Silver halide color photosensitive materials

Abstract: Color photographs of which the colored image has improved storage stability, which have a good overall cyan, magenta and yellow image color balance even after long term storage, and with which, moreover, little staining of the white base occurs, are obtained by means of this invention.

Description: FIELD OF THE INVENTION This invention concerns silver halide photographic materials which have excellent storage properties and, more precisely, the invention concerns silver halide color photographic materials of which the stability of the colored image with respect to light and heat during the storage of a color photograph is increased, and with which there is less coloration of the base (so-called staining) due to degradation of organic materials which have been included in the photosensitive materials, developing agents which are left behind in the photosensitive material after processing, and compounds derived therefrom. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The long term storage of silver halide color photographs in the same condition as that obtained immediately after development is very important when considering the possible use of photographs as records. A great deal of research effort has therefore been directed at this point. The stability of the dye images is an important factor in respect of the long term storage of color photographs. The dye images of silver halide color photographic materials are known to fade markedly, depending on the storage conditions, when they are stored for a long period of time in light, and also when they are exposed to light for short periods of time and stored for long periods of time in the dark. In general, the color fading in the former case is called light fading and that in the latter cases is called dark fading, and when color photographic materials are stored semi-permanently as records it is desirable that the extents of light fading and dark fading should be reduced to a minimum and that the overall color balance of the faded tricolor yellow, magenta and cyan dye images should be maintained in the initial state. However, the extents of light and dark fading differ for each of the yellow, magenta and cyan dye images, and after long term storage the aforementioned overall faded color balance is inevitably destroyed and the picture quality of the dye image inevitably deteriorates. The extents of light fading and dark fading differ according to the couplers which are used and other factors but, in many cases, dark fading arises most readily in the case of the cyan dye image, followed in order by the yellow dye image and the magenta dye image, and the extent of the dark fading of the cyan dye image is greater than that of the other dye images. Furthermore, in the case of light fading, the magenta dye image tends to fade most readily when a visible light source is used, followed in order by the cyan dye image and the yellow dye image. Thus, in order to maintain a good faded color balance between the yellow, magenta and cyan dye images over a long period of time it is necessary to reduce to a minimum the light and dark fading of the cyan dye image, and various attempts have been made in the past with a view to improving light and dark fading properties for this purpose. These past attempts can be broadly classified into two categories, namely those in which novel couplers which can form dye images which are less liable to fading have been developed and those in which novel additives which prevent fading from occurring have been developed. The former of these methods have been widely researched (U.S. Patent 2,801,171, JP-B-49-11572, U.S. Patent 2,895,826, JP-A-55-163537 and JP-A-56-104333, U.S. Patents 3,767,4125 and 4,03,716 and JP-B-48-30494, etc.) (the term "JP-A" as used herein signifies an unexamined published Japanese patent application, and the term "JP-B" as used herein signifies an examined published Japanese patent application), but not so many reports have been published in connection with the latter methods mentioned above, and as yet no effective method which can be used without some adverse effect has been discovered. A second important point in respect of the long term storage of color photographs involves the prevention of coloration of the white background which is to say the prevention of the occurrence of staining due to light and heat. The occurrence of staining can be broadly classified as that which is caused by the degradation of organic materials which are present in the photosensitive material from the start and that which is due to development bath components, especially primary aromatic amine compounds which are the developing agents and compounds derived therefrom, which are left behind in the photosensitive material after development processing. This staining not only causes coloration of the white base but also has a further disadvantage in that it reduces the image saturation of a color photograph. Silver halide color photographs reproduce a colored image with the three colors yellow, magenta and cyan but, of these, the hue of the magenta is of particular importance from the viewpoint of color reproduction. Progress has been made recently with the improvement of the magenta couplers which form the magenta dyes, and magenta couplers, such as the pyrazoloazole based couplers (U.S. Patent 4,540,654, JP-A-61-65245, etc.), which have a sharp spectral absorption without the subsidiary absorption in the vicinity of 430 nm, which is a major disadvantage of the existing 5-pyrazolone based couplers (JP-A-49-74027, JP-A-49-111631, etc.), have been discovered and put to practical use. The color reproduction in a silver halide color photograph is greatly improved by using these couplers, but the occurrence of staining during storage has become an even greater problem that it was in the past. Effective methods for preventing the occurrence of this staining have been proposed in U.S. Patents 4,463,085 and 4,483,918, in JP-A-59-218445 and JP-A-59-229557 and in U.S. Patents 4,358,525, 4,465,762, 4,522,917 and 4,661,440, etc., but as yet these have proved to be unsatisfactory as a means of preventing the occurrence of staining to a sufficiently high level. EP-A-0276319 discloses a combination of a pyrazoloazole magenta coupler and water-insoluble an organic solvent soluble polymer and an aliphatic ester. Said reference, however, does not disclose a silver chloride emulsion to be used along with this composition. EP-A-0280238 discloses compositions comprising a magenta coupler in a green-sensitive layer and a solvent in a UV absorbing layer but this composition is not used in an emulsion having a high silver chloride content of from 90 mol % or more. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Thus, the first aim of the invention is to provide silver halide color photographic materials with which sharp color photographs with which an excellent tricolor balance is maintained even on long term storage, and with which there is little deterioration of the colored image, can be obtained. The second aim of the invention is to provide silver halide color photographic materials with which it is possible to obtain color photographs with which there is very little coloration of the white background even on long term storage. As a result of thorough research, the inventors have discovered that the aforementioned aims can be realized in the way indicated below. Thus, the above mentioned aims can be realized by means of silver halide color photographic materials of which the distinguishing features are that, in a silver halide color photographic material comprising a support having provided thereon a plurality of photographic constituting layers comprising a light-insensitive hydrophilic colloid layer and a cyan dye-forming coupler-containing silver halide emulsion layer, magenta dye-forming coupler containing silver halide emulsion layer and a yellow dye-forming couplercontaining silver halide emulsion layer, wherein said silver halide emulsion layer contains a silver chlorobromide emulsion having a silver chloride content of from 90 mol% or more, and wherein said magenta dye-forming coupler is represented by the formula (I) below, and an organic solvent soluble polymer having a solubility in distilled water of not more than 3 grams in 100 grams of water is incorporated in at least one of said silver halide emulsion layers, and further an aliphatic ester solvent represented by the formula (II) or (III) below is incorporated in at least one of said light- insensitive hydrophilic colloid layer and said silver halide emulsion layers; wherein R₁ represents a hydrogen atom or a substituent group, and X represents a hydrogen atom or a group which can be eliminated during a coupling reaction with the oxidized form of a developing agent, Z a and Z b represent =CH-, or =N-, and when the double bond Z a =Z b is a carbon - carbon double bond, this double bond may form part of an aromatic ring, R₆ represents a substituent group, R₂-(COOR₃) m (II) (R₄COO) n -R₅ (III) wherein R₂ and R₅ represent alkylidene groups, alkylene groups, alkenylene groups, alkanetriyl groups, alkenetriyl groups, alkanetetrayl groups, alkenetetrayl groups, alkanepentayl groups or alkenepentayl groups, R₃ and R₄ represent alkyl groups, alkenyl groups or alkenyl groups which have not more than 20 carbon atoms, and m and n represent integer values of from 2 to 5, with the provisio that when the magenta coupler is and the aliphatic ester solvent is then the polymer is not a combination of polymethylmethacrylate and poly (n-tert-butylacrylamide), a combination of polyethylacrylate and poly(n-tert-butylacrylamide), poly(n-sec-butylacrylamide), poly(n-tert-butylacrylamide).

