Definitions

  • This invention relates to improvements in photographic elements and more particularly in photographic elements having light screening substances therein.
  • screening substance may be in a layer overlying a light sensitive emulsion or overlying two or more light sensitive emulsions; or it may be in a light sensitive emulsion for the purpose of modifying a light record in such emulsion or of protecting an underlying light sensitive emulsion or emulsions from the action of light of wave length absorbed by such light screening substance; or it may be in a layer not containing a light sensitive substance but arranged between two light sensitive emulsions; or it may be in a layer serving as a backing on an element having one or more light sensitive emulsions (for example, to reduce halation.)
  • light screening substances are often required (a) in overcoatings upon photographic elements to protect the light sensitive emulsion or emulsions from the action of light which it is not desired to record, e. g. ultra-violet light in the case of still or moving pictures, especially color pictures, (b) in layers arranged between differentially color-sensitized emulsions, e. g. to protect redand green-sensitized emulsions from the action of blue light and (c) in backings, forming the so-called anti-halation layers, on either-side of a transparent support carrying the light-sensitive emulsion or emulsions.
  • a transparent support carrying the light-sensitive emulsion or emulsions.
  • decolorised Such a light or destroyed and removed, prior to or during or after photographic processing; for many purposes it is particularly convenient to employ lightscreening substances which are rendered ineffective by one of the photographic baths employed in processing the element after exposure, e. g. a photographic developing bath or fixing bath or a silver-oxidizing (including silver-removing) bath.
  • a photographic developing bath or fixing bath or a silver-oxidizing (including silver-removing) bath e.g. a photographic developing bath or fixing bath or a silver-oxidizing (including silver-removing) bath.
  • a silver-oxidizing (including silver-removing) bath e.g., silver-oxidizing (including silver-removing) bath.
  • a light screening substance which is rendered ineffective by the developer employed to develop the latent image or images to silver since exposure to light of the residual light sensitive emulsion or emulsions may thereby be facilitated.
  • differentially colorsensitized emulsions constituted, for example, by silver halide, such as silver bromide dispersed in gelatin, collodion or other colloid, are coated on one or both sides of a support, for example in inseparably-superimposed layers.
  • difierentially color-sensitized emulsions have to be processed to difierent colors and to facilitate the differential color-processing, methods involving selective exposure of light sensitive images in the layers may be employed.
  • selective re-exposure e. g.
  • any of the elements referred to above may be such that one or more of the emulsions contain coupling components, e. g. those described in French Patent 834,37l, granted August 16, 1938.

  • Such dyes may have a pyrrole nucleus or an indole nucleus (in either case containing substituents or not) linked to a heterocycllc nucleus containing a nitrogen atom either directly ,or
