' New Jersey N. Y., a corporation vof- No Drawing. Application July 20, 1949,

22 Claims. (01. 95-7) Thisinvention relates to the sensitization of 2 It is, accordingly, an object of our invention to provide an improved process for sensitizing photographic silver halide emulsions. Other objects will become apparent hereinafter.
In accordance, with our invention, we incorporate in a photographic silver halide emulsion, before or during the final digestion, a water-insoluble gold compound which has-a solubility in soluble silver salt and a Water-soluble halide;
in the presence of a carrier, e. g. gelatin. v (2) Digestion, wherein the above precipitate is heated for a period of time at a"'raised 'te'nr'iperature, e. g. 50 to 60 -C., with or without the addition of further carrier, e. g. gelatin. i (3) Washing, wherein the digested, solidified (e. g. by chilling) emulsion is washed to remove soluble salts.
Melting out and second digestion, wherein the washed emulsion is melted and the resulting flowable emulsion is heated for a period of time, with or without the addition of further carrier, e. g. gelatin.
Of course, variations of the above four, steps can be employed. An emulsion, when used without employing a step, such as (3) ,we call an unwashed, finished emulsion. j An emulsion, when used following completion of all .four steps, we calla washed, finished emulsion. The latter is the type of emulsion generally used.
During the last step, i. e. the melting-out and second digestion, the emulsion increases in sensitivity. To increase the .speed of photographic emulsions various substances have been added at various stages in the preparation of the emulsions. Usually the additions are made during one of the digestion periods. Frequently sulfur compounds, 1. e. so-called sulfur sensitizers have been added, e. g. allyl isothiocyanate, thiourea,
thiocarbanilide, etc., have been added. More re- I cently, it hasvbeen proposed to employ ammonium and/ or metal thiocyanates for this purpose. Still water not greater than the equivalent of 1.0 mg. of gold (metallic) per 100 ml. of water at 25 C. and digest the emulsion in the presence of the gold compound. Gold compounds having a solubility in water as low as, the equivalent of 0.03 mg. per 100 ml. of water at 25 C. can be employed, as can gold compounds of still lower solubility.
- Typical of such water-insoluble gold commore recently water-soluble gold salts have been proposed for the same'purpose. r a .We have now found that the sensitivity-"of photographic silver halide emulsions can: be greatly increased by digesting the emulsions. in the presence of water-insoluble gold compounds rather than water-soluble gold salts, even though the solubility of the gold compounds "is so low that the concentration of gold ions in the emulsionlas compared with the concentrationpbtained when water-soluble .gold salts are. employed) is very low, indeed. I
Any other water-insoluble gold compound which has a solubility in water not greater than the equivalent of 1.0 mg. of gold'per 100 ml. of water at C. can be used in practicing our invention. The water-insoluble gold compounds can be added to the emulsions, before or during the finaldigestion, in solution in suitable organic solvents or as colloidal dispersions. Typical organic solvents include acetic acid, acetone, pyridine, methyl alcohol, etc. Colloidal dispersions in gelatin, polyvinyl alcohol; partially hydrolyzed cellulose acetate, casein can be used.
Advantageously the level of pH during the digestion of. the emulsion, in the presence of the gold compound, is. maintained at or below 9, al-
though this is not essential. Generally speaking the best results are obtained bydigesting the emulsions at a pH of from 5 to 9, in the presence of the water-insoluble gold compound. Digestion of the emulsions in the presence of the gold compounds is. advantageously efiected at from C. to 65 0., although other temperatures can beusedz, A- temperature range of to C. ordinarily gives the best results.
Ordinarily, it is advantageous toemploy a concentration of the water-insoluble gold compound equivalent to from 2.5 to 1000 mg. of gold per kilogram of silver nitrate used in preparing the emulsion; most advantageously a concentration of water-insoluble gold compound equivalent to from 2 to 30 mg. of gold per kilogram of silver nitrate used in preparing the, emulsion is employed.
Advantageously, theemuisions are digested in 4 or a CSSC group- Typical of such sulfur sensitizers' are:
I Calh--S-GHz-CHz-C 0 0H B-Ethyl xanthate propionic acid Normal gelatins contain small amounts of sulfur compounds, such as thiosinamineor allylisothiocyanate, but it is neverthelessfrequentlyadvantageous to add to the gelatin emulsions additional sulfur sensitizers. Beneficial effects are also obtainedby adding: to the emulsions at least one metalv or ammonium thiocyanate, e. g. alkali metal thiocyanates (e. g. sodium or potassium thiocyanate) alkaline earth metal thiocyanates (e. g. calciumv thiocyanate, strontium thiocyanate, etc), cadmium thiocyanate, ammonium thiocyanate, etc. Of" course, thiocyanates containing cations which cations are knownto have, inthemselves, a deleterious effect onsilver' halide emulsions. should. be avoided: Otherwise, the beneficial effects. attained with the. thiocyanate would be partially nullified by the deleterious action. of the cation. Thus. iron thiocyanate which contains .the ironcation should be avoided. One or more sulfur sensitizers or one or more thiocyanates. selected. from the group consisting of metal and ammonium thiocyanates can be employed. Oneor. more sulfur sensitizers can be employed in conjunction with one or more thiocyanates containing a cation selected. from the group consisting of metal and ammonium cations. The sulfunsensitizers and'thiocyanates are advantageously. incorporated in the 3111111! sionsinz the form: of: their solutions in asuitable solvent, such: as water, methyl or ethyl alcohol.
