FOR TRANSFERRING AN IMAGE FROM THE TRANSFER ELEMENT TO RECEPTOR SURFACE

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a silver halide photographic transfer element and to a method of applying a photographic image to a receptor element. More specifically, the present invention relates to photographic films or prints having images which are capable of being directly transferred to, for instance, a textile such as a shirt or the like without requiring the use of commercial equipment, such as video cameras, computers, color copiers, home and/or lithographic printers.

2. Description of the Prior Art

Textiles such as shirts (e.g., tee shirts) having a variety of designs thereon have become very popular in recent years. Many shirts are sold with pre-printed designs to suit the tastes of consumers. In addition, many customized tee shirt stores are now in business which permit customers to select designs or decals of their choice. Processes have also been proposed which permit

customers to create their own designs on transfer sheets for application to tee shirts by use of a conventional iron, such as described in U.S. Patent No. 4,244,358 issued September 23, 1980, to the present inventor. Furthermore, U.S. Patent No. 4,773,953 issued September 27, 1988, to the present inventor is directed to a method for utilizing a personal computer, a video camera or the like to create graphics, images, or creative designs on a fabric.

Therefore, in order to attract the interest of consumer groups which are already captivated by the tee shirt rage described above, the present inventor provides the capability of transferring photographic images directly to a receiver element using a material capable of holding and transferring an image. A unique advantage of the invention is to enable all consumers to wear and display on apparel their favorite moments captured on film and to do so in the single most cost and time efficient means.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Accordingly, the present invention is directed to a silver halide photographic transfer element which comprises a support having a front and rear surface, a

transfer coating layer on the front surface of the support comprising a material capable of holding an image that can be transferred to a receptor surface upon the application of energy to the rear surface of the support, and at least one silver halide light sensitive emulsion layer on the front surface of the support.

The silver halide photographic element of the invention is applicable to color paper (e.g., print and reversal) , color negative film, color reversal film, color diffusion transfer film units (e.g., instant type prints), black and white film or paper, or the like.

The receptor surface for the image may be a textile such as a shirt (e.g., tee shirt) or the like.

Preferably, the transfer coating layer is located between the support and the at least one silver halide light sensitive emulsion layer.

The thickness of the transfer coating layer is preferably about h mil to 2 mil and more preferably about 1 mil. The method for applying a photographic image to a receptor element comprises the steps of:

(a) exposing imagewise a silver halide photographic transfer element comprising a support having a front

surface and a rear surface, a transfer coating layer on the front surface of the support comprising a material capable of holding an image that can be transferred to a receptor surface upon the application of energy to the rear surface of the support, and at least one silver halide light sensitive emulsion layer on the front surface of the support,

(b) developing the imagewise exposed silver halide light sensitive photographic element to form a photographic image,

(c) positioning the front surface of the silver halide photographic element against the receptor element, and

(d) applying energy to the rear surface of the silver halide photographic element to transfer the photographic image to said receptor element.

The transfer coating layer of the silver halide photographic element preferably comprises a Singapore Dammar type resin. The type of energy used for transferring the photographic image to the receptor element is preferably heat or pressure.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The present invention will become more fully understood from the detailed description given hereinbelow, and the accompanying drawings which are given by way of illustration only, and thus are not limitative of the present invention, and wherein:

FIGURE 1 is a cross-sectional view of the preferred embodiment of the silver halide photographic transfer element of the present invention; and FIGURE 2 illustrates the step of ironing the silver halide photographic transfer element onto a tee shirt or the like.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Referring to Figure 1, there is generally illustrated a cross-sectional view of the silver halide photographic transfer element 10 of the present invention.

The transfer element 10 comprises a suitable support or substrate 20 which may be any type of material ordinarily used as a support for photographic materials. Examples thereof include cellulose acetate films, cellulose acetate propionate films, cellulose nitrate films, cellulose

acetate butyrate films, polyethylene terephthalate films, polystyrene films, polycarbonate films, and laminated sheets of these films and papers. Suitable papers include papers coated with a polymer of an alpha olefin and preferably an alpha olefin having 2 to 10 carbon atoms, such as polyethylene, polypropylene, etc. , and baryta- coated papers, etc.

A transfer coating of a release material 30 capable of holding a developed image which can then be transferred to a receptor surface is coated on the support or substrate. The release material provides a colorfast image when transferred to the receptor surface. Suitable release materials include but are not limited to Singapore Dammar resin (m.p. 115 ^β C), Batavia Dammar resin (m.p. 105"C) , accroide (yucca) resin (m.p. 130 ^β C), East India resins (m.p. 140-174 ^β C), Kauri resins (m.p. 130-160°C) , Manila resins (m.p. 120-130 ^β C) , pontianak (m.p. 135°C), and acrylics. A preferable release material which is coated on the support is Singapore Dammar resin. The release material may be coated on the support in any desired thickness by any suitable conventional coating technique (e.g., spin coating, rollers such as graveuer or rubber, spray or knife application) .

