Definitions
- This invention relates to a process of preparing and making of photographic emulsions. Specifically, this invention relates to a particular method for the addition of a powdered material such as dyes to a photographic system. Examples of dyes include spectral sensitizing dyes, filter dyes and antihalation dyes. Also the present invention relates to emulsions containing such powders.
- a powder such as a dye
- spectral sensitization image quality improvement or antihalation.
- spectral sensitization image quality improvement or antihalation.
- such property may take the form of so-called “chemical sensitization” wherein various ingredients are added to change the sensitometry thereof.
- it may also be necessary to alter the spectral response of the emulsions for one reason or another. If this is required, so-called “spectral sensitizing" dyes are added to this aqueous dispersion of gelatin and silver halide.
- the dyes are conventionally large, organic molecules as is well-known and these are sometimes not very soluble in either an aqueous or in a mixture of organic/aqueous solvents. Thus, very dilute mixtures are made in order to dissolve the dye before adding the dye to the emulsion.
- dyes for example can be of the sensitizing, filter or antihalation type and they can be added to an under or backing layer.
- Dyes of this type often are generally large, organic compounds and some have very complex structures. Many of the compounds are usually not very soluble in water and thus generally are either dispersed as a dilute water solution or some water miscible combination such as the lower alcohols or ketones.
- the problem of adding the dye to the solvent is obvious. These dyes are conventionally fine, powdered materials and will color, stain and even cause physical problems if ingested while airborne.
- capsule excludes a microcapsule
- the process for achieving an encapsulation is well-known in the prior art.
- the capsules are formed and the dry dye powder can be inserted therein using a conventionally known machine such as the Type 8 Standard Hard Capsule Filling Machine designed by CAPSUGEL, a Division of Warner-Lambert Co., Highland Park, MI.
- CAPSUGEL a Division of Warner-Lambert Co., Highland Park, MI.
- These dye capsules can then be stored for long periods of time prior to use. Since a known amount of dry dye is placed within each capsule, the amount of dye added to the emulsion or gelatin layers is easily controlled.
- gelatin capsules are compatible with the gelatin conventionally used within these photographic systems, problems of dispersion of the dye prevalent with other, dry methods, are not a problem here. Thus, one only needs to insure that the capsules have some time to dissolve and the dye will enter the emulsion properly. Since the capsules are essentially dry and dust-free, the problems of dry dye dispersion are also eliminated as is the addition of extra solvent and the like.
- This example demonstrates the use of encapsulated, photographic sensitizing dye within a gelatino, silver halide emulsion.
- a conventional, silver bromoiodide, tabular grain emulsion (ca. 98% Br and ca. 2% I) was prepared as well-known to those of normal skill in the art. This emulsion was then dispersed in a bulking amount of gelatin and brought to its optimum sensitivity with gold and sulfur salts as is also well-known. Standard antifoggants, wetting and coating aides were also present as well as hardeners. Since tabular grains have a low sensitivity in the green spectrum of the visible region, it is conventional to add a green spectral sensitizing dye to the emulsion in order to increase the sensitivity thereof.
- Both emulsions were coated on a standard dimensionally stable polyethylene terephthalate film support which had been previously subbed with resin and gelatin sub layers to improve the adhesion of the emulsion.
- the emulsion layers were coated to a coating weight of 4.7 mg Ag/dm 2 and then an overcoat layer of gelatin was applied supra thereto. After drying, samples of both elements were given a conventional exposure, developed, fixed, washed and dried. The physical and sensitometric properties of these elements were equivalent indicating that the encapsulated dyes had been dispersed and absorbed by the silver halide grains.
- This example demonstrates the use of the encapsulation process for the preparation of an antihalation layer.
- An emulsion suitable for preparing an antihalation layer was made by mixing 900 gms of an encapsulated Acid Violet 520 dye of the following structure: This material was encapsulated using the same equipment as Example 1 and the capsules contained in the neighborhood of 300 to 500 mg of dye per capsule.
- the backing solution also contained about 60,000 gms of gelatin and about 690,900 gms of water, Additionally, this solution contained the usual wetting and coating aides and hardeners.
- the capsules were dispersed in this solution at 60 C for about 3 minutes and appeared to be fully compatible with this mixture. For control purposes, the same dye dissolved in water was used.
- Both gelatin solutions were coated on standard polyester base and a standard emulsion layer coated on the opposite side thereto. Both antihalation layers were equivalent in every respect as regards optical density and ability to absorb scattered light. The sensitometry of the silver halide emulsion layers were also equivalent.
- the procedure described in this invention can be used with dyes used within any conventional, gelatino, silver halide element.
- Cross contamination of various dyes which might be used to prepare any variety of element is avoided as well as the dusting and dirt problem normally associated with the dissolution of dyes into solvents.
- the addition of alternate solvents to the silver halide emulsion is also avoided by the practice of this invention.
