Description

PHOTGGRAPHIC EMULSIONS HAVING IN- CREASED SENSITIVITY TO X-RAY AND GAMIMA RAY RADIATION Fritz W. H. Mueller and Ernest T. Larson, Jr., Binghamton, N.Y., assignors to General Aniline & Film Corporation, New York, N.Y., a corporation of Delaware No Drawing. Filed Nov. 24, 1954, Ser. No. 471,106
19 Claims. (Cl. 96-108) This invention relates to the improvement of photographic materials, and more particularly to the production of silver halide photographic emulsions of increased sensitivity to X-rays.
Cadmium salts have been used in the manufacture of photographic emulsions for recording the effects of visible light. For example, ammonia-type and neutral boil-type celerated by the use of cadmium.
Cadmium salts were also used in gelatino silver halide emulsions to accelerate ripening and to increase the contrast for exposure to light. The activation produced by cadmium was greatest for chlorobromide emulsions containing from 25% to 30% bromide, but could no longer be observed when the bromide content Was lowered below or raised to 50%.
The prior art dealing with the use of cadmium salts in silver halide emulsions pertained exclusively to the improvement of photographic properties for exposures to light. No improvement in the sensitivity to X-rays and gamma rays was reported by the early investigators.
It is an object of this invention to increase the sensitivity of photographic emulsions to X-rays and gamma rays as used in the practice of X-ray diifraction, medical radiography, industrial radiography, detection of nuclear radiation, and similar applications.
Other objects will be apparent from the following description.
We have discovered that the addition of very small amounts of cadmium ion to the solutions used in precipitating a silver halide emulsion has the effect of increasing the X-ray and gamma ray sensitivity of the finished emulsion. The amounts of cadmium ion used range from about 0.001 to 0.2 mol percent relative to the amount of silver used. Expressed in terms ofparts per million, the amounts of cadmium ion used range from about 10 parts to about 2000 parts per million parts ofsilver ion. The concentration of cadmium based on the silver bromide content of the emulsion ranges from 0.007 to 1.4 milligrams of cadmium per gram of silver bromide. When used in the small concentrations specified above, the cadmium produces a marked decrease in the sensitivity to visible light, although this sensitivity loss depends somewhat on the details of the emulsion formulation and the intensity level of the visible light to which the ex- Patented Aug. 30, 1960 7 can be introduced in the presence of a colloidal carrier as a water soluble salt of cadmium such as cadmium chloride or cadmium bromide mixed with the alkali bromide solution to which is added the silver nitrate solution to produce the formation of crystals or grains which consist primarily of silver bromide. Except for the halide salts, a water soluble cadmium salt such as cadmium nitrate or acetate can be mixed with the silver nitrate solution which is then added to the alkali bromide solution during the emulsification step. Irrespective of the procedure wihch is used to introduce the cadmium ion, an increase in X-ray and gamma ray sensitivity is obtained, proving that the observed increase in sensitivity is a result of the addition of the cadmium ion and is not due to the particular anion used.
Without wishing to be bound by or limited to any particular theory of the mechanism involved in producing increased X-ray sensitivity, it is believed that the cadmium ion is built into the host silver halide lattice as an impurity occupying lattice sites throughout the crystal normally occupied by silver ion, resulting in a distortion of the normal lattice structure and .thereby altering the sensitivity to X rays and gamma rays.
The following examples serve to illustrate the invention, but it. is to be understood that the invention is not to be restricted thereto.
The two solutions were first heated separately to a temperature of 68 C. and then mixed by the addition of Solution 2 to Solution l at a slow rate over a period of 1 hour, with constant agitation. Thereafter, 60 grams of dry gelatin were added and the mixture was maintained at 68C. for 20 minutes, with agitation. The emulsion was then chilled, shredded, and washed until the bromide ion concentration was milligrams per kilogram of liquid emulsion. The emulsion was remelted and then after-ripened for 20 minutes at 60 C. Saponin was added as a spreading agent, formaldehyde was added as a hardener, and the emulsion coated onto a cellulose ester film base.
