Definitions
- the invention is related to a light-sensitive silver halide photographic material having satisfactory developability, reduced pressure sensitivity and excellent surface characteristics after processing in both hardener containing and hardener free processing.
- EP-A 0 806 705 wherein a method has been disclosed of processing an image-wise exposed light-sensitive silver halide material by the steps of developing, fixing in a fixer solution containing less than 4 g per litre of aluminum ions expressed as an equivalent amount of aluminum sulphate, rinsing and drying; characterized in that said material comprises a support and on one or both sides thereof at least one light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer and a gelatinous protective antistress layer, wherein said antistress layer comprises at least one polymer latex in such an amount that there is a ratio by weight of latex to gelatin is from 0.5 to 1.5 and wherein said material is hardened to such an extent that its swelling degree after immersing said material for 3 minutes in demineral
- a light-sensitive silver halide photographic material comprising a support and on one or both sides thereof at least one light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, a gelatinous protective antistress layer and, adjacent thereto as an outermost layer, a gelatinous afterlayer characterized in that said afterlayer comprises at least one polymer latex, being a polybutylacrylate, a polybutylmethacrylate latex or a polyurethane latex, or a copolymer latex being a copolymer poly(butyl methacrylate) polyacrylamide N-substituted sulfo-isobutyl salt, in a ratio amount by weight of (co)polymer latex to gelatin from 0.2:1 up to 5:1 and a total amount of (co)polymer latex and gelatin of at least 0.10 g/m 2 .
- Preferred (co)polymer latices used in the protective antistress layer and/or outermost afterlayer of the light-sensitive silver halide material according to the present invention are cross-linked polymers and can be prepared as described e.g. in US-A 4,301,240 by emulsion polymerisation of aliphatic esters of acrylic and/or methacrylic acid in water in the presence of polyfunctional crosslinking monomers and an emulsifier, followed by saponification of the obtained copolymer.
- emulsion polymerisation copolymers with a molecular weight well above 500,000 are obtained and the average particle size of the latex is smaller than 150 nm.
- Another example of the synthesis of ionic cross-linked copolymers can further be found e.g. in EP-A 0 452 568 and the corresponding US-A 5,472,832.
- a particularly preferred latex of an ionic copolymer for use in the gelatinous protective antistress layer of a light-sensitive silver halide material is a copolymer of butyl methacrylate and acrylamide-N-isobutylsulphonic acid sodium salt as represented in the formula (I).
- a ratio amount of butylmethacrylate and and acrylamide-N-isobutyl-sulphonic acid sodium salt is at least 80:20 and more preferably about 95:5.
- Latex compounds are polybutylacrylate and polybutylmethacrylate as examples of non-ionic polymer latex compounds. It is not excluded to use them in combination, e.g. in a mixture with each other or even with other polymers dispersed as a latex as there are polymethylmethacrylate, polymethylacrylate, polyethylacrylate latex compounds and the like.
