Definitions
- This invention relates to novel photographic processes and more particularly to novel processes for spectrally sensitizing photographic silver halide emulsions. It also relates to novel photographic materials and processes.
- the conventional method of sensitizing light sensitive silver halide consists of dissolving the sensitizing dye in an appropriate organic solvent, such as methyl alcohol, ethyl alcohol, acetone, etc., and adding the resulting solution to a liquid photographic silver halide emulsion. While this general method has provided a commercially feasible means for incorporating sensitizing dyes into silver halide emulsions, it still requires considerable care and extra manipulative steps in adjusting the volume of solvent to quantities that are compatible with the particular emulsion and still produce the desired results. Also, it is well known that excessive solvent engenders disadvantageous diffusion or wandering of the sensitizing dyes in the emulsions.
- an object of this invention to provide a new method for spectrally sensitizing light sensitive silver halide.
- Another object of this invention is to provide novel dispersions of spectral sensitizing dye.
- a process for spectrally sensitizing photographic silver halide which comprises: dispersing a substantially water-insoluble photographic spectral sensitizing dye into a water-soluble organic liquid without dissolving the dye; and, incorporating the dispersion into a liquid photographic silver halide emulsion.
- novel dye dispersions comprise undissolved particles of a photographic spectral sensitizing dye in a water-soluble organic liquid.
- compositions which comprise a hydrophilic colloid containing undissolved particles of photographic spectral sensitizing dye in a water-soluble organic liquid in which said dye is substantially insoluble.
- Such composition can be either liquid or solid; either form is useful for spectrally sensitizing liquid photographic silver halide emulsions.
- the dye dispersions of the invention are especially useful in coating processes which require low amounts of organic solvent.
- the dye dispersions are stable and can be conveniently stored or transported.
- compositions of dye in organic liquid can be prepared in any convenient manner. Ball milling the dye and organic liquid gives highly satisfactory results. Ad-
- the liquid contains dye particles which have an average diameter of up to about 1.0 micron.
- Organic liquids which can be used in the practice of this invention are water-soluble materials, and are liquids below about 30 C.
- Organic liquids can be used which are not solvents for the photographic sensitizing dye that is being used.
- Such organic liquids are oily materials. They should not have any adverse effects on the photographic emulsion in which they are incorporated.
- organic liquids which are solvents for the dye.
- Such organic liquids e.g., methanol, ethanol or isopropanol are used at sufficiently low levels, compared to the quantity of dye, that only very small amounts of dye are dissolved. Both types of liquids function to separate, or prevent agglomeration of the dye particles. Such separation is essential to eflective spectral sensitization.
- Typical organic liquids that are not dye solvents which can be used in the invention are represented by the following formula:
- R represents a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl group containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms, e.g., methyl, ethyl, butyl, etc.; R represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group; R represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group containing from 1 to 3 carbon atoms, e.g., methyl, ethyl, propyl or isopropyl, a hydroxymethyl group or an acetoxymethyl group; and R represents a divalent alkylene group containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, e.g., -CH a)s 2)2, 2)3 0T and wherein the sum of the carbon atoms in said R R and R is a positive integer of from 1 to 4.
- Typical useful liquids embraced by Formula I above include glycerol, monoacetin, ethylene glycol, methylglycol, (monomethyl ether of ethylene glycol), ethyl glycol ether, propyl glycol ether, butyl glycol ether, 1,3-propylene glycol, 1,3-butylene glycol, 1,4-butylene glycol, 2,3-butylene glycol, isobutylene glycol (Z-methyl-1,2-propanediol), 2-methyl-2, 3-butanediol, 3-methyl-l,3-butanediol, 1,2-pentanediol, l, 4-pentanediol, 2,3-pentanediol, 1,5-pentanediol, etc.
- Glycerol and methylglycol are the preferred solvents herein.
- organic liquids which are solvents for spectral sensitizing dyes. Such liquids are used in sufiiciently small amounts, relative to the quantity of spectral sensitizing dye, that no substantial amounts of dye are dissolved. Preferably, such liquids have a dissolving power for the dyes of less than 10 grams of dye per liter of solvent at 20 C.
