Silver halide photographic material capable of being handled in a bright room during steps of photomechanical process

Claim 1

A silver halide photographic material which may be handled in a bright room, which comprises a support having provided thereon at least one silver halide emulsion layer containing silver chlorobromide grains with a bromide contant of not more than 10 mol% of silver chloride grains, said emulsion layer containing 1×10 -6 mol to 5×10 -4 mol of a rhodium salt per mol of silver, said emulsion layer being not chemically sensitized, and said emulsion layer of at least one other hydrophiclic colloid layer containing at least one hydrazine derivative represented by the following general formula (I): ##STR15## wherein R represents an organic group having 1 to 30 carbon atoms; A represents a substituted or unsubstituted phenylene group or a substituted or unsubstituted naphthylene group; X represents --NH-- or --O--; L 1 represents a straight, branched or cyclic alkylene group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, an aralkylene group having 7 to 20 carbon atoms, a phenylene group, or a divalent group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, wherein these groups are linked to each other through --O--, --S--, --CO--, --CONH-- or --COO--; L 2 represents --CONH--, --SO 2 NH--, --O-- or --S--; i and j each independently represents 0 or 1; and B represents a hydrogen atom, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, a substituted or unsubstituted phenyl group having 6 to 20 carbon atoms, a substituted or unsubstituted aralkyl group having a total of 7 to 20 carbon atoms and 1 to 3 carbon atoms in the alkyl moiety thereof, a substituted or unsubstituted alkoxy group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, or a substituted or unsubstituted phenoxy group having 6 to 20 carbon atoms and wherein at least one of said emulsion layer and said at least one other hydrophilic colloid layer contains at least one amine compound represented by the following general formula (II): ##STR16## wherein: X.sup.⊖ represents an anion; R 1 represents --Y--R 3 , --Y--COOR 3 , --Y--OCOR 3 , --Y'--COO--Y--OCOR 3 , --Y'--OCO--Y--COOR 3 , or --Y'--COO--Y--COOR 3 , wherein Y represents an alkylene group, an arylene group or an aralkylene group; and Y' represents a single bond, an alkylene group, an arylene group or an aralkylene group; R 3 represents an alkyl group, an aryl group, an aralkyl group, ##STR17## wherein R 4 represents an alkyl group, an aryl group or an aralkyl group; Y" is the same as defined for Y'; and R 2 is defined to be the same as R 1 above or represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, analkyl group, an aryl group, an aralkyl group, an oxycarbonyl group, an acyloxy group, an alkony group, an amino group, a substituted amino group, an acylamido group, a sulfonamido group, a carbamoyl group, or ##STR18## provided that at least one ester exists in R 1 or R 2 .
