[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a silver halide photographic light-sensitive material having improved inter-image effect, improved sharpness, and reduced fog during storage before exposure.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art By color-developing a silver halide color photographic material, an oxidized aromatic primary amine color developing agent and a coupler react to react with indophenol, indoaniline, indamine, azomethine, phenoxazine and phenazine. It is known that a color image is formed by forming a dye and a dye similar thereto. In this method, a subtractive color method is usually used for color reproduction, and a silver halide emulsion selectively exposed to blue, green, and red, and a yellow, magenta, and cyan color image forming agent having a complementary color relationship with each of them. And are used. In order to form a yellow color image, for example, acylacetanilide or a dizonezoylmethane-based coupler is used, and in order to form a magenta color image, mainly pyrazolone, pyrazolotriazole, pyrazolobenzimidazole, pyrazolopyrazole, Cyanoacetophenone or indazolone couplers are used, and mainly phenol or naphthols are used for forming a cyan image. By the way, the dyes produced from these couplers are not ideal spectral absorption spectra, and in particular, magenta and cyan dyes have broad absorption spectra or have sub-absorption in the short wavelength region, which may cause color photographic effects. Not desirable for color reproduction of material. In particular, the secondary absorption in the short wavelength region tends to cause a decrease in saturation. As a means for improving this, it can be improved to some extent by expressing an inter-image effect. As one of means for improving the inter-image effect, US Pat. Nos. 3,379,529 and 3,62.
0,746, 4,377,634, 4,33
Examples thereof include DIR hydroquinone disclosed in JP-A-2,878, JP-A-49-129,536 and the like. These DIR hydroquinones release a development inhibitor by being oxidized during the development process. However, until now, the more the DIR hydroquinone improves the interimage effect, the more the DIR hydroquinone is oxidized during the development process. When the speed of the raw film is increased, the fog increases with the passage of time of the raw film, and the fog increases during development, which is a very serious problem in photographic performance. vice versa,
When the reducibility of DIR hydroquinone was reduced to the extent that these fogs did not increase, the reducing power during development processing was insufficient, the amount of development inhibitor released was small, and the inter-image effect could not be improved. . Also, there are known U.S. Pat. No. 2,131,03
No. 8, No. 2,694,716, No. 2,444,605
No. 2,232,707, when an antifoggant is used in combination with this DIR hydroquinone, the fog can be suppressed to some extent, but the development activity of DIR hydroquinone decreases, so that the interimage effect also decreases. As described above, it has been very difficult to develop a large interimage effect without increasing the fog caused by DIR hydroquinone. There has been a strong demand for a technique of exhibiting an inter-image effect while suppressing the increase of fog caused by DIR hydroquinone.

When reversal processing is carried out, black and white development is usually carried out before color development. 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 color developing solution and the black and white developing solution generally have a pH of 9 to 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 1 square meter of the light-sensitive material, and it is 500 ml or less by reducing the bromide ion concentration in the replenishing solution. You can also do it. When the replenishment amount is reduced, it is preferable to prevent the liquid evaporation and air oxidation by reducing the contact area of the treatment tank with the air. 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. Is. As a method of reducing the aperture ratio in this way, in addition to providing a cover such as a floating lid on the photographic processing liquid surface of the processing tank, a method using a movable lid described in JP-A-1-82033 is disclosed. The slit development processing method described in 63-216050 can be mentioned. Reducing the aperture ratio is not limited to both the color development and black and white development steps, but also the subsequent steps such as bleaching, bleach-fixing,
It is preferably applied in all steps such as fixing, washing with water, and stabilization. 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 between 2 and 5 minutes, but the processing time can be further shortened by using a high temperature and high pH and using a color developing agent at a high concentration.

The photographic emulsion layer after color development is usually bleached. The bleaching process may be performed simultaneously with the fixing process (bleach-fixing process), or may be performed individually. 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 according to the purpose. As the bleaching agent, compounds of polyvalent metals such as iron (III), peracids, quinones, nitro compounds and the like are used. As a typical bleaching agent, an organic complex salt of iron (III),
For example, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid, cyclohexanediaminetetraacetic acid, methyliminodiacetic acid, 1,3-diaminopropanetetraacetic acid, glycol etherdiaminetetraacetic acid, and other aminopolycarboxylic acids, or complex salts such as citric acid, tartaric acid, and malic acid. Etc. can be used. Of these, iron (III) aminopolycarboxylates such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid iron (III) complex salts and 1,3-diaminopropanetetraacetic acid iron (III) complex salts
Complex salts are preferable from the viewpoint of rapid processing 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 iron (III) aminopolycarboxylic acid 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 desilvering process, it is preferable that the stirring is as strong 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 Method to increase the effect, further moving the photosensitive material while the emulsion surface is in contact with the wiper blade provided in the solution to further improve the stirring effect by making the emulsion surface turbulent, circulation of the entire processing solution There is a method of increasing the flow rate. Such a stirring improving means is effective in 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 consequently 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 action of the bleaching accelerator.

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 washed with water and / or stabilized after the desilvering treatment. The amount of rinsing water in the rinsing step 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 method such as countercurrent, forward flow, and various other conditions. It can be set in a wide range.
Of these, the relationship between the number of washing tanks and the water volume in the multi-stage countercurrent system is as follows.

[Table 4]

After cutting the obtained samples 101 to 115 into a strip form, wedge exposure was performed through a red filter, and uniform exposure was performed through a green filter. Next, exposure was performed with a soft X-ray to a width of 20 μm and a width of 1 mm, and the edge effect was evaluated to check the sharpness. The treatment was performed in the following treatment steps. The edge effect was evaluated by measuring the densities of 1 mm width and 20 μm width through a red filter with a micro dark clock and taking the ratio of those densities. The inter-image effect was evaluated by the difference between the magenta density in the portion where the cyan color density was 2.0 and the magenta density in the area where the cyan color density was Dmin (minimum color density). Next, each sample is 60 ℃ 60% R
Stored under H condition for 7 days, room temperature (25 ℃ 55% RH)
The maximum density of the cyan color-developing layer was compared with that of the cyan color-developing layer and the difference in density (ΔDmax) was used for evaluation during storage. The obtained results are shown in Table 4.

As is clear from Table 4, when the DIR compound of the present invention is used, the interimage effect and the edge effect are large, and the decrease in maximum density during storage (ΔDmax, corresponding to increase in fog) is small. Further, the graininess of the cyan image and the magenta image had the same performance when the compound of the present invention was used.
