Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a direct positive silver halide light-sensitive photographic material, and more particularly to a light-sensitive photographic material having an internal latent image-type silver halide emulsion layer which, after being imagewise exposed, is subjected to fogging treatment (such as an overall exposure or surface development treatment in the presence of a fogging agent), whereby a direct positive image can be obtained.
  • fogging treatment such as an overall exposure or surface development treatment in the presence of a fogging agent
  • Those conventionally known direct positive image-obtaining methods are broadly divided into two types.
  • One type uses a silver halide emulsion provided with fogging nuclei.
  • the emulsion is imagewise exposed to destroy the fogging nuclei or latent image in the exposed area by utilizing the solarization or Herschel effect. It is then developed, thereby giving a positive image.
  • the other type uses an unprefogged internal latent image-type silver halide emulsion which, after being imagewise exposed, is subjected to fogging treatment (developing nuclei forming treatment) and then to surface development or which, after being imagewise exposed, is subjected to surface development while being subjected to fogging treatment (developing nuclei forming treatment), thereby giving a positive image.
  • the above-mentioned fogging treatment may be carried out by an overall exposure, by using a chemical fogging agent, by using a high-energy developer solution, or by thermal treatment.
  • an oxidized p-phenylenediamine color developing agent is reacted with dye image-forming couplers to form a color image.
  • a color reproduction according to the subtractive color process is applied wherein a dye image is formed which is composed of cyan, magenta and yellow dyes corresponding to red, green and blue colors, respectively.
  • a direct positive silver halide color photographic material a color image may be formed in similar manner. However, where a direct positive emulsion is used, since its development is performed along with its fogging treatment, the treatment generally tends to lower its sensitivity as well as increase its minimum density.
  • Japanese Patent Examined Publication No. 12709/1970 discloses a method of incorporating a heterocyclic thione compound into the emulsion
  • U.S. Patent No. 2,497,917 discloses a method of using an N-heterocyclic compound such as 5-methyl-benzoyl to correct this imbalance
  • Japanese Patent Examined Publication No. 9939/1983 discloses a method of using, for example, a specific magenta coupler and a mercapto compound. None of these methods, however, are effective to prevent the highlight portion from turning pinkish.
  • an object of the present invention to provide a direct positive silver halide light-sensitive photographic material comprising an internal latent image-type silver halide emulsion whose maximum density is sufficiently large and whose minimum density is sufficiently small. It is also an object of this invention to provide such photographic material wherein the foot portion of the density/exposure curve exhibits high contrast, and the highlight portion shows little or no tendency toward magenta color.
  • the material even if fixing or bleach-fixing solution is mixed by mistake into the color developer solution, the material will show no substantial soft gradation or increase in minimum density, and will not be affected by fogging treatment, thereby providing excellent reliability in the processing thereof.
  • a direct positive silver halide light-sensitive photographic material comprising a support and a silver halide emulsion layer containing direct positive image-forming-type silver halide grains adapted to form an internal latent image upon imagewise exposure and without prefogging on the surface thereof, and a compound represented by Formula [1], wherein Z represents a group of non-metallic atoms necessary to complete a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic ring which may have a substituent; X represents a hydrogen atom or a substituent capable of being split off upon reaction with an oxidation product of a color developing agent; and R represents a hydrogen atom or a substituent.
