Abstract
Abstract The present invention is directed to a photographic material based upon silver halide emulsions comprising an emulsion layer containing a diffusible dye, and an antihalation layer containing a mordant for fixing the diffusible dye superimposed directly over the emulsion layer, the antihalation layer having its maximum degree of absorption in the same spectal range as the maximum degree of sensitivity of the emulsion layer.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
104 words
A photographic material based upon silver halide emulsions, comprising (A) an emulsion layer containing at least one diffusible filtering dye and possessing maximum degree of sensitivity in a spectral range, and (B) an antihalation layer disposed immediately over said emulsion layer, (1) having a maximum degree of absorption in the spectral range of the maximum sensitivity of said emulsion layer, (2) having an optical density of at least 0.10 in the spectral range of the maximum sensitivity of said emulsion layer, and (3) containing at least one mordant in an amount suitable for fixing dye diffusing into said antihalation layer from said emulsion layer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
104 words
A photographic material based upon silver halide emulsions, comprising (A) an emulsion layer containing at least one diffusible filtering dye and possessing maximum degree of sensitivity in a spectral range, and (B) an antihalation layer disposed immediately over said emulsion layer, (1) having a maximum degree of absorption in the spectral range of the maximum sensitivity of said emulsion layer, (2) having an optical density of at least 0.10 in the spectral range of the maximum sensitivity of said emulsion layer, and (3) containing at least one mordant in an amount suitable for fixing dye diffusing into said antihalation layer from said emulsion layer.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
31 words
The material of claim 1 wherein said antihalation layer comprises an amount of mordant to fix about 20 to about 50% of the total concentration of dye within said antihalation layer.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
36 words
The material of claim 1 wherein said antihalation layer comprises an amount of mordant to obtain optical densities of about 0.10 at about 550 nm and about 0.08 at about 700 nm in said antihalation layer.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
55 words
The material of claims 1 or 2 comprising (A) at least one other layer besides said emulsion and antihalation layers, (B) at least one diffusible magenta dye, and (C) at least one diffusible blue-green dye; the amount of dye not fixed within said antihalation layer remaining freely movable throughout the other layers of said material.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
35 words
The material of claim 1 wherein the amount of dye in said emulsion layer provides a concentration of dye fixed by mordant in said antihalation layer of about 91 to about 200 mg/m 2 .
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
18 words
The material of claim 5 wherein said dye fixed by suitable mordant in said antihalation layer is tartrazine.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
23 words
The material of claim 1, wherein said antihalation layer contains about 50 g. per kg of gelatine of dye of the formula ##STR5##
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
17 words
The material of claim 7 wherein said antihalation layer is about 1.0 to about 1.4 μm thick.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
42 words
The material of claim 1, wherein said antihalation layer contains about 54 g. to about 100 g. per kg of gelatine of a polymeric mordant of the formula ##STR6## for fixing suitable dye diffusing into said antihalation layer from said emulsion layer.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
24 words
The material of claim 1, wherein said antihalation layer provides a concentration of dye fixed by suitable mordant of about 44 mg/m 2 .
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
35 words
The material of claim 1, wherein said antihalation layer provides a concentration of mordant of about 70 to about 78 mg/m 2 for fixing suitable dye diffusing into said antihalation layer from said emulsion layer.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
34 words
The material of claim 1 wherein said antihalation layer additionally comprises at least one component selected from the group consisting of wetting agents, hardeners, plasticizers, antistatic agents, antioxidants, uv-absorbers, clarifiers, stabilizers, and mixtures thereof.
