Definitions

  • This invention relates to a technique of setting aqueous protein coatings characterized in that formaldehyde, acrolein or glyoxal is incorporated in the coating solution, and immediately after the solution has been coated onto a surface it is subjected to the action of gaseous ammonia.
  • This invention relates to solutions of proteins in water per se and also to compositions in which the aqueous solution of protein carries therein a photosensitive salt, a pigment or a dye.
  • the coating at the time of application is in liquid condition, and in order to accomplish drying of that coating it is desirable that it first be set. This is ordinarily accomplished by immediately subjecting the liquid coating to a lowered temperature whereby the chilling of the coating causes gelling thereof.
  • the coating may then be dried, such as by applying to the coating a current of dry air.
  • setting only occurs after the coating has been chilled to the setting temperature throughout. Where the chill-setting method is employed in paper coating, any delay of the setting will result in penetration of the paper by the coating liquid. Also, in the drying of the chilled layers it is necessary to guard against a somewhat elevated temperature in the drying air, as the application. of warmth may cause remelting. In the case of some types of proteins which may be employed in coating operations, chilling is ineffective to cause setting of the coating applied.
  • One object of my invention is to provide a procedure for the fast setting of a liquid aqueous coating of protein. Another object of my invention is to make possible the drying of aqueous protein layers at high temperatures without remelting occurring, such as would be experienced where chill-setting is used.
  • a further object of my invention is to provide a method of coating paper with aqueous solutions of proteins wherein the liquid coating composition sets rapidly and penetration of the paper sheet is reduced to a minimum.
  • a still further object of my invention is to provide a method of setting liquid protein coatings in which the use of heavy metal salts in the coating liquid is avoided.
  • a still further object of my invention is to provide a method for setting proteins in the form of their aqueous solutions by which method only clear coatings are obtained.
  • a still further object of my invention is to provide a method of setting protein coatings in which lowering of the temperature is unnecessary.
  • a still further object of my invention is to provide a method of setting photographic gelatin emulsion coatings at temperatures above the gelling point thereof. Other objects of my invention will appear herein.
  • aqueous solutions of proteins particularly gelatin when applied to a surface of paper, film base, cloth or other surfaces may be substantially immediately set if formaldehyde (or acrolein or glyoxal) is incorporated in the coating composition and gaseous ammonia is applied to the liquid layer of aqueous protein.
  • formaldehyde or acrolein or glyoxal
  • gaseous ammonia is applied to the liquid layer of aqueous protein.
  • Such treatment changes the protein solution of the liquid-coated layer from the sol to the gel form.
  • this setting up of the liquid coating occurs very rapidly (such. as on the order of 1 second or less).
  • the time in which the setting up occurs depends on several factors as follows: i
  • composition of the Ziquid.-It is desirable that the liquid coating composition contain at least 2% of gelatin or other protein to obtain setting or gelling in accordance with my invention. It the coating is applied on an absorptive surface or the like, even more dilute protein solutions may be set or thickened by my method. If 10% or more of gelatin or protein is present in the liquid composition, maximum speed of setting may be obtained. However, I have found that a concentration of 38% of protein in the coating composition gives the most useful range within which to operate.
  • Percent of formaldehyde in the composition The percentage of formaldehyde used in the composition may be within the range of %,%-50% (based on the weight of the protein), although the most useful range has been found to be %-l0%. It may be stated as a general rule that, as the protein concentration in the coating composition increases, less formaldehyde is needed, whereas with coating compositions having a low protein concentration therein a higher percentage of formaldehyde is desirable. These proportions also are to be observed in the use of acrolein or glyoxal when those are employed instead of formaldehyde.
  • the surrounding gas may be at an elevated temperature, such as 150 F. or even more.
  • my method may be carried out at any reasonable temperature within the range of 45.160 F. in operating my process it is, of course, necessary that the ammonia gas be kept from the coating composition prior to its spreading upon the surface on which it is coated, as otherwise setting up of the liquid composition while in the hopper or other container in which it is found would occur.
