PHOTOGRAPHIC EMULSION WITH MERCURY COMPOUND AND PROCESS MAKING THE SAME.

so cal function properly as a developing-out emulsion, and will have greatly improved prop-.
erties because of the use or presence therein of materials, the sensitizing properties of which, in such emulsions, we have discovered. Another object. of our invention is to provide emulsions of the above mentioned type in which the light-sensitiv'eness is so improved as to fall within the range of the light-sensitivenesses of the Well known ed gaslight emulsions. By the term lightsensitiveness, we include the ability of the emulsion to give the earliest visible impression or image with the minimum exposur or its ability to give, density after a giv exposure or bot the usual photographic fluid treatments being used. in preparing such impression or image or is to provide improved processesfor making such improved emulsions. Other objects will hereinafter appear.
The usual light-sensltive emulsions employed in the photographic art comprise a colloid, such as gelatin, um arabic, collodion, or the like, in WhlCh are dispersed minute particles of light-sensitive silver salts, ich as the bromide,- chlorideand iodide. WVhen attempts have-been made to prepare corresponding emulsions, by uspounds. Broadly speaking each compound ing salts of mercury instead of salts of silver, the resulting products have p'ossesed only slight light-sensitiveness. A latent image has been detectable and developable only after prolonged exposure.- Their sensitiveness has been markedly inferior to that of aslight emulsions. I
e have found that such colloid-mercury-compound emulsions can be remark- Another object of the invention Application filed November 4, 195.25. Serial No. 66,853.,
a selenium atom-in another series, a tellurium atom in still another series) which is joined by a double bond to a single metalloid atom (not one bond to one atom, and the other bond to a different atom) to which at least another group of atoms is attached. The metalloid atom to which the atom of sulfur, selenium, or tellurium 1s joined by .a double bond is in-many 'instances, but not necessarily, a carbon atom. Said another group of atoms preferably is one which induces a chemical aflinity to ward the mercury salt.
For some .ofthepreferred examples of our invention, we select from the above series the followin subseries,thiocarbamids, selenocarbamids, and 'tellurocarbamids; As the corresponding carbimids are likewise usable in preferred examples of our invention and are readily chan ed into said carbamids, it will be un erstood that the corresponding carbimids areincluded hereinafter when said carbamids are claimed. These subseries of carbamids and the corresponding. tellurium compounds;
Not only can each compound of Our series carbimids include many compounds containng one or moreasubstituent radicals, such an alkyl, ar 1, acyl, alkyl-oxy, aryl-oxy, etc.,,
groups. T us, for example, allylthlourea (thiosinamine) containing 'an'allyl radic'al in place of one of the' hydrogen atoms of thiourea, is especially useful in our invention. So are. allyl isothiocyanate, allyl isoselenocyana-te, allyl selenourea, and
of light-sensitizers be used alone to improve an emulsion (or colloid for an emulsion) but two or more of such pom ounds ma be' used together to obtain them mutua or cumulative effects.
'It is a common characteristic of the compounds which we use, that said double bonded atom of the sulfur group is chemically held in the molecule withintermediate firmness. Consequently said double bonded ably improved, especially as regardstheir.
light-sensitiveness, by having incorporated thereln one or more related chemical comsulfur-group atoms in our compounds correspond roughly in the firmness with which they are held to the firmness with which the sulfur atoms are held in the so-calleo'.v potential mercaptans, although there is, of course, some range of difference in the firmness with which said double-bonded atoms practicing enid, and silver tellurid. The intermediate firmness with .which said double-bonded atoms are held in our compounds facilitates this scattered formation or reaction without reacting on the whole of each grain. Since this deduction is not indispensable to the practical using of our invention, we do not wish to be limited to it except as defined in the claims.
We have also found that the best proportions of sensitizing compounds, relative to the rest of the emulsion, are very small.
While these pro ortions are variable, the
amount of sensitlzin compound is usually less than 1 /1000 of t e weight of the other ingredients of the emulsion. Of course, the amount for any particular emulsion is readily adjusted by test so as to obtain the maximum sensitiveness, compatible with the pro duction of a good image and freedom from fog and other defects. The proportion of sensitizing compound which accomplishes this purpose is determined about as readily, for example, as the proportion ofsulfur ermissible in steel for a particular urpose. t will vary with the proportion o gelatin or other colloid to the mercury compound, with the specific nature of the individual mercury compound or compounds which are employed, with the type of emulsion as regards grain size characteristics and alkalinity and so forth.
