Definitions
- This invention relates to an imaging element, and in particular to a silver halide photographic element with improved scratch and abrasion resistance.
- an absorbing dye in particular, an ultraviolet ray absorbing dye
- the dyed light-insensitive layer is used, for example, to control the spectral composition of light incident upon a photographic emulsion layer, to act as an antihalation layer between the support and the photographic emulsion layer, or on the side of the support opposite to the photographic emulsion layer to prevent halation caused by light scattering during and after the passage of light through the photographic emulsion layer, or to absorb or to remove ultraviolet light produced by static discharge generated by friction of separation, which occurs when the surfaces of the photographic element come into contact during production or treatment processes.
- static electricity by charging reaches a certain limiting value
- atmospheric discharge occurs at a particular moment and a discharge spark fires at the same time.
- static marks appear after development.
- the weakening of light-insensitive layers by an absorbing dye dispersion has been a serious problem in, for example, color light sensitive materials, where a light-insensitive layer containing an ultraviolet dye dispersion is often coated as a protective layer on the top of the emulsion layer to remove the ultraviolet light generated by static discharge and for correct color reproduction. Since it is desired to record only visible light, the influence of the ultraviolet light is very apparent. For example, when photographing objects which have a comparatively large quantity of spectral energy in the ultraviolet region, such as a distant view, a snow scene, or an asphalted road, etc. the resulting color images are rich in blue color.
- a foremost objective of the present invention is to provide a silver halide photographic material which exhibits excellent resistance to such physical scratches and abrasions.
- a photographic element comprises a support, at least one light-sensitive layer, and a light-insensitive protective layer.
- the light-insensitive protective layer includes at least two layers, with the layer closer to the support (UV layer) containing at least one ultraviolet ray absorbing dye, a high boiling organic solvent, and a hydrophilic binder, and with the layer farthest from the support (outermost protective layer) containing a processing surviving matting agent and a modified gelatin where at least one carboxylic acid moiety of gelatin is modified into a monoamide of a polyamine whereby at least one additional amine group is introduced.
- the photographic element of the present invention has a light-insensitive hydrophilic protective layer which includes at least two layers.
- the layer closer to the support contains at least one ultraviolet absorbing dye, a high boiling organic solvent, and a hydrophilic binder.
- the layer farthest from the support contains at least one matting agent and a modified gelatin.
- the content of the hydrophilic binder in the UV layer is defined as the ratio of coating weight of the hydrophilic binder to the sum of the coating weights of the ultraviolet absorbing dyes, high boiling organic solvents, the hydrophilic binder, and other addenda, and is preferably in the range of from 30 to 90%, and more preferably from 40 to 80%.
- the matte particle in the outermost layer has a mean particle size of from 0.5 to 10 ⁇ m, preferably from 1 to 5 ⁇ m, and most preferably from 1 to 3 ⁇ m, and a coating weight of from 0.01 g/m 2 to 0.3 g/m 2 , preferably from 0.02 g/m 2 to 0.2 g/m 2 , and most preferably from 0.03 to 0.15 g/m 2 .
- the thickness of the UV layer of the present invention is usually 0.2 to 3 ⁇ m, and preferably from 0.5 to 2 ⁇ m.
