Description

Detailed Description of the Invention (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a method for processing a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material, and more specifically, it relates to a method for processing a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material, and more specifically, to a method for processing a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material. The present invention relates to a treatment method that is excellent and has improved adhesion after treatment.

(Prior Art) In recent years, in the photographic processing of color photosensitive materials, it has been desired to shorten the processing time due to the shortening of the finishing delivery time and the reduction of laboratory work. As a way to shorten it.

Common methods include raising the temperature and increasing the amount of replenishment, but many other methods have been proposed, such as strengthening stirring or adding various accelerators.

In particular, for the purpose of speeding up color development and/or reducing the amount of replenishment, color photographic materials containing silver chloride emulsion in place of the conventionally widely used silver bromide thread emulsion or silver iodide emulsion are processed. method is known. for example,
International Publication No. WO 37704534 describes a method for rapidly processing a high silver chloride silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material with a color developer substantially free of sulfite ions and benzyl alcohol. However, it has been found that simply carrying out development processing based on the above method causes fogging and significantly stains the white background.

It was also found that the adhesiveness of the vapor after treatment was poor, and that there was a problem in that adhesive marks remained when photos were stacked together.

As described above, it is clear that rapid processing using high-silver chloride color photographic materials has serious practical problems such as contamination of the white background due to increased fog and deterioration of adhesion, and is not suitable for practical use. became.

JP-A No. 58-95345 describes a method for suppressing fog generated during development processing in a rapid processing method using a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material consisting of a high silver chloride emulsion.
The use of organic antifoggants is known from JP-A-59-232342. However, the anti-fogging effect was insufficient, and furthermore, the use of the anti-fogging agent caused desilvering failure, making it unsuitable for practical use.

In addition, JP-A No. 61-70552 discloses a method for reducing replenishment of the developer by using a high chloride silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material and adding a replenishment amount to the developer bath during development in an amount that does not cause hot bathing. The method is described in JP-A-63-106655.
For the purpose of stabilizing processing, the publication describes that a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material in which the silver halide emulsion layer has a high silver chloride content is treated with a color developing solution containing a hydroxyamine compound and chloride at a predetermined concentration or higher. A method of processing is disclosed.

However, even with these methods, the above-mentioned fogging and deterioration of adhesion were observed, and they were not practical.

Furthermore, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 62-249152 discloses that for the purpose of preventing bleach fog, the concentration of sulfite ions in the developer solution is reduced for photosensitive materials using a specific cyan coupler, and the pH of the bleach-fix solution is adjusted to 4. 5 to 6.8 is disclosed, and JP-A-62-246049 also discloses a processing method using a developer containing dialkylhydroxylamine for the same purpose. There is.

However, with these methods, the effect of suppressing fog is insufficient, the adhesiveness of the processed photographs is high, and the problem of the photographs adhering to each other remains unsolved.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) As described above, when rapid development processing is performed using silver halide consisting of a high silver chloride emulsion, fogging occurs and the white background is significantly contaminated. In addition, the adhesive is highly adhesive, and when photos are stacked or pasted on an album, they tend to adhere to each other, leaving many adhesive marks on the photos if they are forcibly removed.

Therefore, a first object of the present invention is to provide a processing method that uses a high-silver chloride color photographic light-sensitive material and provides a high maximum density even when rapidly developed, and an increase in fog is significantly suppressed.

A second object of the present invention is to provide a processing method in which post-processing adhesiveness is significantly improved in rapid development processing using high-silver chloride color photographic light-sensitive materials.

(Means for Solving the Problems) An object of the present invention is to provide a silver halide color photographic material,
A method of processing with a color developer containing at least one type of aromatic primary amine color developing agent, in which at least one layer contains a silver halide emulsion containing 80 mol% or more of silver chloride, and A silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material containing at least one hardening agent represented by formula (I) was prepared with a chloride ion concentration of 3.5×10 −2
Processing of a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material characterized by processing with a color developer having a concentration of ~1.5 x 10' mol/l and then processing with a bleach-fix solution having a pH of 4.0 to 6.8. achieved by the method.

General formula (I) Xl-So -L-3o -X2 (wherein, X and Xl are -CH=CH or -CH2C
H2Y, Xl and Xl may be the same or different, and Y represents a group that can be substituted by a nucleophilic group or can be removed by a base in the form of HY. L
is a divalent linking group and may be substituted.) As a result of various studies, the present inventors have found that the occurrence of fog during development can be reduced by using the hardening agent of general formula (I) above. It has been found that this can be significantly suppressed by processing a photosensitive material containing chlorine ions with the developer of the present invention containing a predetermined concentration of chlorine ions. Chlorine ions are known as antifogging agents, but even when added in large amounts to the developer, the antifogging effect is insufficient.
Reduced maximum concentration. However, when the above-mentioned hardener was used in combination with the processing solution of the present invention containing a predetermined concentration of chlorine ions, the maximum concentration was high, development fog was prevented, and the developability was significantly improved.

However, the fog that occurs in high-silver chloride color photographic materials includes not only fog caused by development fog but also bleach fog, and it has been found that prevention of development fog alone is insufficient.

As a result of repeated research, we found that by using a bleach-fix solution with a pH of 4.0 to 6.8, bleach fog can be significantly prevented.
It has become possible to develop high-silver chloride color photographic materials without causing fog.

