摘要:
Aqueous-based thermally sensitive emulsions and photothermographic imaging materials include photosensitive silver halide grains that comprise at least 15 mol % iodide based on total silver in the grains and are doped with bismuth (+3). These materials have increased photographic speed especially in the infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Aqueous-based thermally developable emulsions and photothermographic imaging materials include photosensitive silver halide core-shell grains that comprise at least 20 mol % iodide based on total silver, an amount of iodide in the core of the grains that can be up to the iodide saturation limit in silver iodobromide, and an amount of iodide in the shell of the grains that is at least 2 mol % less than the amount of iodide present in the core, and further provided that the total amount of silver in the shell is from about 10 to about 80 mol % of total silver in the grains. These materials provide desired Dmax and reduced image “print out”.
摘要:
The present disclosure relates to aqueous dispersions of silver (carboxylate-azine toner) particles wherein the azine content of the particles is from about 0.01 to 10% by weight relative to silver carboxylate. The carboxylates are typically silver salts of long chain fatty acids and the azine toners are the compounds that function as development accelerators and toning agents such as phthalazine. These silver (carboxylate-azine) particles can be used to formulate imaging forming compositions that are useful in aqueous thermographic or photothermographic imaging elements.

Aqueous-based thermally sensitive emulsions and photothermographic imaging materials include phthalazine N-oxide or a derivative thereof to improve raw stock keeping and to extend the useful range of processing temperatures without interfering with spectral sensitization. The emulsions and photothermographic materials may also include a cyclic imide, phthalazinone, benzoxazine dione, benzthiazine dione, or quinazoline dione as a development promoter.

摘要:
A process for precipitating a high bromide silver halide emulsion in an aqueous medium is disclosed comprising growing nucleated silver halide grains in a reaction vessel in the presence of a peptizer comprising a water dispersable starch to form high bromide radiation-sensitive silver halide grains, wherein the majority of grain growth in the reaction vessel is performed at a pH of less than 3.5. Growth of high bromide silver halide emulsion grains in the presence of a starch peptizer at low pH in accordance with the invention results in emulsion grains with lower fog, even in the absence of the use of strong oxidizing agents during grain precipitation.
摘要:
A process for precipitating a high bromide silver halide emulsion in an aqueous medium is described comprising precipitating high bromide radiation-sensitive silver halide grains in a reaction vessel in the presence of a peptizer comprising a water dispersable starch, wherein a strong oxidizing agent is added to the reaction vessel during or after the precipitation at a pH of less than 4.0 such that an oxidation potential of at least 650 mV (Ag/AgCl ref.) is achieved. A reduction in the rate of reaction between strong oxidants such as bromine and starch at such low pH has been found to enable an advantageous decrease in the amount of oxidant required to achieve and maintain a high oxidation potential during emulsion grain precipitation. Starch, unlike gelatin, also advantageously has adequate stability at the combination of high acidity and high emulsion precipitation temperatures.

A process for precipitating a high chloride silver halide emulsion in an aqueous medium is disclosed comprising growing nucleated silver halide grains in a reaction vessel in the presence of a peptizer comprising a water dispersable starch to form high chloride radiation-sensitive silver halide grains, wherein the majority of grain growth in the reaction vessel is performed at a pH of less than 3.5. Growth of high chloride silver halide emulsion grains in the presence of a starch peptizer at low pH in accordance with the invention results in emulsion grains with lower fog, even in the absence of the use of strong oxidizing agents and antifoggants during grain precipitation.
