Description
- The present invention relates to a processing method for silver halide color photographic light-sensitive materials (hereinafter also simply referred to as "light-sensitive meterials") and a bleaching solution suitable for said processing method, specifically to a processing method and bleaching solution permitting sufficient desilvering in a short time and prevention of bleach fogging; this art can function well even in use for silver-rich high-sensitivity light-sensitive materials.
- Light-sensitive material processing basically comprises color developing and desilvering processes; desilvering comprises bleaching and fixing processes or a bleach-fixing process. Rinsing, stabilization and other processes may be added.
- In processing solution with bleaching capability used to desilver light-sensitive materials, ferricyanates, bichromates, and other inorganic oxidizing agents have conventionally been widely used to bleach image silver.
- However, some critical drawbacks are pointed out in processing solutions with bleaching capability containing these inorganic oxidizing agents. For example, ferricyanates and bichromates are undesirable in preventing environmental pollution in that they may be decomposed by light to produce harmful cyan ions or hexavalent chromium ions, though they are relatively high in image silver bleaching power. Another drawback is that it is difficult to regenerate from reusing these processing solutions without discarding the waste liquid after processing.
- In response to the requirements of less problems of environmental pollution, rapid and simple processing, reuse of waste liquid, and others, processing solutions containing metal complex salts of organic acids, such as aminopolycarboxylic acid, as oxidizing agent have become used. However, such processing solutions are faulty in that the bleaching rate (oxidation rate) of image silver (metallic silver) formed in the developing process is low due to weak oxidation power. For example, iron (III) complex salt of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, considered relatively strong in bleaching power among metal complex salts of aminopolycarboxylic acid, is now in practical use in bleaching solutions and bleach-fixers, but it is faulty in that bleaching power is insufficient and much time is taken in the bleaching process when used for high-sensitivity silver halide color photographic light-sensitive materials composed mainly of a silver bromide or silver iodobromide emulsion, specifically silver-rich color paper for picture taking and color negative and color reversal films for picture taking which contain silver iodide.
- In addition, developing methods using automatic developing machine etc. to continuously process large amounts of light-sensitive materials necessitate a means of keeping the processing solution components in a given range of concentration to avoid reduction of bleacher performance due to changes in component concentrations. To meet this requirement, as well as to increase economy and prevent environmental pollution, some methods were proposed, including the method in which concentrated replenishers are added in small amounts and the method in which overflow solutions are supplemented with regenerating agents and then reused as replenishers.
- As regards bleachers, a method is now in practical use in which a ferrous complex salt of organic acid formed in bleaching developed silver, e.g. iron (II) complex salt of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, is oxidized by aeration to iron (III) complex salt of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, i.e. ferric complex salt of organic acid, and a regenerating agent is added to replenish the deficient components, then the solution is used as a replenisher.
- In recent years, however, what is called compact-labos (also called minilabos) have become widely established with the aim of reducing processing time for silver halide color photographic light-sensitive materials and delivery cost; in these labos, there are severe needs of process simplification and reduction of developing machine installation space, so regeneration is unsuitable since it necessitates troublesome procedures and maintenance, as well as additional processing space.
- It is therefore preferable to use the replenishing method with small amounts of thick replenishers without regenerating process; however, when the amount of replenisher is extremely small, there occurs an increase in the concentration of color developer components transferred to the bleaching solution, and the solution becomes likely to be affected by evaporative concentration; these increase the accumulation of color developer components. As stated above, when the color developer component concentration in the bleaching solution increases, there occurs an increase in the ratio of contaminant reducing components, such as color developing agent and sulfites, bleaching reaction is inhibited, and what is called desilvering failure becomes likely to occur. To overcome these drawbacks, it was proposed to use ferric complex salts of aminopolycarboxylic acid disclosed in Research Disclosure No. 24023 and Japanese Patent Publication Open to Public Inspection No. 62-222252/1987 and their mixtures. However, even this method proved to have various drawbacks. For example, ferric complex salts of 1,3-propanediaminetetraacetic acid, disclosed in the above literature, are faulty in that bleach fogging occurs when it is used to bleach silver-rich high-sensitivity light-sensitive materials for a long time. Accordingly, the use of these salts or mixtures as bleaching agents causes bleach fogging in color-sensitized high-sensitivity light-sensitive materials composed mainly of a silver chloroiodide or silver iodobromide emulsion, specifically ultrahigh-speed (e.g. 400 to 3200 ASA) color negative films for picture taking incorporating a silver-rich emulsion, though it allows us to accomplish the desired purpose in bleaching or bleach-fixing low-speed light-sensitive materials composed mainly of a silver chlorobromide emulsion. This drawback becomes more serious when the amount of bleacher replenisher is reduced. Also, this tendency was found to become stronger when the color developing agent is present at concentrations of over 1.5 x 10-2 mol in the color develope to be used in developing process arrayed before the bleaching process.
- For these reasons, it is desired that a desilvering method and bleaching solution applicable to process high-sensitivity silver-rich light-sensitive materials without bleach fogging will be developed.
- DE-A-35 18 257 discloses a method for processing a light-sensitive color photographic material comprising the steps of developing an imagewise exposed silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material with a color developer, thereafter bleaching said light-sensitive material with a bleaching solution and then treating said light-sensitive material with a solution having fixing capability in a separate step.

Process Processing time Processing temperature Replenisher amount Color developing 3 min 15 sec 38°C 12 mℓ Bleaching 45 sec 37°C 1.5 mℓ Fixing 1 min 30 sec 37°C 10 mℓ Stabilization 60 sec 37°C 10 mℓ Drying 60 sec 70°C - (The amounts of replenishers are shown in mℓ per 100 cm2 light-sensitive material.) - Note that fixing was conducted by the 2-tank counter current method (45 sec, 2 tanks) and stabilization conducted by the 3-tank counter current method (20 sec, 3 tanks).
- Running processing was conducted until the bleaching solution replenisher amount became two times the capacity of the bleaching tank in 40 days. After completion of running processing, the film sample was measured in the same manner as Example 1, except that running processing was conducted in the absence/presence of 0.4 mol/ℓ citric acid or 1.5 mol/ℓ acetic acid, with the amount of bleacher replenisher varied to 0.75, 1.5, 5, and 10 mℓ per 100 cm2.

After the maximum cyan density of the resulted was measured, the sample was retreated with a newly prepared fresh bleaching solution. A non-recurring phenomenon on the cyan image due to continuous processing was determined by comparison of the maximum density values obtained before and after retreatment. Table 9 shows each of the non-recurring ratios (%) which is defined as a ratio (%) of a difference between the maximum density values obtained before and after retreatment with the fresh bleaching solution to the maximum density value before the retreatment.