(B) Polymers Formed by Condensation and Polyaddition Reactions Polyesters formed from polyhydric alcohols and polybasic acids and polyamides formed from diamines and dibasic acids, and from ω-amino-ω′-carboxylic acids, are generally known as condensation polymers, and polymers such as the polyurethanes which are formed from diisocyanates and dihydric alcohols are known as polymers which have been formed by means of a polyaddition reaction. Glycols which have an OH-R₁-OH structure (where R₁ is a hydrocarbon chain, especially an aliphatic hydrocarbon chain, which has from 2 to about 12 carbon atoms), and polyalkyleneglycols are effective as polyhydric alcohols, and acids which have an HOOC-R₂-COOH structure (where R₂ represents a single bond or a hydrocarbon chain which has from 1 to about 12 carbon atoms) are effective as polybasic acids. Actual examples of polyhydric alcohols include ethyleneglycol, diethyleneglycol, triethyleneglycol, 1,2-propyleneglycol, 1,3-propylene glycol, trimethylolpropane, 1,4-butanediol, iso-butylenediol, 1,5-pentanediol, neopentylglycol, 1,6-hexanediol, 1,7-heptanediol, 1,8-octanediol, 1,9-nonanediol, 1,10-decanediool, 1,11-undecanediol, 1,12-dodecanediol, 1,13-tridecanediol, glycerine, diglycerine, triglycerine, 1-methylglycerine, erythritol, mannitol, sorbitol, etc. Actual examples of polybasic acids include oxalic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, adipic acid, pimelic acid, suberic acid, azelaic acid, sebacic acid, nonanedicarboxylic acid, decanedicarboxylic acid, undecanedicarboxylic acid, dodecanedicarboxylic acid, fumaric acid, maleic acid, itaconic acid, citraconic acid,phthalic acid, isophthalic acid, terephthalic acid, tetrachlorophthalic acid, metaconic acid, isopymelic acid, cyclopendadiene-maleic anhydride adduct, rosinmaleic anhydride adduct, etc. Examples of diamines include hydrazine, methylenediamine, ethylenediamine, trimethylenediamine, tetramethylenediamine, hexamethylenediamine, dodecamethylenediamine, 1,4-diaminocyolohexane, 1,4-diaminomethylcyclohexane, o-aminoaniline, p-aminoaniline, 1,4-diaminomethylbenzene, (4-aminophenyl)ether, etc. Examples of ω-amino-ω-carboxylic acids include glycine, β-alanine, 3-aminopropanoic acid, 4-aminobutanoic acid, 5-aminopentanoic acid, 11-aminododecanoic acid, 4-aminobenzoic acid, 4-(2-aminoethyl)benzoic acid, 4-(4-aminophenyl)butanoic acid, etc. Examples of diisocyanates include ethylenediisocyanate, hexamethylenediisocyanate, m-phenylenediisocyanate, p-phenylenediisocyanate, p-xylenediisocyanate, 1,5-naphthyldiisocyanate, etc. (C) Others For example, polyesters and polyamides which can be obtained by ring opening polymerization can be used. X in this equation represents an -O- group or an -NH- group, and m represents an integer of value 4 to 7. The -CH₂- groups may be branched. Monomers of this type include β-propiolactone, ε-caprolactone, dimethylpropiolactone, α-pyrrolidone, α-piperidone, ε-caprolactam and α-methyl-ε-caprolactam, etc. Two or more of any of the types of polymer of this invention disclosed above can be used conjointly. The molecular weight and degree of polymerization of the polymer of this invention have no great effect in practice on the effect of the invention, but problems arise with long time taken to dissolve in an auxiliary solvent as the molecular weight increases, and emulsification and dispersion become difficult because of the high solution viscosity, coarse particles are formed, and this can have an adverse effect on the color forming properties and it is also liable to give rise to problems such as failure of the coating properties. Reduction of the viscosity of the solution using large amounts of auxiliary solvent to overcome this problem gives rise to problems with a coating process. From the above mentioned point of view, the viscosity on dissolving 30 grams of the polymer in 100 cc of the auxiliary solvent which is being used is preferably not more than 5000 cps, and most desirably it is not more than 2000 cps. The molecular weights of the polymers which can be used in the invention are preferably not more than 150,000, and most desirably they are not more than 100,000. In this invention a water insoluble polymer is a polymer of which the solubility is not more than 3 grams, and preferably not more than 1 gram, in 100 grams of distilled water. The proportion with respect to the auxiliary solvent of the polymer of this invention differs according to the type of polymer which is being used, and varies over a wide range depending on solubility in the auxiliary solvent, the degree of polymerization, the solubility of the coupler, etc. Normally, the amount of auxiliary solvent used is that which is required to provide a solution on dissolving at least the coupler, the high boiling point coupler solvent and the polymer in the auxiliary solvent which has a sufficiently low viscosity for easy dispersion in water or in an aqueous hydrophilic colloid solution. The viscosity of the solution increases as the degree of polymerization of the polymer increases and so the proportion with respect to the auxiliary solvent of the polymer is not dependent just on the type of polymer and it is difficult to formulate a general rule, but normally a proportion (by weight) of from about 1:1 to 1:50 is preferred. The proportion (by weight) with respect to the coupler of the polymer of this invention is preferably from 1:20 to 20:1, and most desirably it is from 1:10 to 10:1. Some actual examples of polymers which can be used in the invention are indicated below, but the invention is not limited to these examples. Example of Synthesis 1 Preparation of Methyl Methacrylate Polymer (P-3) Methyl methacrylate (50.0 grams), 0.5 gram of poly(sodium acrylate) and 200 ml of distilled water were introduced into a 500 ml three necked flask and the mixture was heated to 80°C with stirring under a blanket of nitrogen. Dimethyl azobisisobutyrate (500 mg) was added as a polymerization initiator and polymerization started. The reaction mixture was cooled after polymerizing for a period of 2 hours and 48.7 grams of the polymer P-3 was obtained by recovering by filtration and washing with water the polymer which had been formed in the form of beads. Example of Synthesis 2 Preparation of t-Butylacrylamide Polymer (P-57) t-Butylacrylamide (50.0 grams) and 250 ml of toluene were introduced into a 500 ml three necked flask and heated to 80°C with stirring under a blanket of nitrogen. A toluene solution (10 ml) containing 500 mg of azobisisobutyronitrile was added as a polymerization initiator and polymerization started. The reaction mixture was cooled after polymerizing for a period of 3 hours and 47.9 grams of the polymer P-57 was obtained on recovering by filtration the solid which precipitated out on pouring the mixture into 1 liter of hexane, washing the solid with hexane, and drying the product by heating under reduced pressure. Embodiments of the invention are described below. There are many cases in which a magenta coupler which can be represented by the general formula (I) of this invention is used alone, and this is desirable from the point of view of color reproduction and from the point of view of the prevention of staining due to light but, where desired, mixtures with pyrazolone based magenta couplers which can be represented by the general formula (M-I) indicated below can also be used. General Formula (M-I) In this formula, R¹² represents an alkyl group, aryl group, acyl group or carbamoyl group. Ar represents a phenyl group or a phenyl group which is substituted with at least one halogen atom, alkyl group, cyano group, alkoxy group, alkoxycarbonyl group or acylamino group. Z C represents a hydrogen atom or a group which can be eliminated in a reaction with the oxidized form of a primary aromatic amine developing agent. More precisely, the alkyl group of R¹² in general formula (M-I) is preferably an alkyl group which has from 1 to 42 carbon atoms, and these may be substituted with halogen atoms, alkoxy groups, aryl groups, alkoxycarbonyl groups, aryloxycarbonyl groups, acylamido groups, sulfonamido groups, sulfamoyl groups, carbamoyl groups, aryloxy groups, alkylthio groups, arylthio groups, sulfonyl groups, cyano groups, acyloxy groups, aryloxy groups, imido groups, etc. The aryl groups of R¹² are preferably aryl groups which have from 6 to 46 carbon atoms, and these may be substituted with the same substituent groups as the alkyl groups of R¹². The acyl groups of R¹² are preferably aliphatic acyl groups which have from 2 to 32 carbon atoms, and aromatic acyl groups which have from 7 to 46 carbon atoms. These acyl groups may be substituted with the same substituent groups as the alkyl groups of R¹². The carbamoyl groups of R¹² are preferably aliphatic carbamoyl groups which have from 2 to 32 carbon atoms or aromatic carbamoyl groups which have from 7 to 46 carbon atoms, and these may be substituted with the same groups as the alkyl groups of R¹². Z C represents a hydrogen atom or a coupling leaving group, and examples of such groups include halogen atoms, alkoxy groups, aryloxy groups, acyloxy groups, sulfonyloxy groups, amido groups, alkoxycarbonyl groups, aryloxycarbonyl groups, aliphatic or aromatic thio groups, imido groups, N-heterocyclic groups, aromatic azo groups, etc. These leaving groups may contain photographically useful groups. Dimers or larger oligomers may be formed via R¹², Ar or Z C in the general formula (M-I) Typical examples of pyrazolone based magenta couplers which can be represented by the general formula (M-I) are indicated below, but they are not limited to these examples. The magenta dye-forming coupler represented by the formula (I), water insoluble but organic solvent soluble polymer, and aliphatic ester solvent represented by the formula (II) or (III) may be incorporated in the same layer or in the different layers. The magenta dye-forming coupler is preferably incorporated in a green sensitive layer, the polymer is preferably incorporated in a red sensitive layer and/or blue sensitive layer, and the solvent of the formula (II) or (III) is preferably incorporated in a red sensitive layer and/or blue sensitive layer, or light-insensitive hydrophilic colloid layer. The aliphatic ester solvent of formula (II) or (III) is effective in preventing stain when it is incorporated in the light-insensitive hydrophilic colloid layer, especially using together with magenta dye-forming coupler of formula (I). The ester based solvents which can be represented by the general formulae (II) and (III) of this invention may be used as high boiling point coupler solvents, and they can be used in all the layers or they may be used in only one layer for providing the effect of this invention, and especially the anti-staining effect of the invention. Their effect is most pronounced when they are used, preferably, in the layers other than the green sensitive layer. The amount of the solvent used varies over a wide range, depending on the type and amount of polymer and coupler, but a ratio by weight of high boiling point coupler solvent/coupler of from 0.05 to 20 is preferred, and a ratio of from 0.1 to 10 is most desirable, while the ratio of high boiling point solvent/polymer is preferably from 0.02 to 40, and most desirably from 0.05 to 20. Furthermore, the ester based organic solvents of this invention can be used individually or as complex mixtures. Furthermore, any high boiling point organic solvents, such as phosphate ester based solvents, phthalate ester based solvents, monoester based solvents, ether based solvents, alcohol based solvents or phenol based solvents, can be used in the layers in which ester based solvents of this invention are not used. Moreover, the ester based solvents of this invention can be used in admixture with these solvents. Actual examples of the above mentioned high boiling point solvents other than the ester based solvents of this invention which can be used are indicated below, but these solvents are not limited to the examples. (S-1) O=P(OC₄H₃-n)₂ (S-2) (S-3) O=P(OC₆H₁₃- n )₂ (S-4) (S-5) (S-6) O=P(OC₃H₁₇- n )₃ (S-7) (S-8) (S-9) (S-10) O=P(OC₉H₁₉- n )₃ (S-11) (S-12) O=P(OC₂₀H₂₁-n)₃ (S-13) (S-14) (S-15) (S-16) (S-17) (S-18) (S-19) (S-20) (S-21) (S-22) (S-23) (S-24) (S-25) (S-26) (S-27) (S-28) (S-29) (S-30) (S-31) (S-32) (S-33) (S-34) (S-35) (S-36) (S-37) (S-38) (S-39) (S-40) (S-41) (S-42) (S-43) (S-44) (S-45) (S-46) (S-47) (S-48) (S-49) C₁₂H₂₅OH (S-50) C₁₅H₃₃OH (S-51) C₁₈H₃₇OH (S-52) C₁₀H₂₁O(CH₂)₅O(CH₂)₂OH (S-53) (S-54) (S-55) (S-56) (S-57) (S-58) (S-59) The water insoluble, organic solvent soluble polymer of this invention is normally dissolved in an appropriate organic auxiliary solvent for use, but the proportion with respect to the auxiliary solvent differs according to the type of polymer which is being used, and it varies over a wide range according to the solubility in the auxiliary solvent and the degree of polymerization, or the solubility of the coupler, etc. Normally, the amount of auxiliary solvent required to provide a sufficiently low viscosity such that the solution obtained by dissolving at least the coupler, the high boiling point coupler solvent and the polymer in the auxiliary solvent can be dispersed easily in water or in an aqueous hydrophilic colloid solution is used. The solution viscosity rises as the degree of polymerization of the polymer is increased and so it is difficult to formulate a general rule irrespective of the type of polymer for the proportion with respect to the auxiliary solvent of the polymer, but normally proportions (by weight) within the range from about 1:1 to 1:50 are preferred. The proportion with respect to the coupler of. the polymer of this invention is preferably from 1:20 to 20:1, and most desirably from 1:10 to 10:1. The polymers of this invention improve image stability, the effect of the invention, in whichever layer they are used, but the resulting effect is especially pronounced when they are used in the red sensitive layer, and they provide a marked improvement in the extent dark heat fading and light fading of the cyan image which, as described in the background of the invention, was a problem in the past. There is also some improvement in respect of the light fading of the yellow image when the polymers are used in the blue sensitive layer. Finally, there is an improvement overall in the stability on storage of the cyan, magenta and yellow images and it is possible to obtain photographs with which, even on long term storage, the cyan, magenta, yellow color balance is good and with which there is little staining. Cyan couplers and yellow couplers which can be used in the invention are described below.

