Definitions

  • This invention relates to photographic products and processes and more particularly to transfer processes which involve the development of a latent image in a silver halide emulsion and the transfer of components rom said emulsion to another layer to effect the formation of a print of said latent image in said other layer, and to products useful in the performance of said transfer processes.
  • the processing composition either contains the developing agent prior to its distribution or dissolves such an agent after it is distributed, and, in either event, the processing composition renders the developing agent effective for developing the silver halide emulsion.
  • it When using most developing agents, it must be relatively highly alkaline to perform this function. A highly alkaline environment is thus proucked in the print-receiving layer, and this environment, if permitted to exist, sometimes introduces several sources of instability which adversely affect the pictorial quality of the print with the passage of time.
  • a principal source of this instability is the oxidation of the unexhausted residue developer which may stain the highlights of the print-receiving layer. The occurrence of this instability is reduced to negligible proportions if the alkalinity of the print-receiving layer can be effectively lowered within a relatively short time after the formation of the transfer print therein.
  • lt is accordingly one object of the present invention to provide an improved process for forming prints, by transfer, wherein a developing composition of relatively high alkalinity may be used during the print formation but which gives afinished transfer print whose ultimate alkalinity is low enough to substantially eliminate .the possibility of the aforementioned print instability.
  • This object is achieved by providing, preferably on or adjacent to the surfaces of the elements permeated by the processing liquid, compounds which will react with the by droxyl ions of an alkaline solution to produce a volatile reaction product which itself is alkaline.
  • the processing composition remains alkaline despite the formation of the said reaction product.
  • the volatile reaction product becomes free to evaporate from the positive print, thereby effectively reducing the alkalinity of the positive'print. It is more convenient to have the alkali element 10 and a present initially in the composition in a nonvolatile condition and to avoid any volatilization of the alkaline component until after the final print is obtained and both these desirable objectives are achieved by the aforementioned arrangement.
  • One class of stabilizing agents comprehended by the present invention are the salts of the volatile amines and particularly of amines which are aliphatic and whose one normal solution has a pH in excess of 10.
  • the salts of the more volatile amines i. e., amines having a boiling point of the order of C. or less, are of course preferred, and examples of such amines whose salts are satisfactory are diethylamine, triethylamine, diisopropylamine, allylamine and ethylamine.
  • hydrochlorides, sulfates, nitrates, oxalates, citrates and tartrates of these amines may be satisfactorily employed, and preferred species of salts are diethylamine hydrochloride, diethylamine sulfate, and diethylamine nitrate.
  • the invention accordingly comprises the product possessing the features, properties and the relation of components, and the process involving the several steps and the relation and order of one or more of such steps with respect to each of the others, which are exemplified in the following detailed disclosure, and the scope of the application of which will be indicated in the claims.

  • the liquid composition develops the latent image in the emulsion and forms a soluble silver complex with undeveloped silver halide.
  • This soluble silver complea is at least in part transported in the direction of print-receiving element 12 and the silver thereof is largely precipitated in the silver precipitating layer 16 to form a positive image in silver.
  • novel stabilizing agents comprehended by the present invention are carried by one or both of elements 10 and 12, being dispersed in the portions of said elements which are permeated by the liquid of the processing composition.
  • the support 12a of element 12 is permeable to the processing composition and is not separated from the silver precipitating layer 16 by an impermeable subcoat, it is preferable to have the stabilizing salts dispersed throughout the thickness of said support 12a.
  • the stabilizing salts may be carried by a subcoat provided beneath silver precipitating layer 16.
  • the stabilizing agent may also be dispersed throughout the emulsion layer 10b or carried in a permeable subcoat located between said emulsion layer and its support.
  • the stabilizing agent When provided in the photosensitive element either in layer 10b or in an adjacent layer, consideration should be given to the possible effect of the stabilizing agent upon the sensitivity of the emulsion.

  • the seal provided at the longitudinal portions 26 is preferably weaker than the end seals, providing a liquid-discharging lip which substantially parallels the long dimension of the container.
  • Photosensitive element maybe any of the commer cially available photosensitive silver halide films, the term films being understood to include paper-backed emulsions.
  • the products of the present invention are particularly useful in improving the results obtained when the transfer process is carried out with one of the highspeed photosensitive silver halide emulsions such as the emulsion of the relatively high-speed orthochromatic films, e. g., Eastman Kodak Verichrome film, having an A S A speed rating of 0200 and an A S A exposure index rating in the daylight of 50, and the extremely high-speed panchromatic emulsions, e. g., Eastman Kodak Super XX Pan having an A S A speed rating of 0400 and an A S A exposure index rating in the daylight of 100, and Ansco Triple S Pan.

  • Element 12 may be formed by applying to a suitable support 12a, for example of baryta paper, a coating of a suspension or sol of the silica containing the silver precipitating agent. This sol is permitted to dry and provides layer 16.
  • the suspension of silica may be obtained by dispersing the silica, for example, in water, and then adding the silver precipitating agent either directly or by introducing into the sol salts whose reaction product is the precipitating agent.
  • the sol may also be applied to the sheet without the silver precipitating agent, and the sheet with the layer of silica thereon may then be dipped in a solution or mixture of the silver precipitating agent to deposit the latter in said layer.
  • preferred stabilizing salts are the aliphatic salts of volatile amines.
  • the alkaline reaction productof the reaction between the said stabilizing salts and the hydroxyl groups in the processing composition give a slightly lower alkalinity than the alkalinity obtained from the material which introduces said hydroxyl groups into the alkaline solution.
  • the aliphatic amines while sufficiently alkaline to maintain operative a developer composition, possess a slightly lower alkalinity than the alkalinity, for example, of the hydroxides of the alkali metals and the alkali earths.

