11. Direct positive photographic material according to claims 1 to 4, characterized in that it is a methine dye of the formula

The invention relates to a direct positive photographic material and in particular a direct positive emulsion with one in the visible spectral range improved sensitivity.

It is known that by using the Herschel effect or the solarization effect directly can lead to positive photographic images.

During solarization, the image is reversed due to excessive exposure; is a layer up to pre-exposed to the greatest possible blackness, this decreases according to the further exposure. At the Herschel effect is a developable blackening produced by an exposure second exposure to light of greater wavelength weakened. The decrease in blackening takes place in contrast to solarization, this happens immediately at the beginning of the second exposure. She is independent on the size of the blackening of the first exposure. In both cases attempts have been made to use the photographic one To increase the sensitivity of the recording material.

The sensitizing dyes known for the spectral sensitization of negative emulsions cannot simply be incorporated into direct positive emulsions that are used in solarization technology are provided. They bring a number of serious disadvantages here, such as: B. a discoloration of the white image areas, plus a flattening of the gradation curve and / or increased blackening in the exposed parts either immediately after exposure or during storage of the Materials.

In order to overcome these disadvantages, it has been proposed to use special sensitizing dyes. In this context, the methine dyes and especially the 2-phenylindole group. Dyes of this type are described in British Patents 825,965 and 970 601. Their sensitizing effect in the usual negative emulsions is weak. An increase in the sensitivity of direct positive emulsions made using the Herschel effect can be processed with dyes that are desensitizing in negative emulsions work (C. E. K. Mees, The Theory of the Photographic Process, Revised Edition (1954), Macmillan Company New York, p. 263). In this context it is particularly aimed at desensitizing Nitrstyryl and nitrobenzylidene type dyes as indicated in British Patents 667,206, 698,576 and 834,839 are described. :

The invention is based on the object of providing a direct positive photographic material with improved Develop overall sensitivity and storage stability. ., ■■■ <

Other suitable aromatic methine dyes having a nitro group are disclosed in British Patents 262 816, 667 206, 698 575, 698 576, 834 839, the German patent specification 396 402 and the USA patent specification 2 953 561.

When preparing the emulsion, the dyes are expediently added in the form of solutions. Suitable solvents are, for example, alcohols such as methanol or ethanol. The desensitizing one Dye is preferably used in an amount of 0.15 to 3.5 moles per mole of the optically sensitizing Dye applied, while the latter dye in an amount of 0.02 to 1 millimole per mole of silver halide is used.

In practice, 10 to 500 mg and preferably 100 to 250 mg of des is generally used spectral sensitizing dye per mole of silver halide. In special cases, however, it is also possible to use larger quantities.

The direct positive emulsions are produced according to the usual methods. You can use silver chloride, -bromide, -iodide or mixtures of the halides. Emulsions with are preferred at least 50% silver bromide. With the expression "direct positive emulsions" are obscured Emulsions which can be developed without a shimmering exposure after the imagewise exposure are.

The fogging of the emulsion can be done either by pre-exposure or by chemical means by increasing the pH value or by adding reducing agents such as tin compounds, can be achieved.

The following example shows the beneficial effect the inventive combination of spectral sensitizing compounds with desensitizing Links.

example

For each 1 kg of a washed photographic film chemically obscured with a reducing agent Emulsion containing 60 g of a silver iodide / bromide emulsion contains (95 mol percent AgBr and 5 mol percent AgI), it is applied to a cellulose triacetate support before application the amounts of the sensitizing compounds given in Table 3.

The finished emulsion layers are marked by a continuous gray wedge with the constant 0.2 exposed. It does this in two different ways. One exposes with a fluorine essence lamp, the other time with a 375 watt frosted glass bulb.

A group of emulsion strips of the same type is now after normal storage at room temperature exposed and processed, while a second group prior to exposure and processing Store for 36 hours at 34% relative humidity and 57 ° C.

A normal developer based on hydroquinone and N-methylp-aminophenyl hemisulfate is used for development used.

The total sensitivity is given in percent and based on a comparison emulsion, whose overall sensitivity was arbitrarily set at 100. The overall sensitivity is in marked with the letter S in the table. The blackening in the exposed areas is a measure for the quality of the whites and is denoted by D in the table.