- Useful organic liquids of this class include alcohols having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, such as methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, iso-propanol, n-butanol, iso-butanol or tert butanol; acetone; and, dimethylformamide. Such solvents provide less tacky dye dispersions than similar dispersions made with relatively high boiling organic liquids.
- a typical useful solvent mixture of this type is a mixture of methanol (which is a solvent for most sensitizing dyes) together with glycerol (which is a non-solvent for most sensitizing dyes).
- a typical useful solvent mixture of this type is a mixture of methanol (which is a solvent for most sensitizing dyes) together with glycerol (which is a non-solvent for most sensitizing dyes).
- an organic liquid mixture comprising about to 95 parts by weight solvent (e.g., methanol) and 20 to 5 parts by weight of a non-solvent liquid (e.g., glycerol) and preferably about parts by Weight solvent and 10 parts by weight non-solvent.
- the spectral sensitizing dye is dispersed in the organic liquid without dissolving the dye.
- the term without dissolving the dye means that no substantial amount of dye is dissolved. Preferably, less than about by weight of the total dye mixed with the liquid is dissolved. Essentially no dye is dissolved when the dye is insoluble in the organic liquid.
- the solvent is used in such small concentrations relative to the total amount of dye that no substantial amount of dye is dissolved.
- Typical solutions of sensitizing dye in organic solvent e.g., methanol, contain about 1 to 3 grams dye per liter of solvent. In accordance with this invention, preferably about 5 to 20 cc. of solvent are used per gram of dye.
- This invention can be practiced with any of the photographic spectral sensitizing dyes.
- the invention is especially useful with the dyes that are substantially insoluble in aqueous solutions, e.g., dyes which have a solubility in water (at 20 C.) of less than about 1%.
- Typical dyes which can be used in the practice of this invention are described in the following patents, the disclosure of which are incorporated herein by reference.
- I, II, III and V include not only the specified iodide and bromide salts, but also the chloride, sulfamate, thiocyanate, perchlorate, ptoluenesulfonate, methyl sulfate, etc. salts. Also, Dye N0. XI includes any of the alkali metal salts such as lithium, potassium, etc.
- the weight proportions of the water-soluble liquid (which is a non-solvent for the dyes) to dye can vary over a wide range, such as from about :5 to 100 150, but preferably from about 100:10 to 100240, respectively.
- Liquids which are dye solvents are advantageously used in weight proportions of about 5 to 20 parts solvent per each part by weight of dye.
- dispersions of the invention containing a binder such as gelatin can vary widely in the proportions of dye to gelatin, but the best results for sensitizing purposes are obtained with compositions wherein the dye varies from 20 to 40%, based on the total weight of dye plus binder.
- the dispersions of the dyes can also contain two or more dyes in each dispersion or dispersions containing a single dye can also be used in combinations of two or more such dispersions.
- the concentration of dye incorporated into the emulsions by the method of the invention for optimum sensitivity varies depending on the dye and emulsion about from 0.20 to 4.0 grams of dye per mole of silver halide in the emulsion.
- the dye dispersions of the invention can be readily incorporated into the emulsions by any suitable method such as mixing, mechanical blending, etc.
- compositions of the invention consisting essentially of organic liquid and dye can be added directly to liquid photographic silver halide emulsions to obtain good spectral sensitization.
- the composition of the invention can be dispersed in a hydrophilic colloid.
- the dispersion of dye-organic liquid in hydrophilic colloid can be used in liquid or solid form to sensitize liquid silver halide emulsions.
- the hydrophilic colloid used with the dye-organic liquid can be any colloid which is compatible with the photographic emulsions, such as any of the hydrophilic colloids referred to below. Gelatin is especially useful.
- the colloid is preferably free from silver halide, or, the mixture comprises a substantial amount of dye which is unadsorbed on any silver halide present in the colloid.
- the light sensitive silver halide can be dispersed in any hydrophilic colloid (binder) that is satisfactory for dispersing silver halides, for example, gelatin, albumin, agar-agar, gum arabic, alginic acid, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, cellulose ethers, partially hydrolyzed cellulose acetate, and the like.
- the hydrophilic colloid can also contain dispersed polymerized vinyl compounds, such as those disclosed in U.S. Pats.