Simply treating the bleach-fix solution with a pH in the range of 4.0 to 6.8 did not prevent bleach fog, but the hardening agent of the above general formula (I) and the present invention The fact that bleach fog can be prevented by the combined use of a developer and a bleach-fix solution of the present invention was unexpected and truly surprising.

The details of these fog prevention mechanisms are unknown, but the balance between chemical factors such as the strength of the developer's activity and the oxidizing power of the bleaching solution, the membrane swelling rate, and the adsorption power of gelatin to silver halide is important. This is thought to be due to

Furthermore, the present inventors have found that the adhesion of photographs after two treatments is improved by using the hardener of the general formula (I) in combination with the bleach-fixing solution of the present invention. It was discovered that the cause of the high value was the presence of alkali metals such as sodium and potassium contained in the photographic material after processing. Then, the photosensitive material using the above hardening agent was adjusted to PH4,
It has been discovered that treatment with a bleach-fix solution of 0 to 6.8 increases the efficiency of washing out alkali metals.

Although the details of the mechanism of washing out alkali metals are unknown, it is thought to be caused by the step-out rate, the isoelectric point of gelatin, the ion exchange efficiency, etc.

The hardener of the general formula (I) used in the present invention will be explained in more detail.

It is described in detail in publications such as No. 18944.

In the present invention, even if the hardening agent is added to the coating solution in advance,
It may be mixed with the coating liquid immediately before coating.

In the present invention, among the compounds represented by general formula (I), particularly preferred compounds are (I-6), (I-1),
(I-2) and (I-4) can be mentioned.

Furthermore, in the present invention, the hardening agent may be added to all of the photographic layers coated on the support (for example, a light-sensitive emulsion layer, an intermediate layer, a surface protection layer, a filter layer, etc.), or may be added to any layer. (
- layer or multiple layers). The amount of hardening agent added is sufficient to harden the gelatinous layer, and is 0.5 x 10 per 100 g of gelatin.
-3 to 100x10 mol, preferably 1.0XIO
It is preferable to use -3 to 30x10-3 moles.

In the present invention, the chloride ion concentration of the color developer is usually 3.5 x 10-2 to 1.5 x 10-' mol/mole,
Preferably it is 4 x 10-2 to 1.0 x 10-1 mol/view. Chlorine ion concentration is 1.5 x 10-1 mol/! ;L
If the amount is larger than this, it has the disadvantage of slowing down the development speed, and the object of the present invention, which is rapid development and high maximum density, cannot be achieved. Further, if the amount is less than 3.5×10""' mol/fi, generation of capri is observed and the effect of the present invention cannot be sufficiently obtained.

Here, the chlorine ion may be added directly to the color developer, or may be eluted from the photosensitive material in the developer. When added directly to color developers, sodium chloride, potassium chloride, ammonium chloride,
Examples include nickel chloride, magnesium chloride, manganese chloride, calcium chloride, and cadmium chloride, among which preferred are sodium chloride and potassium chloride.

Alternatively, it may be supplied from an optical brightener added to the developer. When eluting from a light-sensitive material in a developer, it may be supplied from a silver chloride emulsion or from a fluorescent brightener.

In the present invention, it is necessary to process with a bleach-fix solution having a pH of 4.0 to 6.8. More preferably pH 5.0-6
．． 5 bleach-fix solution. If the pH is lower than 4.0,
Bleaching fog occurs and the adhesion is also high, making it impossible to obtain the effects of the present invention.

If the pH is higher than 6.8, desilvering may be insufficient and the white background may be contaminated, and the adhesive property may be high, so that the object of the present invention cannot be achieved.

To adjust the pH, add hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid,
Nitric acid, acetic acid, fL carbonate, ammonia, caustic potash, caustic soda, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, etc. can be added.

In the present invention, the color developer is 3×10' to 1×10
It is more preferable to contain bromine ions in the amount of = mol/mole from the viewpoint of preventing fogging. In the presence of bromine ions at a concentration of LXlo-3 mol/liter or more, the object of the present invention cannot be achieved in terms of development progress and a decrease in maximum density. It was unexpected and surprising that the presence of bromine ions would significantly prevent fogging.

In the present invention, the bromine ions present in the color developer may be added directly or eluted from the color photographic material.

In the present invention, it is preferable that the color developer does not substantially contain sulfite ions from the viewpoint of preventing fogging.
The term "substantially free" refers to 3 x 10-3 mol/vertical or less.

Sulfite ions are well known as preservatives for developing solutions, and if they do not contain sulfite ions, there is a problem in terms of deterioration of the developing solution.

However, in order to suppress the deterioration of the developer, physical measures such as not using the developer for a long time, using a floating pot to suppress the effects of air oxidation, and reducing the opening degree of the developer tank are used. Alternatively, chemical means such as lowering the developer temperature or adding an organic preservative can be used. Among these, the method using an organic preservative is advantageous in terms of simplicity.

The organic preservative described in the present invention refers to any organic compound that reduces the deterioration rate of aromatic primary amine color developing agents when added to the processing solution of color photographic light-sensitive materials. It is an organic compound converting moiety that has the function of preventing oxidation by air, etc. Among them, hydroxylamine derivatives (excluding hydroxylamine; the same applies hereinafter), hydroxamic acids, hydrazines, hydrazides, phenols, α-hydroxyketones α-aminoketones, sugars, monoamines, diamines, polyamines, quaternary ammonium salts, nitroxy radicals,