Alternatively, water or an aqueous hydrophilic colloid solution such as a gelatin solution may be added to an auxiliary organic solvent which contains a dispersion promotor such as a surfactant, the polymer of this invention, the high boiling point coupler solvent and the coupler, and an oil in water dispersion may be formed by phase reversal. The auxiliary organic solvent is then removed by volatalization, noodle washing or ultrafiltration, etc. from the dispersion which has been prepared in this way, after which the dispersion may be mixed with the photographic emulsion. The term "auxiliary organic solvent" as used herein signifies an organic solvent which is useful at the time of emulsification and dispersion, being a low boiling point organic solvent which is ultimately eliminated from the photosensitive material in practice during the course of drying at the time of coating or in the ways indicated above, or a solvent which has a certain degree of solubility in water and which can be removed by washing with water. The auxiliary solvent may be a lower alcohol acetate such as ethyl acetate or butyl acetate, ethyl propionate, sec-butyl alcohol, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, β-ethoxyethyl acetate, methylcellosolve acetate, methylcarbitol acetate, methylcarbitol propionate, cyclohexanone, etc. Moreover, some organic solvent which is completely miscible with water, for example, methyl alcohol, ethyl alcohol, acetone, tetrahydrofuran, etc., can be used conjointly, as desired. Combinations of two or more of those organic solvents can be used. The use of anionic surfactants such as alkylbenzene sulfonic acids and alkylnaphthalene sulfonic acids and/or non-ionic surfactants such as sorbitane sesquioleic acid esters and sorbitane monolauric acid esters etc. as the above mentioned surfactants is preferred. The average particle size of the fine lipophilic particles obtained in this way is preferably within the range from 0.04 µm to 2 µm and, most desirably, the average particle size is within the range from 0.06 µm to 0.4 µm. The particle diameter of the fine lipophilic particles can be measured with a measuring device such as the "Nanosizer" made by the British Coal Tar Co. The use of silver chlorobromides of which the silver chloride content is at least 90 mol% (and preferably at least 98 mol%) is required. The silver chlorobromide may contain a little silver iodide, but the absence of silver iodide is preferred. The average grain size (the grain diameter in the case of spherical grains or grains which approach a spherical form or the length of an edge in the case of cubic grains is taken for the grain size, the average being expressed on the basis of the projected areas) of the silver halide grains in the photographic emulsion is of no particular importance, but it is preferably not more than 2 µm and, most desirably, it is within the range from 0.2 to 1.5 µm. The silver halide grains in the photographic emulsion layer may have a regular crystalline form, such as a cubic, tetradecahedral or octahedral form, (being a regular crystalline emulsion), or they may have an irregular crystalline form, such as a spherical or plate like form, or they may have a composite form consisting of these crystalline forms. They may also take the form of mixtures of grains of various crystalline forms. Of these, the use of the aforementioned regular emulsions is preferred. Emulsions in which tabular silver halide grains of which the diameter is at least 5 times the thickness account for at least 50 mol% of the total projected area can also be used. The silver halide emulsion which is included in at least one photosensitive layer is preferably a mono-disperse emulsion of which the coefficient of variation (the value obtained by dividing the statistical standard deviation by the average grain size expressed as a percentage) is not more than 15%, and most desirably not more than 10%. Mono-disperse emulsions of this type may be independent emulsions which have a coefficient of variation as mentioned above, but they may be emulsions in which two or more mono-disperse emulsions which have been prepared separately and of which the average grain size in each case has a coefficient of variation of not more than 15%, and preferably not more than 10%, are mixed together. The difference in grain size and the mixing ratio is not limited, but the use of emulsions of which the average grain size difference is within the range from at least 0.2 µm but not more than 1.0 µm is preferred. The definition of the variation coefficient referred to above, and methods for its measurement, have been described by T.H. James on page 39 of "The Theory of the Photographic Process", Third Edition, published by the Macmillan Co. (1966). The silver halide grains may have different phases for the internal part and the surface layer. Furthermore, they may be of the type with which the latent image is formed principally at the surface of the grains or of the type with which the latent image is formed principally within the grains. Grains of the latter type are especially useful for direct positive emulsions. Cadmium salts, zinc salts, thallium salts, lead salts, iridium salts or complex salts thereof, rhodium salts or complex salts thereof, iron salts or complex salts thereof, etc. may also be present during the formation or physical ripening process of the silver halide grains. Silver halide emulsions are normally subjected to chemical sensitization. The usual methods of chemical sensitization can be used, and details have been disclosed from line 18 of the lower left hand column of page 12 to line 16 on the lower right hand column on page 12 of the specification of JP-A-62-215272. Furthermore, the silver halide emulsions are normally subjected to spectral sensitization. The usual methine dyes can be used for the spectral sensitization, and details have been disclosed between line 3 from the bottom of the upper right hand column on page 22 and page 38 of the specification of JP-A-62-215272, and on separate page (B) of the Procedural Amendment dated 16th March 1987 attached thereto. Various compounds can be included in the photographic emulsions which are used in the invention with a view to preventing the occurrence of fogging during the manufacture, storage or photographic processing of the photosensitive material, or with a view to stabilizing photographic performance. Thus many compounds which are known as anti-fogging agents or stabilizers, such as azoles, for example, benzothiazolium salts, nitroimidazoles, nitrobenzimidazoles, chlorobenzimidazoles, bromobenzimidazoles, mercaptothiazoles, mercaptobenzothiazoles, mercaptobenzimidazoles, mercaptothiadiazoles, aminotriazoles, benzotriazoles, nitrobenzotriazoles, mercaptotetrazoles (especially 1-phenyl-5-mercaptotetrazole, etc.), mercaptopyrimidines; mercaptotriazines, etc.; thioketo compounds such as, for example, oxazolinethione; azaindenes, for example, triazaindenes, tetra-azaindenes (especially 4-hydroxy substituted (1,3,3a,7)tetra-azaindene), penta-azaindenes, etc.; benzenethiosulfonic acid, benzenesulfinic acid, benzenesulfonic acid amide, etc., can be added for