Abstract
Abstract A photographic silver halide material with at least one halide emulsion layer and at least one substance in heterogeneous contribution emulsified in oilformer compounds and a process of preparing the said photographic silver halide materials. The substances are introduced into photographic emulsions prior to coating by way of adding a hydrophilic phase containing in emulsified form the substances which are emulsified in the hydrophilic phase in form of a solution containing at least one substantially diffusion-resistant, substantially water-insoluble, substantially non-coupling dispersible β-diketo compound with at least 9 carbon atoms, β-keto carboxylic acid ester, β-keto carboxylic acid amide, cyanoacetyl compound or β-dicarboxylic acid ester with at least 13 carbon atoms as oilformer. The photographic material shows advantageous results i.a. with respect of stability of the emulsified substances in the layers and excellent sensitometric results.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
232 words
A process for the production of photographic layers containing emulsified substances in heterogeneous distribution comprising the step of emulsifying the substances in solubilized form into a hydrophilic phase in the presence of an oilformer compound and applying the emulsion formed to a substrate, the emulsified substances are selected from the group consisting of couplers, UV-absorbers, white toners or stabilizers (to dissolve said substances, wherein the improvement comprises providing a substantially diffusion-resistant, substantially water-insoluble, substantially non-coupling oilformer compound which is of the formula R.sub.1 -- CO -- CH.sub.2 -- R.sub.2 wherein R 2 represents a cyano group or the group COR 3 , R 1 and R 3 represents alike or different groups selected of linear or branched chain alkyl with up to 20 carbon atoms, cyclohexyl and cyclopentyl groups, aryl groups, aralkyl groups, alkoxy groups, aroxy groups and aralkoxy groups; the total number of carbon atoms in R 1 and R 3 amounting to at least 6, if R 1 an R 3 both are alkyl or together complete an alkyl substituted or aryl substituted or annelated heterocyclic, heteroaromatic or aromatic ring and the total number of carbon atoms in R 1 and R 3 amounting to at least 10, if R 1 represents alkoxy and R 3 represents alkoxy or aralkoxy, which oilformer compound is capable of stabilizing the photographic layers against the damaging influence of aldehyde-containing or releasing hardening agents.
