Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material, and more specifically, it has excellent image sharpness and color reproducibility, and has improved contamination by residual dye after development processing. The present invention relates to a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material generally has a silver halide emulsion layer that is sensitive to each of the three primary colors of blue, green and red, and each of them develops yellow, magenta and cyan, so-called reduced color. Reproduce the color image using the method. Therefore, the reproduced color image is affected by the wavelength range (spectral sensitivity distribution) of each layer, and is greatly influenced by the hues of the yellow, magenta, and cyan colors of each layer, that is, the spectral absorption characteristics of the coloring dyes. .. In general, these characteristics are not sufficient to satisfy the theoretically considered ideal system due to various restrictions of the materials used. For example, with respect to the problem of spectral sensitivity distribution, a great deal of effort has been conventionally made to improve the spectral sensitivity distribution, including the development of new sensitizing dyes. It is also known that the spectral sensitivity distribution is affected by the dye used in the light-sensitive material. Such dyes have been studied for the purpose of preventing irradiation and halation, especially for the purpose of improving sharpness. Examples of such dyes include oxonol-based dyes, azo-based dyes and anthraquinone-based dyes, but in selecting the dyes, it is necessary to pay attention so that addition of the dyes does not adversely affect photographic properties. As adverse effects of these dyes, deterioration of raw storage stability, decolorization during processing, deterioration of white background due to insufficient elution, image contamination by suppressing desilvering rate, and promotion of latent image regression, It is known that sensitivity is reduced and fog is increased. For example, JP-A-52-20830 describes a color light-sensitive material containing a water-soluble dye of bispyrazolone pentamethine oxonol having a spectral absorption maximum in the wavelength range of 580 to 630 nm. When this dye is used, the spectral sensitivity distribution of the red-sensitive layer or the green-sensitive layer is improved, and although the effect of improving the color reproducibility is observed, the storage stability of the light-sensitive material is deteriorated, and the color of the dye after the above-mentioned processing is changed. There were many problems to be solved, such as being easily left in the image. JP-A-51-1419 discloses a bispyrazolone monomethine oxonol dye having an absorption maximum at a wavelength shorter than 440 nm and capable of absorbing blue light having a short wavelength of 390 to 440 nm, and a bispyrazolone trimethine having an absorption maximum at 460 to 520 nm. It is stated that an oxonol dye is used to improve the spectral sensitivity distribution of a blue-sensitive emulsion layer. However, also in this case, there are many similar problems such that the color of the dye tends to remain in the image after the processing. by the way,
In a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material, three types of couplers that form dyes of yellow, magenta and cyan are usually used in order to perform color reproduction by a subtractive method.
Among these, as the yellow coupler, an acylacetanilide type coupler having an active methylene (methine) group is generally known (TH James, "The.
Theory of the Photographic Process "
4th edition, p. 354). However, these couplers have broad spectral absorption and have a long-wave end tailing, and the effect of improving color reproducibility was insufficient even if the spectral sensitivity distribution was improved by the dye described above. Further, the dye formed by these yellow couplers has a lower extinction coefficient than the dyes of magenta and cyan couplers, and in order to obtain a sufficiently high color density, a coupler, a coupler dispersion medium, a silver halide emulsion, a binder, etc. It was necessary to incorporate a large amount of the above in the emulsion layer of the color photographic light-sensitive material. As a result, the coating thickness of the emulsion layer of the color photographic light-sensitive material is increased, and not only the sharpness is deteriorated, but also the dye color tends to remain after the processing.

[0003]

When the reversal process is carried out, black and white development is usually carried out and then color development is carried out. In this black-and-white developer, known black-and-white developing agents such as dihydroxybenzenes such as hydroquinone, 3-pyrazolidones such as 1-phenyl-3-pyrazolidone or aminophenols such as N-methyl-p-aminophenol are used alone. Alternatively, they can be used in combination. The pH of these color developing solution and black-and-white developing solution is generally 9-12. The replenishing amount of these developing solutions depends on the color photographic light-sensitive material to be processed, but is generally 3 liters or less per square meter of the light-sensitive material, and is reduced to 500 ml or less by reducing the bromide ion concentration in the replenishing solution. You can also When the replenishment amount is reduced, it is preferable to prevent the liquid evaporation and air oxidation by reducing the contact area with the air in the processing tank. The contact area between the photographic processing liquid and air in the processing tank can be represented by the aperture ratio defined below. That is, aperture ratio = [contact area between treatment liquid and air (cm ² )] ÷ [volume of treatment liquid (cm ³ )] The above aperture ratio is preferably 0.1 or less, and more preferably 0.001 to 0.05.