Preferably, the release material is in the range of about mil to 2 mil in thickness when dry, and more preferably, the thickness of the release coating is about 1 mil.

The release coating may be optionally coated on known transfer papers such as a transfer paper manufactured by Kimberly-Clark Corporation under the trademark "TRANSEEZE". Alternatively, the silver halide light sensitive emulsion layers may be directly coated onto known types of transfer papers having suitable properties as the coated supports of the present invention. Thus, "TRANSEEZE" per se may be suitable as a support and transfer coating layer for the present invention.

The photographic support or substrate which is coated with the transfer coating (e.g., release coating) is subsequently coated with the desired photographic emulsions in a conventional manner by methods known to one of ordinary skill in the art.

One preferred application of this invention is directed to photographic transfer elements capable of producing multicolor dye images. Such a photographic transfer element comprises a support, a transfer coating (e.g., release coating layer such as Singapore Dammar resin) and a plurality of color forming layers coated

thereon. The color forming layers include at least one blue recording yellow dye image forming layer, at least one green recording magenta dye image forming layer, and at least one red recording cyan dye image forming layer. Each image forming layer includes at least one silver halide emulsion layer. A dye image providing material can be located in the emulsion layer, in an adjacent layer, or introduced during development. The blue sensitive emulsion layers can rely on native sensitivity to blue light or contain a blue sensitizing dye adsorbed to the silver halide grains of the blue sensitive layers. Spectral sensitizing dyes capable of absorbing green and red light are adsorbed to silver halide grain surfaces in the emulsions of the green and red recording color forming layers, respectively.

To prevent color contamination of adjacent color layers, oxidized development product scavengers including an oxidized developing agent and oxidized electron transfer agents can be incorporated at any location in the color forming layers or in an interlayer separating adjacent color forming layers. Suitable scavengers include alkyl substituted aminophenols and hyroquinones as disclosed in U.S. Patent Nos. 2,336,327 and 2,937,086, sulfoalkyl

substituted hydroquinones as disclosed in U.S. Patent 2,701,197, and sulfonamido substituted phenols as disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,205,987.

The order of the photographic layers on the support is any order conventional in the art. For example, in color print paper, the order of layers starting from the support is a blue sensitive layer, an interlayer, a green sensitive layer, an U.V. layer, a red sensitive layer, an U.V. layer and a surface overcoat. In the photographic materials of the present invention various conventionally known hydrophilic colloids are used. Examples of typical hydrophilic colloids used as the binders for photographic silver halide emulsions and other emulsions such as non-light sensitive emulsions (e.g., surface overcoat, interlayers, etc.) for the photographic layers include gelatin; sugar derivatives such as agar agar, sodium alginate, starch derivatives, etc. ; casein; cellulose derivatives such as carboxymethyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose etc. ; colloidal albumin; synthetic hydrophilic colloids such as polyvinyl alcohol, poly-N-vinylpyrrolidone, polyacrylic acid copolymers, maleic anhydride copolymers, polyacrylamide, and the derivatives or partially hydrolyzed products thereof. A

mixture of two or more of these colloids may be used when the combination is compatible with each other.

Gelatin is generally used in the hydrophilic colloid layers of the photographic materials. However, gelatin may be replaced partially or wholly with a synthetic polymer. Examples of synthetic polymers include water-dispersed vinyl polymers in the form of a latex, including compounds capable of increasing dimensional stability of the photographic materials when used in place of or together with a hydrophilic water permeable colloid.

The silver halide photographic emulsion used in the present invention may be prepared by mixing an aqueous solution of a water-soluble silver salt such as silver nitrate with an aqueous solution of a water soluble halogen salt such as potassium bromide in the presence of a water soluble polymer solution such as an aqueous solution of gelatin. The silver halide may be silver chloride, silver bromide, etc. , or mixed silver halides such as silver chlorobromide, silver chloriodide, etc. These silver halide grains may be prepared according to conventionally known processes. Examples of such known processes include the so-called single jet method, the so-called double jet method, or the controlled double jet method. In addition.

two or more different silver halide emulsions separately prepared may be used together.

The silver halide photographic emulsions may also contain compounds to prevent the formation of fog during production, processing or preserving the photographic material, and to prevent a reduction in sensitivity. Suitable compounds for this purpose include l-phenyl-5- mercaptotetrazole, 3-methylbenzothiazole, 4-hydroxy-6- methyl-l,3,3a,7-tetrazaindene and many metal salts, mercury-containing compounds, mercapto compounds and heterocyclic compounds, etc.

