EP0520938B1 - UV-absorber containing photographic material - Google Patents

Description

The present invention relates to new photographic material which contains UV absorbers, in particular of the bis-2-hydroxyphenyltriazinyl type.

The use of 2-hydroxyphenyl-1,3,5-triazines as stabilizers against ultraviolet radiation in photographic materials is known, e.g. B. from DE-A-2 113 833.

Hydroxyphenylbenztriazoles previously used as UV absorbers in photographic materials showed the disadvantage that their own stability against light was insufficient. For this reason, the effectiveness of these UV absorbers decreases with increasing exposure. Furthermore, in many cases, poor chemical stability, low solubility, too high an inherent color or too low an extinction coefficient of the triazines have prevented their use in photographic materials.

A group of triazine UV absorbers has now been found which, surprisingly, has proven to be largely free from such disadvantages. They show improved stability to natural light and have the property of better protecting image dyes and color couplers against exposure to light than was possible with the hydroxyphenylbenztriazoles and triazines conventionally used in photographic materials. In particular, this group of triazines is suitable for increasing the stability of the magenta and cyan layers of photographic materials, e.g. in layers, which are applied over the magenta or cyan layer, or directly embedded in the cyan layer.

The UV absorbers according to the invention can be used for all types of photosensitive material. For example, they can be used for color paper, color reversal paper, direct positive color material, color negative film, color positive film, color reversal film and others. Among other things, they are preferably used for photosensitive color material which contains a reversal substrate or which forms positives.

Furthermore, these triazines can advantageously be combined with UV absorbers of the hydroxyphenylbenztriazole type, in particular representatives thereof which are liquid at room temperature (cf. for example US Pat. Nos. 4,853,471, 4,973,702, 4,921,966 and 4,973,701). Such combinations allow considerable Reduction in the amount of oil required to incorporate the UV absorbers into the photographic layer in question. This results in a small layer thickness or, if the layer thickness is kept constant, a higher concentration of UV absorber.

Combinations of the triazines with other types of UV absorbers such as benzophenones, oxanilides, cyanoacrylates, salicylic acid esters, acrylonitriles or thiazolines are also suitable for use in photographic materials.

In particular, photographic materials similar to those described in US-A-4,518,686 can be stabilized with good success.

The material according to the invention preferably contains intermediate gelatin layers between the silver halide emulsion layers.

In a further preferred embodiment, the material according to the invention contains a further layer with a UV absorber of the formula (I), which is arranged between the green and red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer.

Good results are also achieved if the UV absorber of the formula (I) is additionally contained in the red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer.

In the layer between the green- and red-sensitive layer and / or in the red-sensitive layer, benzotriazole compounds can advantageously be used instead of the UV absorbers of the formula (I).

wherein T ₁ , T ₂ and T _{3 are} independently hydrogen, halogen, alkyl, alkyl substituted with a carboxylic acid ester group, alkoxy, aryloxy, hydroxyl or acyloxy, and T _{4 is} hydrogen, alkoxy, aryloxy or acyloxy.

Those compounds of formula (III) which are liquid at room temperature are particularly preferred.

where T ₁ , T ₂ and T _{3 are} independently hydrogen, halogen, alkyl, alkyl substituted with a carboxylic acid ester group, alkoxy, aryloxy, hydroxyl or acyloxy and T _{4 is} hydrogen, alkoxy, aryloxy or acyloxy, and (b) that Material has at least one further layer which contains a UV absorber of the formula (I).

The further layer is preferably arranged between the green and red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer.

In a further preferred embodiment, the photographic material additionally contains a UV absorber of the formula (I) in the red-sensitive layer. It can also be advantageous if the UV absorber of the formula (I) is replaced by one of the formula (III) in the further layer or in the red-sensitive layer; but at least one layer should contain a UV absorber of the formula (I).

Preferred photographic materials contain intermediate gelatin layers between the silver halide emulsion layers.

In a further embodiment of the present invention, the photographic material contains at least 2 silver halide emulsion layers with a layer between these layers with a UV absorber, characterized in that the UV absorber corresponds to the formula (I). The two silver halide emulsion layers are preferably a green-sensitive and a red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer. Furthermore, a corresponding material is preferred, in which the red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer additionally contains a UV absorber of the formula (I) or (III).

Another embodiment of the present invention relates to photographic material having a red sensitive silver halide emulsion layer on a support and optionally also contains a blue-sensitive and / or green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, characterized in that the red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer contains a UV absorber of the formula (I). It preferably contains a layer with a UV absorber of the formula (III) between the red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer and the support.

Furthermore, it can be advantageous if all or part of the layers which can contain a UV absorber have a mixture of the UV absorbers of the formulas (I) and (III).

Preferred photographic materials are those which contain silver chloride bromide, which consists of at least 90 mol% silver chloride, as silver halide in the blue-sensitive, green-sensitive and / or red-sensitive layer.