  • Example 1 A processing composition is prepared by mixing together the following ingredients:
  • a print-receiving element 12 baryta-coated surface of a mixture comprising:
  • Silica aerogel "grams-.. 800 60% water solution of gum arabic ..cc 135 /2 solution of sodium sulfide cc 3,200 Cadmium acetate grams 19 Lead acetate do 25 Water cc 13,400
  • the processing composition is spread in a layer of approximately .O02-.003 inch in thickness between the treated baryta surface of element 12 and the photosensitive silver halide emulsion 10b of photosensitive element 10.
  • Emulsion 10b is a relatively high speed orthochromatic emulsion like the emulsion of Eastman Kodak Verichrome film and has been exposed to predetermined subject matter so that it contains a latent image of this subject matter, and support for said emulsion is a white paper.
  • the lamination formed by the spreading of the processing agent in a layer 14 between elements 10 and 12 is kept intact for approximately one-half to one and one-half minutes, preferably one minute, and at the end of this time, element 12 is stripped from element 10.
  • Element 12 when so stripped, carries a positive print in silver of the subject matter of the latent image of. emulsion 10b. in this form of the process, the film of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose contained in the layer 14 of the processing composition adheres to the surface of element 12 and solidifies to form a film thereon.
  • the hydroxyl ions of the processing composition are converted to the volatile alkaline amine during the processing, and so much of this amine as remains in the print-receiving stratum begins to evaporate shortly after the stripping of said print-receiving element from the photosensitive element so that there is soon produced a sufficient diminution in the alkalinity of the print-receiving stratum to greatly minimize the creation of stains and other sources of instability.
  • the film-forming material in the processing agent which imparts the desired viscosity to the latter may be any of the high molecular weight polymers which are stable to alkalies and which are soluble in aqueous alkaline solutions.
  • the film-forming material in the processing agent which imparts the desired viscosity to the latter may be any of the high molecular weight polymers which are stable to alkalies and which are soluble in aqueous alkaline solutions.
  • plastics such other plastics as hydroxyethyl cellulose, carboxy methyl-hydroxyethyl cellulose, polyvinyl alcohol and the sodium salts of polymethacrylic acid and polyacrylic acid may be used. It is desirable that the plastic be contained in the agent in sufiicient quantities to impart to the composition a viscosity in excess of 1000 centipoises at a temperature of approximately 24 C. Preferably the viscosities of the processing agent are of the order of 1,000 to 200.000 centipoises at a temperature of approximately 24 C.
  • Other developing agents may be used, for example one of the following: paminophenol hydrochloride; bromohydroquinone; chlorohydroquinone; diaminophenol hydrochloride; toluhydroquinone; monomethyl-p-aminophenol sulfate; a mixture consisting by weight of one-half hydroquinone and one-half p-hydrorzyphenylaminoacetic acid; and a mixture consisting by weight of one-fourth hydroquinone and three-fourths p-hydroxyphenylaminoacetic acid.
  • Such other complexforming substances as sodium thiocyanate, ammonium thiocyanate and ammonia may be employed.
  • Support 12a of element 12 may consist of gelatine, cellophane, polyvinyl alcohol, sodium alginate, and cellulose ethers such as methyl cellulose and their derivatives such as hydroxyethyl cellulose.
  • stabilizing salts such for example as diethylamine hydrochloride or methylamine hydrochloride, may be used in essentially the same quantity as the diethylamine sulfate of this example.
  • Example 2 The residual film of carboxymethyl cellulose may be stripped with the photosensitive element instead of with the print-receiving element by providing a stripping layer on the surface of the print-receiving element. This is accomplished by roll-coating on the processedpurposeceiving element of Fig. 1 a 5% aqueous solution of polyvinyl alcohol in a layer whose thickness is of the order of .001 inch. An equivalent amount of hydroxyethyl cellulose or polymethacrylic acid may be substituted for the polyvinyl alcohol of this example.
  • the silver precipitating agents which aid in the reduction and precipitation of the metallic silver of the positive print may be contained in the developer composition.
  • One example of a composition which can be usefully employed in this manner to thereby avoid the need for a special silver precipitating layer upon the print-receiving element is the following:
  • This composition is spread, as in Example 1, between a photosensitive emulsion of the Vcrichrome type and the baryta-coated surface of a plain baryta sheet. At he end of approximately a minute, the baryta sheet is stripped from the emulsion and carries with it the solid residue of the spread composition. This solid residue provides the print-receiving stratum. The silver precipitate which produces the positive is formed largely in this stratum and gives a positive print of good quality, high resolving power and excellent stability.
  • an emulsion so constituted is the following:
  • Example 4 A photosensitive silver halide element comprising a paper base and a Verichrome type emulsion is dipped into a 5% aqueous solution of diethylamine sulfate for five minutes. This photosensitive element is thereafter used in conjunction with a print-receiving element which is formed in the same manner as the print-receiving element of Example 1 except that the last dipping operation involving diethylarnine sulfate is omitted. These two sheets are processed, as described in Example 1, with the processing composition of that example to give a transfer print of good quality and stability.
