Definitions
- Photographic emulsions and elements containing these silver halide grains are ecologically desirable and are particularly useful in providing unexpected and improved sensitometrie properties, particularly upon storage.
- This invention relates to photographic materials, their preparation and use.
- this invention relates to an improved process for preparing silver halide emulsions by precipitating silver halide grains in the presence of a rhodium salt and stabilizing the emulsions with manganous salts alone or a combination of manganous salts with cadmium bromide.
- silver halide emulsions and photographic elements containing these emulsions which are prepared and stabilized according to a process which, in comparison to similar prior art processing offers an ecological advantage.
- the improved photographic compositions described herein although they contain reduced levels of cadmium or none at all, unexpectedly exhibit significant emulsion stability and even show a slight speed increase.
- This reduction or elimination of the cadmium pollutant has been achieved by substituting, in whole or in part, relatively harmless water soluble manganous salts for cadmium salts in photographic silver halide emulsions containing silver halide grains precipitated in the presence of rhodiurn salts.
- photographic silver halide emulsions and elements which provide improved and unexpected sensitometric results with the elimination or substantial reduction of harmful environmental pollutants.
- the desirable photographic results of stabilization against speed loss, particularly on storage are achieved by total or partial replacement by the relatively harmless trace metal manganous salts by cadmium salts in photographic materials containing silver halide grains which are precipitated in the presence of rhodium salts.
- novel and improved high speed silver halide materials containing at least some manganous salts as a stabilizer alone or in combination with varying amounts of cadmium bromide.
- These materials include silver halide emulsions prepared by precipitating silver halide grains in the presence of a rhodium salt.
- this invention relates to a process for preparing a photosensitive silver halide emulsion which process comprises precipitating the silver halide grains of said emulsion in the presence of a rhodium salt and adding to said emulsion, a stabilizing concentration of (l) a water soluble manganous salt or (2) a combination of said salt with cadmium bromide.
- a particularly useful concentration of manganous salts is about 3 grams to about 50 grams per mloe of silver where only the water soluble manganese salts are employed for stabilization.
- cadmium bromide i.e. as a partial replacement therefor
- manganous salts are present in a range of from about weight percent to about 90 weight percent of the combination of these speed stabilizing agents.
- cadmium can be present in a concentration of from about 5 to about grams per mole of silver and manganous salts are present at about 5 to about 50 grams per mole of silver.
- stabilizing agents can be added to the emulsion after the formation of the silver halide grains in the presence of rhodium salts. It has been unexpectedly found that according to this invention even Where cadmium salts, such as cadmium bromide, are used in combination with manganous salts, effective stabilizing concentrations of cadmium are far below that required when only cadmium salts are used. For example, only about 15 percent to about percent by weight of cadmium bromide is needed in combination with water soluble manganous salts as compared to cadmium when used alone.
- the silver halide grains are precipitated in the presence of a rhodium salt and an organic thioether.
- a rhodium salt and an organic thioether Typical of the thioethers found useful in the practice of this invention are those thioether silver halide solvents described in U.S. Pat. 3,371,157 issued Sept. 6, -1966 to McBride.
- a preferred organic thioether is 1,8-dihydroxy-3,6-dithiaoctane. It has been found that said thioether-s can be used with great advantage in a concentration of from about 0.1 to about grams per mole of silver halide.
- the rhodium salts are particularly useful in a concentration of from about 0.01 to about 0.25 mg. of rhodium salt per mole of silver formed.
- the rhodium salt suitable for the present invention can be any water-soluble rhodium salt useful for the intended purpose and includes those disclosed in the U.S. patents discussed hereinbefore and are employed in the same manner.
- Typical useful rhodium salts are, for example, rhodium chloride, rhodium trichloride, rhodium ammonium chloride, etc.
- the rhodium salts can be employed in any concentration which is effective for the intended purposed. Especially good results were found when the concentration is from about 0.01 to about 0.25 milligram per mole of silver halide.
- Suitable water soluble manganous salts which are a source of manganous ions in the practice of this invention include the various water soluble inorganic manganous salts such as the chlorides, bromides, nitrates, sulfates and the like. Such salts can be hydrated, as is well known in the art and exemplified by MnCl 4H O, MnSO -H O and the like.
- MnCl 4H O MnSO -H O and the like.
- these water soluble, usually colorless or sometimes slightly pink inorganic acid salts are preferably derived from the strong acids such as hydrochloric, sulfuric, fiuoric, and nitric acids and the like.
- a high speed, high contrast photosensitive silver halide emulsion such as a silver chlorobromide emulsion which is prepared according to the processes described hereinabove.
