Definitions

  • the invention relates to a color photographic recording material with improved color separation, improved darkness and light stability after exposure and processing.
  • the oxidation product of the developer (EOP) is formed in the exposed areas, which couples in the same layer with the coupler present there to form the desired dye (usually yellow, purple or cyan, depending on the layer).
  • the EOP also tends to diffuse into the neighboring layers, which leads to color distortions if it encounters other color couplers there.
  • intermediate layers of gelatin are cast between the light-sensitive, coupler-containing silver halide gelatin layers of different spectral sensitization.
  • the effect of the intermediate layers is usually increased by the addition of so-called EOP scavengers or scavengers, which are compounds which reduce the EOP and are themselves oxidized.
  • EOP scavengers or scavengers are compounds which reduce the EOP and are themselves oxidized.
  • dialkyl substituted hydroquinones e.g. 2,5-dioctylhydroquinone, the alkyl residues of which are intended to prevent diffusion into other layers of the material and the OH groups of which are oxidized by the EOP, while the developer substance is again formed from the EOP, which is leached out with the other developer in the course of the processing process.
  • EOP catcher that can be used is limited, since otherwise considerably thicker intermediate layers would have to be cast, which has an adverse effect on the mechanical properties of the layer, an adverse effect on the development kinetics of the lowest color layer and, because of the increased light scattering, also on the sharpness of the material.
  • the object of the invention was therefore to provide a color photographic material which has a better color separation without loss of sharpness or other required photographic properties.
  • This object is achieved according to the invention in that a combination of EOP scavenger in certain amounts and white coupler in certain amounts is used in the intermediate layer between a red- and the green-sensitive light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer.
  • White couplers are understood to mean those compounds which react with the EOP in the sense of an addition reaction to form a product which does not absorb in the visible region of the spectrum and is therefore colorless.
  • the combination according to the invention when using the combination according to the invention, very small amounts of the two combination partners can be used, as a result of which the layer thickness of the intermediate layer can be reduced by saving gelatin.
  • the EOP catcher used alone would have to be used in much larger amounts in order to achieve a comparable color separation .
  • the combination according to the invention achieves surprising advantages in terms of dark and light stability after exposure and processing. EOP catchers and white couplers alone do not show these advantages.
  • the invention therefore relates to a color photographic silver halide material which has on a support at least one blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing at least one yellow coupler, at least one green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing at least one magenta coupler and at least one red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing at least one cyan coupler and non-light-sensitive intermediate layers Contains silver halide emulsion layers of different spectral sensitization, characterized in that the intermediate layer located between a red-sensitive and a green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer contains at least one EOP scavenger in a total EOP scavenger amount of 0.06 to 0.6 mmol / m 2 and at least one white coupler contains in a total amount of white coupler from 0.01 to 0.8 mmol / m 2 .
  • EOP catchers Mixtures of 2 or more EOP catchers that together meet the required quantity relationship are also to be understood as EOP catchers in the stated amount. The same applies to white couplers.
  • the polymer additionally contains a polymerized ethylenically unsaturated compound M.
  • each in% by weight are contained:
  • the polymers according to the invention preferably have a glass transition temperature of less than 20 ° C.
  • the glass transition temperature is determined by the methods known from differential thermal analysis and differential calorimetry, which are described, for example, in the book "Polymeranalytik II” by Hoffmann, Krämer and Kuhn, Thieme Verlag, Stuttgart 1977.
  • the use of the polymers in photographic materials also surprisingly results improves the mechanical properties, especially the breaking strength.

  • the material can also contain a substrate layer, further intermediate layers, one or more yellow filter layers and one or more protective or cover layers.

  • the blue-sensitive, the green-sensitive and the red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer are usually arranged on the support in the order given. There is no yellow filter layer.
  • AgBr, AgBrCI, AgBrl, AgBrCII and AgCI are suitable as silver halides of the silver halide emulsion layers.
  • the intermediate layer containing the combination according to the invention can further contain a blue or green-sensitized silver halide emulsion, the sensitivity of which is lower than that of the green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing the coupler, which improves the tracing of red tones of high density.
  • the intermediate layer between the green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing a magenta coupler and the red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing a cyan coupler contains a red- or red- and green-sensitized silver halide emulsion.
