Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A color photographic material suitable for an optical sound recording system having a photographic layer capable of forming silver images which remain without being bleached in the color photographic material in the bleach step after color development.
  • the layer contains a bleach inhibitor having at least two oxyethylene groups.

  • color photographic materials used for cine-projection or television there is generally used an optical recording system or a magnetic recording system.
  • the color photographic materials of the present invention are optical recording systems.
  • the reproduction of sound in color photographic materials has ordinarily been conducted by applying to the color photographic materials a processing which forms silver images or silver sulfide images in the sound track and utilizing the densities of the silver images or silver sulfide images in the infrared region for the reproduction of sound.
  • the infrared densities are usually about 1.0 to about L6.
  • the sound track in color photographic print films can be formed by the process shown in, for instance, the Journal of the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers;" Vol. 77, l 154 (1968).
  • the color image in image portions and the sound images or pattern in sound recording portions are simultaneously formed by color development in a color development bath.
  • the unexposed silver halide is removed and in the bleach bath the developed silver formed in the development step is rehalogenated.
  • a viscous sound developer is selectively applied to the sound track portions and the silver halide only at the sound track portions is converted into silver images.
  • the silver halide at the image portions is fixed and removed, and in the stabilization bath the dyes of the image portions are stabilized.
  • the densities of the silver images in infrared. regions of the sound track thus formed are utilized for the reproduction of sound.
  • the reason for forming such a sound track composed of silver or silver sulfide is that the spectral sensitivity characteristics of the photoelectric cells used. for the reproduction of sound provide a sensitivity maximum in the infrared region, while the colored dyes formed in color photographic materials in the color development step donot have sufficient density in such a long wave length region.

  • the sound track image recording layer of the photographic material is only to record the sound track image. Latent images of the picture record should not be formed in the layer.