  • the ammonia should be applied to the protein coating as soon as that coating has been applied to a surface, thereby avoiding ny movement in the liquid coating composition with reference to the surface to which it was applied.
  • One very useful method of applying the ammonia is to direct the ammonia gas so that it impinges direct- 1y on the coated layer. Any of the various known methods of contacting gases with surfaces can be used. As higher concentrations of NH3 and rapid application of NH3 to the coated layer increases the speed of setting thereof, it is desirable to direct the ammonia gas to the layer to obtain setting in the shortest times.
  • my invention is useful for setting layers of gelatin or other protein which have been applied either clear or in dyed form to a supporting surface, such as layers of a thickness of DOGS-.025 inch.
  • the protein compositions may be in the form of photosensitive silver halide emulsions or in the form of pigment layers such as used for the baryta coating of photographic paper.
  • my invention is particularly useful for the setting of photographic emulsions consisting of silver halide in a protein vehicle by coating out the composition as mentioned and then subjecting to fuming with ammonia gas, both at room temperature and at anytemperature which might be employed at this point. ihe photographic emulsion layer obtained is then dried without the necessity of using lowered temperatures.
  • My invention is applicable to emulsions generally in which the silver halid is in suspension in an aqueous solution of a protein at a pH such that'the protein will remain in solution at room temperature or slightly elevated.
  • a photographic emulsion it may have commonly added materials, such as sensitizers, anti-foggants and the like, therein to aid the photograph ic properties. This may include both washed and unwashed photographic emulsions.
  • gelatin or other protein coating solution in which my invention is useful is that in which the gelatin is applied as a clear solution to form an overcoating on a support. If desired, a dye may be dissolved therein to impart artificial coloration to the protein layer.
  • My in.- vention is also applicable to coatings in which the protein contains in suspension therein pigs ment particles, such as, for example, in the baryta coating of paper in which the protein is employed as the carrier for the pigment.
  • my invention is useful in the treatment of gelatinsilver halide emulsion layers where quick setting up and drying of the photosensitiv layer applied to a support is desirable.
  • the gelatin or other protein may be mixed with other polymeric materials with which they are compatible. It is desirable, however, that the protein constitute at least 20% of the polymeric material and at least 2 of the composition of the coating liquid.
  • Some polymers which are useful for mixing with proteins, if that is desired, are resins, such as styrene-butyl acrylate-methacrylamide, disclosed in Fowler application Serial No. 272,709, filed February 20, 1952.
  • polymers which may be employed are acrylonitrile-ethyl acrylate, known as Rhoplex resins, acrylonitrile-butadiene resins, styrene-butadiene resins, styrene-acrylonitrile resins, styrene-ethyl acrylate resins, styrene-butyl acrylate resins and polyvinyl acetate.
  • the polymeric material in the coating composition should consist of 20-100% of gelatin or other protein and -0% of one of the polymers as listed above.
  • One of the types of coatings to which my invention relates is that of a gelatin-silver halide emulsion.
  • My invention is applicable to photosensitive emulsions generally in which silver halide is in suspension in an aqueous solution of a protein Vehicle.
  • the emulsion may also have other commonly added materials, such as sensitizers, matting agents, antifoggants, spreading agents and the like.
  • These emulsions are prepared by first dispersing silver halide in a peptizing agent and forming th emulsion therefrom using gelatin or some other protein vehicle.

  • the emulsion is then coated out in the form of a thin layer onto a support therefor, such as paper or film base, which layer is then set and dried.
  • formaldehyde or the like is incorporated in the emulsion composition and, at the time of coating, the emulsion layer is subjected to the action of gaseous ammonia.
  • the chill setting method as referred to previously, is not even operable.
  • Another type of use which can be of my invention is in the baryta coating of paper.
  • a small amount of formaldehyde such as in the form of formalin, is added to the baryta coating composition (gelatin and BaSOr), and, immediately after applying to the paper, the paper is passed into a chamber containing ammonia therein sothat immediate setting cc ours.
  • the coating may then be driedby a current of warm dry air.
  • the advantage of this procedure is that a minimum of the coating composition penetrates into thepaper which is coated therewith.