The slit developing method described in No. 50 can be mentioned. Reducing the aperture ratio is preferably applied not only in both the color developing step and the black and white developing step but also in the subsequent steps, for example, all the steps such as bleaching, bleach-fixing, fixing, washing and stabilizing. Further, the amount of replenishment can be reduced by using a means for suppressing the accumulation of bromide ions in the developing solution. The color development processing time is usually set to 2 to 5 minutes, but the processing time can be further shortened by setting the temperature and high pH and using the color developing agent at a high concentration.

The photographic emulsion layer after color development is usually bleached. The bleaching process may be performed at the same time as the fixing process (bleach-fixing process) or separately. Further, in order to speed up the processing, a processing method of bleach-fixing processing after bleaching processing may be used. Further, treatment with two continuous bleach-fixing baths, fixing treatment before the bleach-fixing treatment, or bleaching treatment after the bleach-fixing treatment can be optionally carried out. As the bleaching agent, compounds of polyvalent metals such as iron (III), peracids, quinones, nitro compounds and the like are used. Typical bleaching agents include organic complex salts of iron (III), such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid, cyclohexanediaminetetraacetic acid, methyliminodiacetic acid, 1,3-diaminopropanetetraacetic acid and glycol etherdiaminetetraacetic acid. Polycarboxylic acids or complex salts of citric acid, tartaric acid, malic acid and the like can be used. Of these, aminopolycarboxylic acid iron (III) complex salts such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid iron (III) complex salt and 1,3-diaminopropanetetraacetic acid iron (III) complex salt are preferable from the viewpoint of rapid treatment and prevention of environmental pollution. .. Further, the aminopolycarboxylic acid iron (III) complex salt is particularly useful in both the bleaching solution and the bleach-fixing solution. The pH of a bleaching solution or a bleach-fixing solution using these aminopolycarboxylic acid iron (III) complex salts is usually 4.0 to 8, but a lower pH can be used for speeding up the processing.

If necessary, a bleaching accelerator can be used in the bleaching solution, the bleach-fixing solution and their pre-bath.

In the preferable temperature range, the desilvering rate is improved and the stain generation after the processing is effectively prevented. In the desilvering process, it is preferable that the stirring is strengthened as much as possible.
As a specific method for strengthening stirring, a method of impinging a jet of a processing solution on the emulsion surface of the light-sensitive material described in JP-A-62-183460, or stirring using a rotating means of JP-A-62-183461 is used. Method of improving the effect, further moving the photosensitive material while the emulsion surface is in contact with the wiper blade provided in the solution to make the emulsion surface turbulent to further improve the stirring effect, circulation of the entire processing solution There is a method of increasing the flow rate. Such a stirring improving means is effective for any of the bleaching solution, the bleach-fixing solution and the fixing solution. It is considered that the improvement of the stirring speeds up the supply of the bleaching agent and the fixing agent into the emulsion film and, as a result, increases the desilvering rate. Further, the above-mentioned stirring improving means is more effective when a bleaching accelerator is used, and it is possible to remarkably increase the accelerating effect and eliminate the fixing inhibiting effect of the bleaching accelerator.

As described in No. 0-191257, such a conveying means can significantly reduce the carry-in of the treatment liquid from the front bath to the rear bath, and is highly effective in preventing the performance deterioration of the treatment liquid. Such effects are particularly effective in shortening the processing time in each step and reducing the amount of processing liquid replenishment.

The silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material of the present invention is generally subjected to a washing and / or stabilizing step after desilvering. The amount of rinsing water in the rinsing process depends on the characteristics of the photosensitive material (for example, depending on the materials used such as couplers), application, and further, the rinsing water temperature, the number of rinsing tanks (number of stages), replenishment system such as countercurrent, forward flow, and other various conditions. It can be set in a wide range.
Of these, the relationship between the number of washing tanks and the amount of water in the multi-stage countercurrent system is as follows.