this purpose. The photosensitive materials of this invention may contain hydroquinone derivatives, aminophenol derivatives, amines, gallic acid derivatives, catechol derivatives, ascorbic acid derivatives, colorless couplers, sulfonamidophenol derivatives, etc. as anti-color fogging agents or anti-color mixing agents. Various anti-color fading agents can also be used in the photosensitive materials of this invention. That is to say, typical examples of organic anti-color fading agents which can be used for cyan, magenta and/or yellow images include hydroquinones, 6-hydroxychromans, 5-hydroxycoumarans, spirochromans, p-alkoxyphenols, hindered phenols centered on the bisphenols, gallic acid derivatives, methylenedioxybenzenes, aminophenols, and hindered amines, and ether and ester derivatives in which the phenolic hydroxyl groups of these compounds have been silylated or alkylated. Furthermore, metal complexes typified by the (bis salicylaldoxymato)nickel complex and the (bis-N,N-dialkyldithiocarbamato)nickel complex can be used for this purpose. Actual examples of organic anti-color fading agents have been disclosed in the specifications of the following patents: Hydroquinones have been disclosed in U.S. Patents 2,360,290, 2,415,613, 2,700,453, 2,701,197, 2,725,659, 2,732,300, 2,735,765, 3,952,944 and 4,430,425, in British Patent No. 1,363,921, and in U.S. Patents 2,710,501 and 2,516,025, etc., 6-hydroxychromans, 5-hydroxycoumarans and spirochromans have been disclosed in U.S. Patents 3,432,300, 3,573,050, 3,574,627, 3,695,909 and 3,764,337, and in JP-A-52-152225, etc., spiroindanes have been disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,360,589, p-alkoxyphenols have been disclosed in U.S. Patent 2,735,765, in British Patent No. 2,066,975, in JP-A-59-10539, and in JP-B-57-19764, etc., hindered phenols have been disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,700,455, in JP-A-52-72225, in U.S. Patent 4,225,235, and in JP-B-52-6623, etc., gallic acid derivatives, methylenedioxybenzenes and aminophenols have been disclosed in U.S. Patents 3,457,079 and 4,332,556, and in JP-B-56-21144, respectively, hindered amines have been disclosed in U.S. Patents 3,336,351 and 4,265,593, in British Patent Nos. 1,326,559, 1,354,315 and 1,410,546, in JP-B-51-1420 and in JP-A-58-114036, JP-A-59-53846 and JP-A-59-78344, etc., ether and ester derivatives of phenolic hydroxyl groups have been disclosed in U.S. Patents 4,155,765, 4,174,220, 4,254,216 and 4,264,720, in JP-A-54-145530, JP-A-55-6321, JP-A-58-105147 and JP-A-59-10539, in JP-B-57-37856, in U.S. Patent 4,279,990, and in JP-B-53-3263, etc., and metal complexes have been disclosed in U.S. Patents 4,050,935 and 4,241,155, and in British Patent No. 2,027,731(A), etc. These compounds can be used to achieve the intended purpose by coemulsification with the couplers and addition to the photosensitive layer, normally at a rate of from 5 to 100 wt% with respect to the corresponding coupler. The introduction of ultraviolet absorbers into layers on either side adjacent to the cyan color forming layer is more effective for preventing deterioration of the cyan dye image by heat and, more especially, by light. The spiroindanes and the hindered amines are especially effective among the above mentioned anti-color fading agents. Furthermore, the use of compounds of the type indicated below, together with the aforementioned couplers, and especially together with the pyrazoloazole couplers, is desirable in this invention. Thus, the concurrent or independent use of a compound (A) which bonds chemically with aromatic amine based developing agents which are left behind after color development processing and which forms a compound which is chemically inert and which is essentially colorless, and/or a compound (B) which bonds chemically with the oxidized form of aromatic amine based color developing agents which are left behind after the color development process and which forms a compound which is chemically inert and which is essentially colorless, is desirable for preventing the occurrence of staining and other side effects due to colored dye formation resulting from reaction between the coupler and the color developing agent or the oxidized form thereof which is left behind in the film during the storage of the material after processing for example. The preferred compounds (A) are those which react with p-anisidine in such a way that the second order reaction rate constant k₂ (in trioctyl phosphate at 80°C) is within the range from 1.0 to 1×10⁻⁵ ℓ/mol sec. The second order reaction rate constant k₂ is obtained by a method disclosed in JP-A-63-158545. When the value of k₂ is above this range the compound itself is unstable and it will react with gelatin or water and is inevitably degraded. On the other hand, if the value of k₂ is below this range the reaction with the residual aromatic amine based developing agent is slow and it is impossible to prevent the side effects of the residual aromatic amine developing agent from occurring, which is to say that it is impossible to achieve the aim of the invention. The compounds which can be represented by the general formula (AI) and (AII) which are indicated below are the preferred compounds (A) of this type. General Formula (AI) R₂₂-(A) n -X In these formulae, R₂₂ and R₂₃ each represent an aliphatic group, an aromatic group or a heterocyclic group. Moreover, n represents a value of 1 or 0. A represents a group forming a chemical bond by reacting with an aromatic amino developing agent; X represents a group being released by reacting with an aromatic amino developing agent; B represents a hydrogen atom, aliphatic group, aromatic group, heterocyclic group, acyl group or a sulfonyl group, and Y represents a group accelerating the addition of an aromatic amino developing agent to the compound of formula (A II ). Said R²² and X, or said Y and R²³ or B may be conbined with each other to form a cyclic structure. In the system of causing chemical bonding with a residual aromatic amino developing agent, a typical system is a substitution reaction and an addition reaction. Specific examples of the preferred compounds shown by aforesaid formulae (A I ) and (A II ) are decribed in JP-A-63-158545 and 62 283338, Japanese Patent Application No. 62-158342, and Ep-A-277,589. On the other hand, the compound (B) forming a chemically inactive and colorless compound by causing chemical bonding with the oxidation product of an aromatic amino developing agent remaining after color development is more preferably shown by following formula (B I ); R - Z (B I ) wherein R represents an alipahtic group, an aromatic group or a heterocyclic group and Z represents a nucleophilic group or a group releasing a nucleophilic group by being decomposed in the photographic material. In the compound shown by formula (B I ), Z is preferably a group having the Pearson's nucleophilic nCH₃I value (R.G. Pearson, et al., Journal of Americal Chemical Society , 90 , 319 (1968)) of at least 5 or a group induced from such a group. Practical examples of the preferred compounds shown by formula (B I ) are described in EP-A 255,722, and 277,589, JP-A-62-143048 