The silver halide emulsions may be chemically sensitized in a conventionally known manner. Suitable chemical sensitizers include gold compounds such as gold trichloride, salts of noble metals such iridium and rhodium; sulfur compounds capable of forming silver sulfide by causing reaction with a silver salt such as sodium thiosulfate; amines, stannous salts, and other reducing compounds. Moreover, the silver halide photographic emulsions may be spectrally sensitized or super dye sensitized using cyamine dyes such as merocyanine, carbocyanine, or cyanine alone or in combinations thereof or using a combination of

cyanine dyes and styryl dyes. The selection of such dyes depends upon the object and use of the photographic materials including the desired sensitivity and the wavelength regions. The hydrophilic colloid layers may be hardened with cross-linking agents such as vinyl sulf te compounds, active halogen compounds, carboiimide compounds, etc.

The dye forming couplers suitably used in this invention include cyan, magenta and yellow dye forming couplers. These couplers may be 4-equivalent couplers or

2-equivalent couplers as described in U.S. Patent Nos.

3,458,315 and 3,277,155.

Examples of suitable yellow dye-forming couplers include those described in U.S. Patent Nos. 3,384,657, 3,277,155, 3,253,924, 3,227,550, 4,026,706, 2,428,054, 2,908,573, 2,778,658, 2,453,661 and 2,499,966.

Examples of suitable magenta dye forming couplers include those described in U.S. Patent Nos. 4,026,706, 2,725,292, 3,227,550, 2,600,788, 3,252,924, 3,062,653, 2,908,573, 3,152,896 and 3,311,476.

Examples of suitable cyan dye forming couplers which can be used in the invention include those described in U.S. Patent NOS. 3,043,892, 4,026,706, 2,275,292,

3,253,294, 2,474,293, 3,227,550, 2,423,730, 2,908,573 and 2,895,826.

A further general discussion of suitable couplers is described in Photographic Chemistry by Glafkides, volume 2, pages 596-615 and Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, Vol. 5, p. 822-825.

Dyes may be formed by the reaction of the couplers with an oxidized aromatic primary amine silver halide developing agent during conventional processing. Typical processing steps for color negative films and color print papers are development, bleach, fix, washing, optionally stabilization and then drying. Two or more of these steps may be combined into a single step. For instance, the bleaching and fixing steps may be combined into a single bleach-fix step. Color development is usually carried out in an alkaline solution containing an aromatic primary amine developing agent such as aminophenol, phenylenediamine or a mixture thereof.

Where it is desired to reverse the sense of the color image, such as in color slide processing, reversal processing can be undertaken. A typical sequence for reversing color processing includes black and white development, stop, washing, fogging, washing, color

development, washing, bleaching, fixing, washing, stabilizing and drying. An optional prehardening bath prior to black and white development may be employed. The washing step can be omitted or relocated in the sequence. The fogging bath can be replaced by uniform light exposure or by the use of a fogging agent in the color development step to render the silver halide not developed in the black and white step developable.

When the color photographic material of the present invention is a color photographic diffusion transfer film unit the processing of the photographic material is carried out automatically in the photographic material. In these instant product type units, the color developer containing a color developing agent is contained in a rupturable container. Suitable developing agents include l-phenyl-4- methyl-hydroxymethyl-3-pyrazolidone, l-phenyl-3- pyrazolidone, N-methylamino-phenol, l-phenyl-4,4-dimethyl- 3-pyrazolidone, and 3-methoxy-N,N-diethyl-p-phenylene- diamine. Accordingly, in order to form color images in photographic materials various known methods can be used, including the coupling reaction of the above-described dye- forming color couplers and the oxidation products of a p-

phenylenediamine series color developing agent; the oxidation cleavage reaction of DRR compounds, the dye releasing reaction upon coupling of DDR couplers; the dye forming reaction upon the coupling reaction of DDR couplers and a silver dye bleaching process.

Therefore, the present invention can be applied to various types of color photographic materials such as color positive films, color papers, color negative films, color reversal films, color diffusion transfer film units, silver dye bleaching photographic materials, black and white films and papers, etc.

Representative methods thereof are set forth in U.S. Patent Nos. 4,822,728, 4,743,533, 4,710,455, 4,705,747, 4,680,247, 4,659,647, 4,654,293, 4,636,457, 4,634,661, 4,619,884, 4,588,672, 4,565,778, 5,552,834, 4,529,690, 4,459,353, 4,499,174, 4,144,070, 4,379,837 and Reissue 32,149.
