, and their photographic properties were compared. Results, that is, the changes with rapse of time in optical density, of each a blue-sensitive layer (B), a green-sensitive layer (G) and a red-sensitive layer (R), obtained by processed with the processors (A) and (B), are shown in Table 1.
- The samples of the 30th day from processor (A) which had exhibited low red sensitivity and soft tone as the processing amount had increased, were measured again after they were immersed in a 20% solution of EDTA Fe (III). NH4 (pH 7.0), and they were restored to the photographic properties of the first day. Accordingly, it was concluded that formation of the leuco form of the cyan dye (inferior recovery of color) occurred in the processing by the processor (A), but it did not occur in the processing by the processor (B).
- The yellow densities of the D min portions of the wedge-exposed light-sensitive materials processed in processors (A) and (B) were again measured after samples exposed on the first day and samples exposed on the 30th day had been allowed to stand at 80°C for 15 days. The samples processed in processor (B) using the method of the present invention were shown to be clearly superior to the samples processed in processor (A). Remarkably, the processing performance attained after thirty days using the method of the present invention was nearly the same as that of the first day.
- Fuji color papers (produced by Fuji Photo Film Co.) were exposed and processed in the.same manner as in Example 1, with the difference that the processing amount was 25 m2 of rolled paper having a width of 8.25 cm per day, and the processing was repeated for 60 days.
-
- Once again, with increasing amounts of light-sensitive materials processed in processor (A), red- sensitivity and soft tone decreased, and inferior recovery of color was experienced as in Example 1. However, in the processing by the processor (B), it was not experienced. The samples of the first day and the 60th day were allowed to stand at 80°C for 15 days.
-
- In the processing by the processor (A), yellow stains were remarkably increased in the sample processed with the processing equilibrium solution (i.e., the tank solution wherein the processing was repeated for 60 days). However, in the processing by the processor (B), the result after 15 days was greatly superior, with the processing performance of the equilibrium solution remaining nearly the same as that of the tank solution.
- While the invention has been described in detail and with reference to specific embodiments thereof, it will be apparent to one skilled in the art that various changes and modifications can be made therein without departing from the spirit and the scope thereof.