- silver bromoiodide emulsions While the examples herein are illustrated with silver bromoiodide emulsions, it will be apparent that other silver halide emulsions such as silver chloride, silver bromide, silver chlorobromide, silver chlorobromoiodide, etc. can also be efliciently sensitized in like manner with the novel dye dispersions of the invention.
- the emulsions prepared in accordance with the invention may be coated on any suitable photographic support such as cellulose acetate, cellulose acetate butyrate, polyesters such as poly(ethylene terephthalate), polyethylene,
- the photographic emulsions prepared in accordance with the novel method of this invention may contain such addenda as chemical sensitizers, e.g., sulfur sensitizers (e.g., allyl thiocarbamate, thiourea, allylisothiocyanate, cystine, etc.), various gold compounds (e.g., potassium chloroaurate, auric trichloride, etc. (see Baldsiefen, U.S. Pat.

- the emulsion layers can also contain additional additives, particularly those known to be beneficial in photographic emulsions, including, for example, lubricating materials, stabilizers, speed increasing materials, absorbing dyes, plasticizers, and the like. These photographic emulsions can also contain in some cases additional spectral sensitizing dyes. Furthermore, these emulsions can contain color forming couplers or can be developed in solutions containing couplers or other color generating materials.

- EXAMPLE 1 1.350 g. of Dye No. I are milled for 6 hours in a ballmill with 6 cc. of methylglycol to give a dye dispersion wherein the dye particles have an average diameter less than about 1 micron. To this dispersion 18 g. of a gelatin solution are then added. The mixture is homogenized in a ball-mill for 15 minutes. The mixture is then air dried, formed into flakes so as to be readily bottled and stored at room temperature in a brown glass bottle. A suitable sample of the mixture is used to determine the dye content of the mixture. In the present example, the dye concentration is 31.5% by weight.
- Each of these two emulsions is kept at 40 C. for 20 minutes and then each is coated onto a separate cellulose acetate film support.
- the coated samples are sensitometrically tested by successive exposures of each sample to white light and through Wratten Filters No. 25 which transmits light at wavelengths longer than about 590 nm., No. 47 which transmits light in the region of about from 350 to 530 nm., and No. 58 which transmits light in the region of about from 470 to 615 nm., followed by development for about 6 minutes at room temperature in Kodak D-19 developer which has the following composition:
- EXAMPLE 13 The photographic tests carried out in this example are similar to those described in above Example 12, except that the preparation of the milled dyes dispersed in gelatin were made 3 months before.

- EXAMPLE 15 A mixture of Dye Nos. I, II an III, in the proportions given in above Example 12, is milled with 10 cc. of methyl glycol until the dye particles have an average diameter less than about 1 micron. The resulting dye paste is dispersed in 12 g. of a 15% aqueous gelatin solution, dried and then used to sensitize a photographic silver halide emulsion, as described in Example 12. The sensitivity of this emulsion is substantially the same as that of the emulsion prepared in Example 12 by method (a), except that the speed loss in white light as compared to the control is 0.08 log E.
- EXAMPLE 16 This example is identical with that of Example 15, except that the mixture of dyes is milled with 12 cc. of glycerol and taken up with 20 g. of a 10% aqueous gelatin solution.
- the sensitometric results of this example are identical with those of above Example 15.

- the emulsion sensitized with the solid mixture shows a speed loss of 0.10 log E as compared to the control (method a), in white light.
- EXAMPLE 18 This example and results thereof are identical with those of Example 17, except that the dye mixture is milled with 15 cc. of glycerin.
- EXAMPLE 19 500 mg. of Dye II are milled for 24 hours in a ballmill in the presence of cc. of methanol. Less than 5% by Weight of the total amount of dye is dissolved in methanol. 50 cc. of a aqueous gelatin solution are then added and the mixture is effected in the same ballmill at 40 C. for 2 hours.
- This mixture is coated on unsubbed poly(ethylene terephthalate) support, in the form of a film having a thickness of 30,11. to 40 After drying, the film which adheres to the support due to the effect of electrostatic charges is readily stripped from the base. It is broken into flakes by being passed through a grate under the action of compressed air. It is then readily weighed, titrated and stored.
- the mixture which contains about 8% by weight of dye, is used to spectrally sensitize an emulsion as described in Example 12.
- the spectral sensitometric results obtained, as in Example 12, are identical with those obtained by conventional spectral sensitization methods (i.e., when the dye is dissolved in an aqueous solution of methanol and added to the emulsion).
- EXAMPLE 20 The procedure of Example 19 is repeated except that the 5 cc. of methanol are replaced with 5 cc. of a 90:10 methanol-glycerin mixture. Identical sensitometric results are obtained.
