Definitions

  • This invention relates to photography and particularly to improved photographic silver halide emulsions of the lith-type.
  • Photographic films used in the graphic arts for making half-tone or line images should be capable of producing extremely high contrast and good image sharpness. These factors contribute in the case of half-tone images to high dot quality, that is, to the production of half-tone dots of high density and sharpness.
  • the photographic elements of the lith-type that is, elements that have a fine grain high contrast silver halide emulsion containing at least 60 mole percent chloride, less than 40 mole percent bromide and less than about mole percent iodide, require the use of pure hydroquinone developer solutions having very low free sulfite ion concentration in the alkaline solution in order to produce the high contrast and high dot quality required for good quality half-tone reproduction.
  • Such developer solutions are unstable, having very short tray or tank life after exposure to air, so that the solutions must be mixed fresh just before they are to be used for processing and then discarded.
  • the films and processes available do not produce the desired latitude and have the desired ease in exposing and processing the film to produce the required quality. This has resulted from the contrast of the image reproduction in the photographic elements being overly sensitive to development time, and from a nonlinearity in the relationship between the film speed and development time, causing unequal increases in film speed from equal increases in development time.
  • a photographic light sensitive element comprising a support, at least one hydrophilic colloid layer containing a very fine grain photographic silver halide emulsion having at least 60 mole percent chloride, less than 40 mole percent bromide and less than about 5 mole percent iodide, and at least one hydrophilic colloid layer containing certain water-soluble block polymers of polyoxypropylene and polyoxyethylene such that the block polymer is contiguous with the silver halide.
  • the water-soluble block polymers used in photographic elements according to my invention include those block polymers in which the polyoxypropylene chain (or moiety) has an average molecular weight between 800 and 3,000 and in which the polyoxyethylene units consti- "ice tute from about 10 to about percent by weight of the polymer.
  • the image reproductions produced in my lith-type emulsion layers are of excellent quality.
  • the conventional alkaline, pure hydroquinone, low free-sulfite developer may be used to develop my exposed elements, it is also advantageous to use a developer having from 10 to about 30 grams of an alkali sulfite per liter of the developer solution.
  • Y represents an organic radical having a valence of x, said radical being the residue of an organic compound containing atoms selected from the class consisting of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur with x active hydrogen atoms, such as, the residue of polyhydroxy compounds, e.g., ethylene glycol, 1,2-propanediol, 1,5-pentanediol, 1,2,3-propanetriol, sucrose, etc., the residue of a polybasic acid, e.g., oxalic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, maleic acid, citric acid, etc., the residue of a polyamine, e.g., ethylenediamine, 1,3- diaminopropylene, etc., the residue of a polyamide, e.g., malonamide, succinamide, etc., the residue of a polythiol, e.g., 1,2 ethylenedithiol, 1,3 -.propylenedithiol
  • b represents an integer of from 14 to 52; a and c are each integers such that the sum of a-i-c has a total of from 4 to 48 and the polyoxyethylene groups constitute between 10 and 70 percent by weight of the block polymer.
  • the block polymers of Formula II and of Formula I where R represents the hydrogen atom are described in Lundsted U.S. Patent 2,674,619, issued April 6, 1954, and Lundsted U.S. Patent 3,022,335, issued February 20, 1962.
  • the block polymers of Formula I in which R is hydrogen are readily converted to compounds where R represents an organic residue by reaction with the appropriate reagent in a suitable inert organic solvent that is preferably anhydrous.
  • alkyl halides such as alkyl chlorides, alkyl bromides, etc., are used to advantage to replace the terminal hydrogen atom of the block polymer with an alkyl group.
  • Alkylp-toluenesulfonates are also used to advantage to place an alkyl group on the end of the block polymers.
  • the appropriate acid chloride or acid anhydride such as, acetyl chloride, propionyl chloride, stearoyl chloride, benzoyl chloride, acetic anhydride, etc., are used to advantage to prepare block polymers of Formula I in which R is an alkyl carbonyl or an aryl carbonyl group. These reactions are well known to those skilled in the'art. Many of the block polymers of Formulas I and II are available commercially.
  • My photographic elements coated with a lith-type emulsion containing my block polymers of polyoxypropylene and polyoxyethylene are valuable for use in graphic art reproduction.
  • My elements are particularly valuable when developed with a dihydroxybenzene developer with a high free sulfite ion concentration in an alkaline solution.
  • My elements provide the following advantages:
  • the quality of the silver images produced in lithtype emulsion layers is conveniently measured in terms of contrast (i.e., 'y) and dot quality.
  • Photographic image contrast is the slope of the straight line portion of a graph of optical density of the image vs. log of exposure.
  • Dot quality is a measure of the quality of the reproduction of a half-tone image. Lith-type photographic elements exposed to a half-tone image, and developed, produce areas commonly referred to as shadow dots and areas known as highlight areas. Intermediate between these two extremes are areas of varying size.
  • the dot quality used herein is a measure of the areas referred to as 50% dots (i.e., /2 clear and /2 developed density) and is expressed -in a progressive scale Where 9 is excellent and "1 is extremely poor. A 50% dot quality below "6 is generally not acceptable.

  • the operable range of concentrations is from .001 to 1.00 gram of block polymer per mole of silver, while the preferred range is from 0.010 to 0.200 gram per mole of silver.
  • the optimum concentration of a given block polymer used in my elements depends upon the results desired, the particular silver halide emulsion, the developer solution, etc., and is readily determined by methods well known in the art.
  • the determination of the optimum concentration is preferably made by employing the block polymer in the silver halide emulsion layer or in an adjacent hydrophilic colloid layer according to the element that is desired.
  • the fine grain silver halide emulsions used to advantage have silver halide crystals preferably containing at least 60 mole percent chloride, less than 40 mole percent bromide and less than about 5 mole percent iodide.
