Definitions

  • ABSTRACT Photographic recording material with a light-sensitive layer comprising a substantially non-light-sensitive silver salt, a reducing agent, a toning agent and in admixture therewith a light-sensitive heavy metal compound and/or a polymethine sensitizing agent for the spectral sensitization of the non-light-sensitive silver compound, wherein the light-sensitive layer comprises a phthalazinone toning agent according to the follow- PLEEWE mug;
  • the invention relates to a photographic material for the production of photographic copies in a dry manner, the photographic material comprising toning agents for the formation of black silver images.
  • the invention also relates to a photographic heat-copying process, wherein the formation of the silver image is performed in the presence of toning agents that shift the image tone from yellow to black-brown and black.
  • non-light-sensitive silver salts as oxidizing agents, e.g. silver saccharide or silver salts of long chain fatty acids.
  • the amount of the reducing agent present in the light-sensitive material has to be restricted to a minimum to avoid any undesired darkening of the coating solution or of the layer, i.e., to avoid the reduction of the organic silver salts during the manufacture and storage of the material. Therefore, weak reducing agents of the type of the o-alkyl-substituted phenols as described, e.g. in the published German Patent Application No. 1,908,761 filed Feb. 18, 1969 by Minnesota Mining & manufacturing Co. are added.

  • the sensitizing agents are dissolved in organic solvents and added to the solutions ready for coating. They may also be added in solid form to the silver salt before the grinding or a short time before the application of the coating solution to the support.
  • the concentration of the sensitizing agent in the layer may vary within wide limitations. It depends on the desired effect and on the nature of the sensitizing agent used in combination with the silver salt. In general, concentrations of 0.1 to 2 g of sensitizing dye, preferably of 0.2 to 0.6 per mole of silver salt, appeared to be sufficientpln certain cases amounts of sensitizing agents beneath or beyond this range may be added.

  • Light-sensitive heavy metal salts suited for the first process and forming metal nuclei upon exposure, which metal nuclei are capable of initiating the imageforming redox reaction, are e.g. inorganic or organic salts of silver, mercury, or gold.
  • Heavy metals of group lb of the periodic table of the elements, more particularly silver salts and especially silver halides are preferred.
  • the light-sensitive heavy metal salt that is best for the redox system used can be found by making some simple tests.
  • the metal salt in the form of an aqueous suspension can be mixed with the components of the redox reaction: no change at all must occur in the dark. When this mixture is exposed to ultraviolet radiation, it should change colour rather quickly. If a particular heavy metal salt behaves in this way, it is suited for the redox system.
  • the light-sensitive heavy metal salt e.g. the silver halide should be used in such small amounts that the photolytically formed heavy metal nuclei can initiate the redox reaction.
  • concentration of the silver halide should, however, be so low that the metal nuclei formed do not colour the copying material or do so in a neglegible way only.
  • Some of the silver salts that are non-light-sensitive by nature and can be used according to the invention show a certain inherent sensitivity, however low it may be, when precipitated in the presence of a protective colloid such as proteins, e.g. gelatin, as is generally done for the preparation of conventional gelatin silver halide emulsions.
  • a protective colloid such as proteins, e.g. gelatin, as is generally done for the preparation of conventional gelatin silver halide emulsions.
  • the precipitation of the silver salts for the manufacture of the material according to the invention should thus be performed in such a way that the silver salts formed are non-light-sensitive.
  • the silver salts are non-light-sensitive when they'are formed by precipitation in the absence of a protective colloid.
  • the dried silver salts are then incorporated in the solutions or dispersions of the desired binding agent.
  • concentration of the silver salt in the binder solutions or dispersions may vary within wide limits depending on the desired silver content of the photographic layers. In general, amounts of 0.] to 0.01 mole of silver salt per kg of coating solution, will do. Preferably amounts of 0.02 to 0.04 mole of silver salt are used per kg of solution or dispersion. The same applies to the silver content of the finished photographic layer.
  • the concentration therof also varies within wide limits depending on the desired effect and the intended use.
  • the coating ratio will be of 0.1 to l g of silver in the form of the silver salt per sq.m., preferably of 0.3 to 0.6 g per sq.m. It is obvious that also mixtures of different non-light-sensitive silver compounds can be used in the material used according to the invention.
  • non-lightsensitive heavy metal compounds can be added to the material, preferably to the layer containing the nonlight-sensitive silver salt.
  • a lowering of the fog an increase of the density, or a shift of the image tone to desired colour tones, e.g. to neutral black, can be attained.
  • Suitable heavy metal compounds are, e.g. salts or compounds of mercury, cadmium, lead, uranium, gold, platinum, palladium, or rhodium.
  • the heavy metal compounds can be added already during the precipitation of the silver salt.
  • solutions of the heavy metal salts and of the silver salts are added to the precipitation component in question according to the double jet method and precipitated at the same time.
  • these heavy metal salts can, however, be added also in solid or dissolved form to the coating solutions for the photographic layer, which already contain the silver salt.
  • the heavy metal salts can also be mixed with the dried silver salts by grinding or they can be added prior to the coating of the coating solution for the photographic layer. Obviously, combinations of different heavy metal salts can be used likewise. The added amount of the heavy metal salts or heavy metal compounds may vary within wide limits.
  • concentration depends upon the nature of the heavy metal salt and the silver salt'as well as on the desired effect. The optimum amount can be established easily by the average technician skilled in the art by making some tests. In the case of simultaneous precipitation, the heavy metal salts show a higher activity. In order to obtain the desired effect concentrations of 0.001 to 10 mole percent or preferably of 0.01 to 5 mole percent will do mostly.
  • concentrations of 0.001 to 0.2, preferably of 0.005 to 0.07 mole of heavy metal salt, e.g. mercury(Il)-acetate per mole of silver salt suffice.
  • These layers may comprise white pigments such as zinc oxide, silica, or titanium dioxide as filling agents for the improvement of the whiteness of the image background and for influencing the stickiness of the layers.