The speed of this emulsion, measured as th reciprocal of the exposure required to produce a density of 0.5 above base and fog density, relative to that of an emulsion made at the same time and in the same way except that the cadmium was omitted, was determined for a series of exposures to X-rays generated at 10 kilovolts, 65 kilovolts, 250 kilovolts and for exposure to the gamma rays of radium. The emulsion containing cadmium was found to be more than 50% faster than the emulsion containing no cadmium.
Development of the exposed X-raywas carried out 3 for 7 minutes at 20 C. in an X-ray developer having the following composition;
Water to make 50.0 mls.
The two solutions were first heated separately to a temperature of 50 C. and then mixed by adding Solution 2 to Solution 1 at a rate which allowed completion of addition within 1 minute. The emulsion obtained was digested for minutes at 50 C., poured into a parchment bag and dialysed at C. in order to remove the potassium nitrate. After dialysis, 100 mls. of water and a small amount of saponin were added and the emulsion coated onto a fdm base which was especially subbed for polyvinyl alcohol coatings. The X-ray and gamma ray speed of this very fine grain emulsion was about 50% higher than the speed of a type which had been prepared in an identical manner except that it did not contain any cadmium ions.
Example 111 Example H was repeated with the exception that the purification by dialysis was replaced by precipitation with ammonium sulfate, and that the precipitated particles were washed with water and remelted prior to coating.
Example IV An X-ray emulsion was made according to the following procedure.
Two solutions were prepared as follows:
Solution 1:
Water cc 150.0 Potassium bromide gms 60.0 Cadmium chloride gm 0.04 Gelatin gms 6.0 Solution 2:
Water cc 400 Silver nitrate gms 74 The two solutions were first heated and then mixed by adding Solution 2 to Solution 1 at a slow rate over a period of 1 hour, with constant agitation. Thereafter 60 grams of dry gelatin were added and the mixture maintained at 68 C. for 20 minutes, with agitation. The emulsion was then chilled, shredded, and washed until the bromide ion Concentration was 100 milligrams per kilogram of emulsion. The emulsion was remelted and after-ripened for 20 minutes at 60 C. A surfactant and a hardener were added and the emulsion was then coated onto a cellulose acetate support.
The speed of this emulsion, measured as the reciprocal of the exposure required to produce a density of 0.5 above base and fog density, relative to that of an emulsion made at the same time and in the same way except that the cadmium was omitted, was determined for a series of exposures to X-rays generated at 10 kilovolts, 65 kilovolts, 250 kilovolts, and for exposure to the gamma rays of radium. The emulsion containing cadmium was found to be about 50% faster than the emulsion containing no cadmium.
While the present invention has been described with reference to certain preferred procedures and uses, it is evident that the invention is not limited thereto, that variations, may be made in the procedure described herein and that equivalent materials may be substituted, without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. For instance, silver bromo-iodide emulsions can be used in place of the silver bromide emulsions illustrated in the examples and it is to be understood that the term silver bromide as used in the appended claims is intended to embrace silver bromide emulsions in which from to of the weight of the silver halide is silver bromide. In place of the gelatin and polyvinyl alcohol illustrated in the examples, other colloidal carrier materials can be used such as water dispersible organic esters of cellulose, polyamides, hydroxyethyl cellulose, modified polyvinyl alcohol or partially hydrolyzed polyvinyl acetate. Special sensitizing agents which are known to the art can be added to the emulsions to increase their inherent speed.
In place of saponin, synthetic surfactants or wetting agents such as isopropylnaphthalene sulfonic acid can be used which aid in the preparation of even coatings without bubble formation. Color formers fast to diffusion and capable of forming, upon development with a primary amino developer, azometmne and quinonimine dye images, can be added to the emulsion in which case dye images are obtained upon color development with such primary amino developer.
