摘要:
A method for processing a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material comprises the steps of developing the light-sensitive material with a color developer containing an aromatic primary amine color developing agent, desilvering, washing with water and/or stabilizing the material in which at least one processing solution used in at least one step of the processing contains at least one compound selected from the group consisting of sulfinic acids and salts and precursors thereof. This method makes it possible to effectively prevent the formation of stains due to not only the components of the light-sensitive material per se but also those attributable to the processing solutions, during processing or storage with time, and to enhance the stability of processing solutions.

A method for processing a silver halide color photographic material is provided, which comprises subjecting an imagewise exposed silver halide color photographic material having at least one silver halide emulsion layer on a reflective support to color development for a period not exceeding 2 minutes and 30 seconds using a color-developing solution containing substantially no benzyl alcohol, a sulfite in a concentration of 8.times.10.sup.-3 mol/liter or less, and a hydroxylamine in a concentration of 1.5.times.10.sup.-2 mol/liter or less, thereby achieving high color densities of the developed images and reduced fog. The effects of this method are particularly significant in photographic paper containing a pyrazoloazole type magenta coupler.
摘要:
A method for processing silver halide photosensitive materials comprising developing an exposed silver halide photosensitive material, fixing the developed photosensitive material and then washing it with a washing water, the washing water used in the water washing process being replenished in an amount of 2 to 50 times the volume of liquid carried over by the photosensitive material from a bath preceding the water washing bath per unit area thereof, the amount of calcium and magnesium compounds present in the water washing bath being reduced to not more than 5 mg/l, respectively, on the basis of elemental calcium and magnesium and the washing water containing at least one chelating agent having a stability constant of a chelate, which is formed between the chelating agent and calcium or magnesium, of at least 6 is herein disclosed. The method makes it possible to suppress the increase in turbidity due to the proliferation of bacteria and molds in washing bath even when the processing is continuously conducted while substantially saving the amount of washing water and further provides an excellent processed photosensitive materials.
摘要:
In a method for processing silver halide photosensitive materials comprising developing an exposed silver halide photosensitive material, fixing the developed material and washing it with a washing water, the amount of calcium and magnesium compounds present in the replenishing washing water is reduced to not more than 5 mg/l on the basis of the weight of elemental calcium or magnesium and washing water is replenished in an amount of 1 to 50 times the volume of liquid carried over by the photosensitive material from a bath preceding the washing bath per unit area thereof or that the replenishing washing water is introduced into a washing bath after reducing the amount of calcium and magnesium compounds to the range mentioned above and sterilizing the same. The method makes it possible to substantially reduce the amount of washing water while reliably suppressing turbidity and proliferation of microorganisms in the washing water during and after completion of processing.
摘要:
A method for processing a silver halide color photographic material comprising a support having thereon at least one silver halide emulsion layer and containing a magenta dye forming coupler represented by formula (I) shown below and a compound represented by formula (II) shown below in the same layer is described, wherein the silver halide color photographic material is subjected to color development using a replenisher for a color developing solution, whose concentration of bromide is not more than 3.times.10.sup.-3 mol per liter and the amount of the replenisher for a color developing solution is not more than 900 ml per m.sup.2 of the silver halide color photographic material, wherein ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 represents an aromatic group, an aliphatic group or a heterocyclic group; R.sub.2 represents a substituent; Za, Zb, Zc and Zd, which may be the same or different, each represents an unsubstituted methine group, a substituted methine group or --N.dbd.; and formula (II) is represented by(R'--COO.sup.-).sub.n M.sup.n+ (III)wherein R' represents a substituent which imparts a diffusion-resistant property to the compound represented by formula (II); M.sup.n+ represents a hydrogen ion, a metal ion or an ammonium ion; and n represents an integer from 1 to 4.According to the method of the present invention, the amount of replenisher for a color developing solution can be reduced without adverse affects on photographic properties. Further, the formation of precipitates in the color developing solution is prevented and adhesion of scum onto the photographic material does not occur.