and 62-229145, Japanese patent Application Nos. 63-136724, 62-214681, and 62-158342. Also, the details of the combination of the aforesaid compound (A) and compound (B) are described in EP-A-277,589. Actual examples of compounds which can be represented by the general formulae (A I ) and (A II ) have been disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Nos. 158,342/87, 158,643/87, 212,258/87, 214,681/87, 228,034/87 and 279,843/87. Actual examples of the aforementioned anti-staining agents and other image stabilizers are indicated below. Ultraviolet absorbers can be included in the hydrophilic colloid layers of the photosensitive materials of this invention. For example, use can be made of the benzotriazole compounds substituted with aryl groups (for example, those disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,533,794), 4-thiazolidone compounds (for example, those disclosed in U.S. Patents 3,314,794 and 3,352,681), benzophenone compounds (for example, those disclosed in JP-A-46-2784), cinnamic acid ester compounds (for example, those disclosed in U.S. Patents 3,705,805 and 3,707,375), butadiene compounds (for example, those disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,045,229), or benzo-oxidol compounds (for example, those disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,700,455). Ultraviolet absorbing couplers (for example, the α-naphthol based cyan dye forming couplers) or ultraviolet absorbing polymers, etc. can also be used for this purpose. These ultraviolet absorbers may be mordanted into a specified layer. Water soluble dyes can be included in the hydrophilic colloid layers of the photosensitive materials of this invention as filter dyes or for anti-irradiation and various other purposes. Dyes of this type include oxonol dyes, hemi-oxonol dyes, styryl dyes, merocyanine dyes, cyanine dyes and azo dyes. Of these dyes, the oxonol dyes, hemi-oxonol dyes and merocyanine dyes are useful. Details of useful oxonol dyes have been described from the upper right column on page 158 to page 163 of the specification of JP-A-62-215272. The use of gelatin is convenient as the binding agent or protective colloid in the emulsion layers of photosensitive materials of this invention, but other hydrophilic colloids can be used either independently or in conjunction with gelatin. The gelatin used in the invention may be a lime treated gelatin, or a gelatin which has been treated with acid can be used. Details of the manufacture of gelatin have been described by Arthur Wiese in "The Macromolecular Chemistry of Gelatin" (published by Academic Press, 1964). The cellulose nitrate films, cellulose acetate films, cellulose acetate butyrate films, cellulose acetate propionate films, polystyrene films, polyethylene-terephthalate films, polycarbonate films, laminates of these films with other materials, thin glass films, paper, etc. normally used in photographic materials can be used for the support which is used in this invention. Supports such as papers which have been coated or laminated with baryta or an α-olefin polymer, especially a polymer made from an α-olefin which has from 2 to 10 carbon atoms, for example, polyethylene, polypropylene, ethylene/butene copolymer etc., vinyl chloride resins which contain reflecting substances such as TiO₂, and plastic films of which the adhesion with other polymeric materials has been improved by surface roughening as described in JP-B-47-19068 provide good results. Furthermore, ultraviolet curable resins can be used for this purpose. A transparent support or a non-transparent support can be selected according to the intended purpose of the photosensitive material. Furthermore, the supports can be rendered colored and transparent by the addition of dyes or pigments. Apart from the original non-transparent supports such as paper, non-transparent supports also include those made by adding dyes or organic pigments, such as titanium oxide, to a transparent film, and plastic films which have been surface treated using methods such as those described in JP-B-47-19068, etc. An underlayer is normally established on the support. Preliminary surface treatments such as corona discharge treatments, ultraviolet irradiation and flame treatments, etc. can also be used with these supports in order to improve their adhesion properties. The color photosensitive materials which can be used for making color photographs of this invention may be any of the usual types of color photographic materials, for example, color negative films, color papers, reversal color papers, color reversal films etc, and they are especially suitable for color photosensitive materials intended for printing purposes. Black and white development baths and/or color development baths can be used for the development processing of the photosensitive materials of this invention. A color development bath preferably consists of an aqueous alkaline solution which contains a primary aromatic amine based color developing agents, as the principal component. Aminophenol based compounds are also useful as color developing agents, but the use of p-phenylenediamine based compounds is preferred. Typical examples of these compounds include 3-methyl-4-amino-N,N-diethylaniline, 3-methyl-4-amino-N-ethyl-N-β-hydroxyethylaniline, 3-methyl-4-amino-N ethyl-N-β-methanesulfonamidoethylaniline, 3-methyl-4-amino-N-ethyl-N-β-methoxyethylaniline and the sulfate, hydro chloride and p-toluenesulfonate salts of these compounds. Two or more of these compounds can be used conjointly, depending on the intended purpose. The color development baths generally contain pH buffers such as alkali metal carbonates, borates or phosphates, and development inhibitors or anti-fogging agents such as bromides, iodides, benzimidazoles, benzothiazoles or mercapto compounds. They may also contain, as required, various preservatives such as hydroxylamine, diethylhydroxylamine, sulfites, hydrazines, phenylsemicarbazides, triethanolamine, catechol sulfonic acids, triethylenediamine(1,4-diazabicyclo[2,2,2]octane), etc., organic solvents such as ethyleneglycol and diethyleneglycol, development accelerators such as benzyl alcohol, poly(ethyleneglycol), quaternary ammonium salts and amines, dye forming couplers, competitive couplers, fogging agents such as sodium borohydride, auxiliary developing agents such as 1-phenyl-3-pyrazolidone, viscosity imparting agents, and various chelating agents as typified by the aminopolycarboxylic acids, aminopolyphosphonic acids, alkylphosphonic acids and phosphonocarboxylic acids, typical examples of which include ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid, nitrilo triacetic acid, diethylentriamine penta-acetic acid, cyclohexanediamine tetra-acetic acid, hydroxyethylimino diacetic acid, 1-hydroxyethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid, nitrilo-N,N,N-trimethylenephosphonic acid, ethylenediamine-N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylenephosphonic acid, ethylenediamine di(o-hydroxyphenylacetic acid), and salts of these compounds. Color development is carried out after a normal black and white development in the case of reversal processing. The known black and