The: sulfur sensitizerscan be incorporated:v in the emulsions atanystageof the preparationof the emulsions, e. g. during; precipitation ofthe silver halides, during the first digestions. (ripening.) enduring: the second digestion of the'emulsi'ons; When incorporating metal and ammo.- nium thiocyanates. in the emulsions prior: to washing,v the-amount. can vary widely. Advan! tageousl'y, however; an amount of thiocyanate equal to. from; about 1 0 to about 75 g. per kilogram of silver nitrate: used in. preparing the emulsion is employedi If the. thi'ocyan'ate: or sulfur sensi tizer is: not. &ddEduntl1i later. in. thepreparation, 6. g.. after washing, it is advantageous:- to. employ;
, in. the. case ot'tlie thiocyanates; anamount-equal the additional presence of at least one sulfur compound, e. g. a sulfur sensitizer, for instance an organic compound containing a C=S group toziromrabout 021:". to about; 10: g, per. kilogram. of silver nitrate used in: preparing. the. emulsionand the. case? of. the. other sulfur; sensitizeraz'an amount equaito' from; aboutimllx to about mg. per": kilogram of! the: silver nitrateaused. in preparing? theiemulsioni.
It: is.- advantageous: to: digest, i'. e. to. heat: treat the. emulsion. with. both the water-insoluble. gold compound and; the sulfurasensitizer. or thiocyanatepresent; at; an appropriate temperature, e. g; atirom lofl to F; During digestion, i.-e:the second digestion as contrasted with thefirst di 5. gesti on or ripeningl the' pH of -tli'eemulsion -is advantageously adjusted to between S -and '7.

Materials other than gelatin can be employed as the carrier for the silver halide in practicing our invention. Among the non-gelatin silver halide emulsions aresilver halide emulsions prepared using as the vehicle or carrier polyvinyl alcohol (polyvinyl alcoho is herein intended to' include all water-soluble hydrolyzed polyvinyl esters containing an ester group content equivalent to from to- 5% by weight of polyvinyl ester); silver halide emulsions prepared using as the vehicle or carrier hydrolyzed polyvinyl acetate containingan' acetate group content equivalent'to from 59 to 71% by weight of polyvinylacetate; silver halide emulsions prepared using as the vehicle or carrier polyvinyl acetals containing a large proportionof polyvinyl alcohol hydroxylgroups, e. g. polyvinyl acetaldehyde acetals containing polyvinyl acetaldehyde acetal groups equivalent to at least by weight of polyvinyl acetaldehyde acetal and polyvinyl alcohol hydroxyl groups equivalent to at least 15 by weight of polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl propionaldehyde acetals containing polyvinyl alcohol hydroxyl groups equivalent to from 45 to by weight of polyvinyl alcohol, and polyvinyl butyraldehyde acetals containing polyvinyl alcohol hydroxyl groups equivalent to from 60 to 80% by weight of polyvinyl alcohol, etc. Any polyvinyl compound, especially those containing only carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms, or
those containing carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and amine nitrogen atoms or ammonium nitrogen atoms, which is soluble in a mixture of ethyl alcohol and water (containing from 0 to 50% by volume of ethyl alcohol) to the extent of 10 g. per 100 g. of solvent can be employed as the vehicle or carrier in preparing our non-gelatin silver halide emulsions. Moreover, any other resinous or colloidal material soluble in an ethyl alcoholwater mixture or in water, as stated above, can be employed in preparing our non-gelatin silver halide emulsions, e. g. soluble polyamide resins, such as described in United States Patent 2,384,072, dated September'4, 1945, and hydrolyzed copolymers of vinyl esters and ethylene or propylene, such as described in United States Patent 2,397,866, dated April 2, 1946. Still fur! sions inwhich the silver halide 'is principally 10 ther examples of colloidal materials which can be employed as vehicles or'carriers in preparing our non-gelatin emulsions arehydrolyzed cellulose carboxylic esters, such as hydrolyzed cellulose acetate or hydrolyzed cellulose acetate propionate, containing from 19 to 33% by weight of acyl groups, for example. Any cellulose compound, especially those containing only carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms, or those containing only carbon, hydrogen, oxygen andamino nitrogen atoms or ammonium nitrogen atoms, which is soluble in 'a mixture of ethyl alcohol and water (containing from 0 to 50% alcohol) to the extent of 10 g. per g. of solvent can be employed as the .vehicle or carrier in preparing our sions.
In connection with the non-gelatin colloidal materials, such as polyvinyl'alcohol the silver halide emulsions can be prepared using gelling agents, such as phenols, e. g. orcinol, gallic acid, 2,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid, 4-chlororesorcinol, o: naphthol, phloroglucinol, 2,7-dihydroxynaphtha-- lene, etc. Moreover, the non-gelatin silver halide emulsions can be prepared using silver halide dispersingagents, e; g'; starch acetate, gum arabic, a copolymerof maleicanhydride and vinyl acetate,'low viscosity methyl cellulose, water-soluble amino carbohydrate dispersing agents (e. g. diethanolamine cellulose acetate or any other of these agents described in' United States Patent 2,360,238, dated October 10, 1944) amino resin dispersing agents (e. g. dimethylaminobenzaldehyde acetals ofpolyvin'yl alcohol, or water-solunon-gelatin silver halide emulble polyvinyl acetals in which at least a part of the acetal groups are 4'formylphenyltrialkylammonium saltacetal'grouDs, such as the polyvinyl acetal of 4formylp'henyl 'trimethylammonium methylsulfate and other such compounds described in United States Patent 2,358,836, dated September 26, 1944), etc.