- These emulsions are stabilized against speed loss, particularly upon storage for prol g d p iods of tim y st biliz g once tration of (1) a water soluble manganous salt or (2) a combination of said salt with cadmium bromide.
- Silver halide grains precipitated in the presence of a rhodium salt which are used in such emulsions can be thioether ripened such as with an organic thioether as in McBride U.S. Pat.
- Emulsions of this invention can contain a stabilizing concentration of a combination of a water soluble manganous salt and cadmium bromide wherein the manganous salt is present in about 15 weight percent to about weight percent. Where the water soluble manganous salt is used alone as a complete replacement of the cadmium salt, it is present in a stabilizing concentration of about 3 grams to about 50 grams per mole of silver.
- high speed and high contrast are terms well known in the art to refer respectively to photo-sensitive emulsions which require minimal light exposure to record a latent image and are best exemplified by the bromide and the bromoiodide emulsions.
- These emulsions generally comprise large, coarse grains having a grain size of from .5 m to about 1.5 mg.
- a preferred support is an alpha-olefin polymer coated paper, that is one coated with a polymer of an aolefin of 2 to 10 carbon atoms, such as polyethylene. This coating can be on one or both sides of the paper.
- any technique for making silver halide emulsions can be employed and these include the double-jet technique where solutions of potassium halide and silver nitrate are added to an aqueous gelatin solution already containing potassium bromide.
- the silver halide grains employed in this invention are chemically sensitized by any means suitable for this purpose, many methods having been previously described in the prior art.
- Chemical sensitization includes sensitization of the type described Antoine Hautot and Henri Saubenier in Science et Industries Photographiques," vol. XXVIII, January 1957, pages 1-23 and January 1957, pages 5756.
- Such chemical sensitization includes three major classes, viz, gold or noble metal sensitization, sulfur sensitization, such as by a labile sulfur compound, and reduction sensitization, i.e., treatment of the silver halide with a strong reducing agent which does not fog appreciably the silver halide but introduces small specks of metallic silver into the silver halide crystal or grain.
- the silver halide grains can likewise be chemically sensitized by any of the accepted procedures.
- Emulsions containing such grains can be digested with naturally active gelatin, or compounds of the sulfur group can be added, such as those described in Sheppard U.S. Pat. 1,574,944 issued Mar. 2, 1926; Sheppard et al. U.S. Pat. 1,623,499 issued Apr. 5, 1927; and Sheppard et al. U.S. Pat. 2,410,- 689 issued Nov. 5, 1946.
- Particularly good results are obtained with sulfur, selenium, tellurium sensitizers and the like.
- the rhodium treated silver halide grains can also be treated with other salts of the noble metals, such as ruthenium, palladium iridium, and platinum.
- Representative compounds are ammonium chloropalladate, potassium chloroplatinate, and sodium chloropalladite, which are used for sensitizing in amounts below that which produces any substantial fog inhibition, as described in Smith and Trivelli U.S. Pat. 2,448,060 issued Aug. 31, 1948, and as antifoggants in high amounts, as described in Trivelli and Smith U.S. Pats. 2,566,245 issued Aug. 28, 1951 and 2,556,263 issued Aug. 28, 1951.
- the silver halide grains can also be chemically sensitized with gold salts as described in Waller et al., U.S. Pat. 2,399,083 issued Apr. 23, 1946 and Damschroder et al., U.S. Pat. 2,642,361 issued June 16, 1953.
- Suitable compounds are potassium chloroaurite, potassium aurithiocyanate, potassium chloroaurate, auric trichloride and 2-aurosulfobenzothiazole methochloride.
- the silver halide grains can also be reduction sensitized with reducing agents, such as stannous salts (Carroll U.S. Pat. 2,487,850 issued Nov. 15, 1949), polyamines, such asdiethylene triamine (Lowe and Jones U.S. Pat. 2,518,698 issued Aug. 15, 1950), polyamines, such as spermine (Lowe and Allen U.S. Patent 2,521,925 issued Sept. 12, 1950), or bis(;3-aminoethyl)sulfide and its water-soluble salts (Lowe and Jones U.S. Patent 2,521,926, issued Sept. 12, 1950).

- EXAMPLE I A silver bromoiodide emulsion (1 mole percent iodide) is prepared using the double-jet technique. An aqueous From this it is seen that the replacement of the cadmium salts by a significantly smaller concentration of manganous salts results in a marked improvement in speed stabilization represented by a significant decrease in speed change on incubation and storage. Similar results are achieved as regards stabilization of speed loss when the silver bromoiodide emulsion is prepared in the absence of the organic thioether silver halide solvent.