white developing agents, for example, dihydroxybenzenes such as hydroquinone, etc., 3-pyrazolidones such as 1-phenyl-3-pyrazolidone, etc., and aminophenols such as N-methyl-p-aminophenol, etc., can be used individually or in combinations for the black and white development bath. The pH of these color development and black and white development baths is generally within the range from 9 to 12. Furthermore, the replenishment rate of these development baths depends on the color photographic material which is being processed, but it is generally not more than 3 liters per square meter of photosensitive material and it is possible, by reducing the bromide ion concentration in the replenisher, to use a replenishment rate of not more than 500 ml per square meter of photosensitive material. Prevention of the loss of liquid by evaporation, and aerial oxidation, by minimizing the contact area with the air in the processing tank is desirable in cases where the replenishment rate is low. Furthermore, the replenishment rate can be reduced by using a means of suppressing the accumulation of bromide ion in the developer. The photographic emulsion layers are subjected to a normal bleaching process after color development. The bleaching process may be carried out at the same time as the fixing process (in a bleach-fix process) or it may be carried out as a separate process. Moreover, a bleach-fix process can be carried out after a bleaching process in order to speed-up processing. Moreover, processing can be carried out in two connected bleach-fix baths, a fixing process can be carried out before carrying out a bleach-fix process, or a bleaching process can be carried out after a bleach-fix process, according to the intended purpose of the processing. Compounds of a poly-valent metal such as iron(III), cobalt(III), chromium(VI), copper(II), etc., peracids, quinones, nitro compounds, etc. can be used as bleaching agents. Typical bleaching agents include ferricyanides; dichromates; organic complex salts of iron(III) or cobalt(III), for example, complex salts with aminopolycarboxylic acids such as ethylenediamine tetra-acetic acid, diethylenetriamine penta-acetic acid, cyclohexanediamine tetra-acetic acid, methylimino diacetic acid, 1,3-diaminopropane tetra-acetic acid, glycol ether diamine tetra-acetic acid, etc., or citric acid, tartaric acid, malic acid, etc.; persulfates; bromates; permanaganates; and nitrobenzenes, etc. Of these materials the use of the aminopolycarboxylic acid iron(III) complex salts, principally ethylenediamine tetra-acetic acid iron(III) complex salts, and persulfates, is preferred from the points of view of both rapid processing and the prevention of environmental pollution. Moreover, the amino polycarboxylic acid iron(III) complex salts are especially useful in both bleach baths and bleach-fix baths. The pH of a bleach or bleach-fix bath in which aminopolycarboxylic acid iron(III) complex salts are being used is normally from 5.5 to 8, but processing can be carried. out at lower pH values in order to speed-up processing. Bleach accelerators can be used, as required, in the bleach baths, bleach-fix baths, or bleach or bleach-fix pre-baths. Actual examples of useful bleach accelerators have been disclosed in the following specifications: Thus there are the compounds which have a mercapto group or a disulfide group disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,893,858, West German Patent Nos. 1,290,812 and 2,059,988, JP-A-53-32736, JP-A-53-57831, JP-A-53-37418, JP-A-53-72623, JP-A-53-95630, JP-A-53-95631, JP-A-53-104232, JP-A-53-124424, JP-A-53-141623 and JP-A-53-28426, and in Research Disclosure No. 17,129 (July 1978), etc.; the thiazolidine derivatives disclosed in JP-A-50-140129; the thiourea derivatives disclosed in JP-B-45-8506, in JP-A-52-20832 and JP-A-53-32735, and in U.S. Patent 3,706,561; the iodides disclosed in West German Patent No. 1,127,715 and in JP-A-58-16235; the polyoxyethylene compounds disclosed in West German Patent Nos. 966,410 and 2,748,430; the polyamine compounds disclosed in JP-B-45-8836; the other compounds disclosed in JP-A-49-42434, JP-A-49-59644, JP-A-53-94927, JP-A 54-35727, JP-A-55-26506 and JP-A-58-163940; and bromide ions, etc. Among these compounds, those which have a mercapto group or a disulfide group are preferred in view of their large accelerating effect, and the use of the compounds disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,893,858, in West German Patent No. 1,290,812, and in JP-A-53-95630 is especially desirable. Moreover, the use of the compounds disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,552,834 is also desirable. These bleach accelerators may be added to the sensitive material, and they are especially effective when bleach-fixing camera color photosensitive materials. Thiosulfates, thiocyanates, thioether based compounds, thioureas and large quantities of iodides, etc. can be used as fixing agents, but thiosulfates are generally used for this purpose, and ammonium thiosulfate in particular can be used in the widest range of applications. Sulfites or bisulfites, or carbonyl-bisulfite addition compounds, are preferred as preservatives for bleach-fix baths. The silver halide color photographic materials of this invention are generally subjected to a water washing and/or stabilizing process after the desilvering process. The quantity of water used in the water washing process can be established within a wide range according to the nature of the photosensitive material (for example, the materials, such as the couplers, which are being used), the wash water temperature, the number of washing tanks (the number of washing stages), the replenishment system, i.e. whether a counter-flow or a sequential-flow system is used, and various other conditions. The relationship between the quantity of water used and the number of water washing tanks in a multi-stage counter-flow system can be obtained using the method outlined on pages 248-253 of Journal of the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers, Volume 64 (May 1955). The amount of wash water can be greatly reduced by using the multi-stage counter-flow system noted in the aforementioned literature, but bacteria proliferate due to the increased residence time of the water in the tanks and problems arise as a result of the sediments which are formed becoming attached to the photosensitive material. The method in which the calcium ion and manganese ion concentrations are reduced as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application No. 61-131632 can be used very effectively to overcome problems of this sort in the processing of color photosensitive materials of this invention. Furthermore, the iso-thiazolone compounds and thiabendazoles disclosed in JP-A 57 8542 and the chlorine based disinfectants such as chlorinated sodium isocyanurate, and benzotriazoles, etc., and the disinfectants disclosed in "Chemistry of Biocides and Fungicides" by Horiguchi, "Reduction of Microorganisms, Biocidal and Fungicidal Techniques", published by the Health and Hygiene Technical Society and in "A Dictionary of Biocides and Fungicides", published by the