In consequence of the very small proportions of our sensitizing compounds which are employed in the mercury emulsions,the addition of them does not harmfully dilute the emulsion; nor does it afl'ct the physical properties of the latter. Thus the use of our compounds rovides adependable way for. controlling t e properties of the colloid-mer cury-compound emulsions. The sensitizer compounds can be added without any colloid, such as gelatin, and are, therefore, independent thereof. .Moreover, the grain size characteristics of the emulsion are not affected by the additions of our compounds, they being independently controlled by the emulsion maker. v
Illustrative examples of the compounds comprlsed within'our series are thiosinamine, (allyl thiourea) allyl isothiocyanate, phenyl isothiocyanate, phenyl thiourea, thiocarbanilide, thiourea thiosemicarbazide, sodium thiosulfate, (but not sulfate or sulfite dio-tolyl thiourea, seleno-mustard-oil allyl lsoselenocyanate), potassium selenocyanidc, allyl selenourea, thioacetamid, thioformamid, thiobarbiturimacid, telluro-mustard-oil gelatino-silver-bromide (allyl isotellurocyanate) potassium tellurocyanide, allyl tellurourea. It is preferable to use these compounds in substantially pure or C. P. form; but impurities, which are harmless to the emulsion and are not bulky, can be tolerated. The selenocyanide and tellur'ocyanide are used in higher proportions than the other listed compounds.
Just as silver halide, -silver chloride, sil-v ver bromide and silver iodide, are used singly or in mixture in the usual photographic emulsions, so we prefer to use one or more mercury halids. We have found that an emulsion of mercuric iodide has excellent properties and we shall now describe the preparation of such an emulsion by way of example; but it will be understood that the invention is not limited to the employment of mercury iodide, or to the other details thus given, except as indicated in the appended claims.
In 6,000 parts of water we dissolve 800 parts of gelatin. We also dissolve 200 parts of mercuric chloride, HgCl,, in 1000 parts of water. This amount of mercuric chloride is dissolved in the water by any of the known expedients, such as by heating to about 80 C. These solutions are then mixed, and any coagulum which may form, is redissolved by continual stirring at about C. A solution of 240 parts of potassium iodide, KI, is prepared in 760 parts of water. Into this are stirred about 20 parts of a 20% aqueous chrom alum solutlon. This solution containing the potassium iodide and alum is then stirred into the solution containing gelatin and mercuric chloride. We
prefer to carefully stir the solutions as they are being added, and use a temperature of 65 C.
After the ingredients have been added to each other gradually, or step by step, with agitation, the emulsion is allowed to set, being cooled in any suitable manner, say by being brought under the influence of ice, or placed in a refrigerating chamber. After being set, the emulsion is shredded and washed for two hours or more. This removes the soluble salts formed by the reaction and is carried out in the same way that potassium bromide is washed out from emulsions during manufacture. After thorough washing and draining the emulsion is melted up.
We next incorporate the sensitizer into the emulsion. The latter is heated to 50 0., and to each 4000 volumes of it are added 200 volumes of a solutionof thiosinamine, this solution being made up with a strength of one part of thiosinamine in of water. Of course, the ingredients are thoroughly intermixed.
While the increase in sensitivene'ss is not absolutely dependent upon a heating operation, nevertheless we have found it highly advantageous to provide a ri ening or digestion step. For example, w en the sensitizer is added to the emulsion, as hereinabove described, the mixture is brought to a temperature of 80 C. and maintained at that temperature for 15 minutes. The temrature may vary considerably above and glow that amount. We have found useful results to be obtained over a range of from 60? C. to 100 (1., and this 'is'not a restrictive range. This brings about an especially-reflective action of the sensitizer on the emulsion, giving remarkable increase in speed as well as good density in the images or deposits formed in the emulsion. In
. these respects the emulsion is brought within the range of the well known gaslight emulsions.
It will be understood that the ripened emulsion is spread upon paper, film, glass or any other suitable or desirable support I in the customary manner. ,While the time and temperature of the ripening or digestion operation may be varied considerably,
' we prefer to conduct it in such a way that only relatively small amounts of red tetragonal mercuric iodide are present.
Having thus described our invention, what we claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