Furthermore, photographic materials are preferred which contain the silver halide emulsion layers in the order of blue-sensitive, green-sensitive and red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layers.

The photographic materials according to the invention offer the advantage over materials with benzotriazole UV absorbers that the UV absorbers of the formula (I) are required in a comparatively small amount in order to ensure adequate protection against UV radiation. This means that the thickness of the layers in which the UV absorbers of the formula (I) are incorporated can be very thin, which is e.g. has a positive effect on the sharpness of the images made with this material. Obviously, the use of a comparable amount of UV absorber will result in even better protection.

Examples of stabilizers for the magenta couplers are:

Usual silver chloride, bromide or iodide emulsions can be used as silver halide emulsions or mixtures thereof such as silver chlorobromide and silver chloroiodide emulsions, in which the silver halides can have all known crystal forms. The use of silver chloride emulsions is of particular importance in the material according to the invention. The preparation of such emulsions and their sensitization are described in RESEARCH DISCLOSURE, November 1989, No. 307.105. This publication also mentions a number of binders for the emulsions mentioned, which can also be used in the materials according to the invention. The same applies to the carriers mentioned in the publication.

The silver halide emulsion which can be used in the practice of this invention can be sensitized for all desired wavelengths by means of sensitizing pigments. For this purpose, cyanine pigments, merocyanine pigments, holopolar pigments, hemicyanine pigments, styryl pigments or hemioxanol pigments can be used.

Water-soluble dyes can be contained in the photosensitive material, for example to improve clarity by preventing radiation damage. Oxonol dyes, hemioxonol dyes, styryl dyes, merocyanine dyes, cyanine dyes, anthraquinone dyes and azo dyes can be used for this.

Other materials, such as those described in JP-A-87 / 215,272, 92 / 9,035, 92 / 21,840 and EP-A-429,240, can also be used with the material according to the invention.

EXAMPLE 1 A gelatin layer which contains silver bromide, a magenta coupler and a stabilizer is first applied to a carrier material coated with polyethylene, then a gelatin layer which contains the UV absorber of the formula (I) (top layer).

The gelatin layers contain the following components (each m ² carrier material): component AgBr layer Top layer gelatin 5.15 g 1.2 g Hardening agent 300 mg 40 mg Wetting agent 85 mg 100 mg Silver bromide 520 mg * - 260 mg ** - Isononyl phosphate A 510 mg Magenta coupler 0.535 mM - UV absorber - 300 mg stabilizer B - * when using 4-equivalent couplers, ** when using
2-equivalent couplers
A (amount of oil) = 50% of the amount of magenta coupler,
B (amount of stabilizer) = 35% of the amount of magenta coupler

2,4-dichloro-6-hydroxytriazine is used as the hardener and the sodium salt of diisobutylnaphthalenesulfonic acid as the wetting agent.

The amounts of magenta coupler and stabilizer are given in Table 2.

A step wedge with a density difference of 0.15 logE per step is exposed on each of the samples thus obtained and then processed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions in processing process E + 2 from Kodak for negative color papers.

After exposure and processing, the reflectance density in green is measured for the magenta step with a density between 0.9 and 1.1 of the wedge. Then the wedge is exposed in a Atlas exposure device with a total of 45 kJ / cm ² and the remission density is measured again.

The dye loss (-ΔD) in% is given in Table 2.

The composition of the gelatin layers (per m ² ) is as follows: component AgBr layer Top layer gelatin 5.15 g 1.2 g Harder 300 mg 40 mg Wetting agent 170 mg 100 mg Silver bromide 260 mg - Tricresyl phosphate A 510 mg Cyan couplers 0.535 mM - UV absorber - 300 mg A (amount of oil) = 1.5 x amount of cyan couplers

The amounts of the cyan coupler are given in Table 3:

After exposure and processing as described in Example 1, the reflectance density in red for the cyan stage is measured with a density between 0.9 and 1.1 of the wedge. Then the wedge is exposed in a Atlas exposure device with a total of 30 kJ / cm ² and the remission density is measured again. The dye density loss (-ΔD) in% is given in Table 3.

A smaller decrease in the density of the cyan dye can be found in the samples which contain a UV absorber according to the invention.

Example 3: The procedure is as in Example 1, but without a stabilizer and using a yellow coupler.

The composition of the gelatin layers (per m ² ) is as follows: component AgBr layer Top layer gelatin 5.15 g 1.2 g Hardening agent 300 mg 40 mg Wetting agent (anionic) 340 mg 100 mg Silver bromide 520 mg - Tricresyl phosphate A 510 mg Yellow coupler 1.07 mM - UV absorber - 300 mg A (amount of oil) = 33% of the amount of yellow coupler

The amount of yellow coupler is given in Table 4.