Japanese Biocide and Fungicide Society, can be used for this purpose. The pH value of the wash water used when processing photosensitive materials of invention is within the range from 4 to 9, and preferably within the range from 5 to 8. The wash water temperature and the washing time can be set variously according to the nature of the photosensitive material and the application, etc. but, in general, washing conditions of from 20 seconds to 10 minutes at a temperature of from 15 to 45°C, and preferably of from 30 seconds to 5 minutes at a temperature of from 25 to 40°C, are selected. Moreover, the photosensitive materials of this invention can be processed directly in a stabilizing bath instead of being subjected to a water washing process as described above. The known methods disclosed in JP-A-57-8543, JP-A-58-14834 and JP-A-60-220345 can all be used for this purpose. Furthermore, there are cases in which a stabilizing process is carried out following the aforementioned water washing process, and the stabilizing baths which contain formalin and surfactant which are used as a final bath for camera color photosensitive materials are an example of such a process. Various chelating agents, biocides, etc. can be added to these stabilizing baths. The overflow which accompanies replenishment of the abovementioned wash water and/or stabilizer can be re-used in other processes such as the desilvering process, etc. A color developing agent may also be incorporated into the silver halide color photosensitive materials of this invention in order to simplify and speed-up processing. The incorporation of various color developing agent precursors is preferred. For example, the indoaniline based compounds disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,342,597, the Schiff's base type compounds disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,342,599 and in Research Disclosure Nos. 14,850 and 15,159, the aldol compounds disclosed in Research Disclosure No. 13,924, the metal salt complexes disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,719,492, and the urethane based compounds disclosed in JP-A-53-135628 can be used for this purpose. Various 1-phenyl-3-pyrazolidones can be incorporated, as required, into the silver halide color photosensitive materials of this invention with a view to accelerating color development. Typical compounds of this type have been disclosed in JP-A-56-64339, JP-A-57-144547, JP-A-58-115438, etc. The various processing baths, are used at a temperature of from 10 to 50°C in this invention. The standard temperature is normally from 33 to 38°C, but processing is accelerated and the processing time is shortened at higher temperatures and, conversely, increased picture quality and improved stability of the processing baths can be achieved at lower temperature. Furthermore, processes using hydrogen peroxide intensification or cobalt intensification as disclosed in West German Patent No. 2,226,770 or U.S. Patent 3,674,499 can be carried out in order to economize on silver in the photosensitive material. Unless otherwise indicated, all parts, proportions, and percentages are by weight. EXAMPLE 1 The multi-layer silver halide photosensitive material 101 of which the layer structure is indicated below was prepared on a paper support which had been laminated on both sides with polyethylene. Moreover, ethyl acetate was used as an auxiliary solvent together with the high boiling point solvent in the coupler solvents mentioned below. Layer Structure The composition of each layer is indicated below. The numerical values indicate coated weights (in grams per square meter). In the case of the silver halide emulsions the weight coated is indicated after calculation as silver. Support Polyethylene laminated paper (White pigment (TiO₂) and ultramarine dye were included in the polyethylene on the first layer side). First Layer (Blue Sensitive Layer) Second Layer (Anti-color Mixing Layer) Third Layer (Green Sensitive Layer) Fourth Layer (Ultraviolet Absorbing Layer) Fifth Layer (Red Sensitive Layer) Sixth Layer (Ultraviolet Absorbing Layer) Seventh Layer (Protective Layer) Furthermore, Cpd-11 and Cpd-12 were used at this time as anti-irradiation compounds. Moreover, "Alcanol XC" (made by DuPont), sodium alkylbenzenesulfonate, succinic acid ester and "Magafao F-120" (made by Dainippon Ink) were used as emulsification and dispersion, and coating, promotors in each layer. Cpd-13 and Cpd-14 were used as silver halide stabilizers. Furthermore, 1-oxy-3,5-dichloro-s-triazine, sodium salt, was used as a gelatin hardening agent in each layer, and Cpd-2 was used as a viscosity increasing agent. Details of the emulsions used are indicated below. The structural formulae corresponding to the codes used for the above mentioned additives other than the compounds which have been described earlier as illustrative examples are indicated below. Samples 102 to 113 were prepared in the same way as the above mentioned sample 101 except that the magenta coupler and the high boiling point solvent in each layer in the above mentioned photosensitive material Sample 101 were changed, and polymers of this invention were added, as indicated in Table 1 below. The above mentioned photosensitive materials were given an imagewise exposure, after which they were processed continuously in accordance with the processing operation indicated below, using a Fujicolor Paper Processor PP600, until the system had been replenished to the extent of twice the volume of the color development tank, and continuous processing (running tests) were carried out in this way. (Three tank counter-flow system from rinse (3) to rinse (1)). The composition of each processing bath was as indicated below. Rinse Bath Ion exchanged water (Calcium and magnesium both not more than 3 ppm) The improvements in heat fastness and light fastness of the processed Samples and in respect of magenta staining of the white background (M-staining) on storage after processing were evaluated in the ways indicated below. Thus, the fractional reduction in density from an initial density of 1.5 on storing the samples for 7 days in the dark at 100°C was used to represent heat fading and the fractional reduction in density from an initial value of 1.5 on storing for 7 days in a xenon fadometer (80,000 lux) was used to represent light fading. M-staining was evaluated in terms of the difference in magenta density of the white background (unexposed part) immediately after processing and after storing the samples for 7 days at 100°C. (Table 2) It is clear from Table 2 that, in comparison to the comparative examples outside the scope of this invention, the invention provided overall excellent results in respect of the storage properties of the image form both the point of view of the colored image fastness and from the point of view of staining. More precisely, the colored image fastness showed an excellent fading balance between the three colors yellow, magenta and cyan, a point which is great practical importance, and with little increase in staining. EXAMPLE 2 Photosensitive materials 201 to 213 were prepared in the same way as in Example 1 except that the silver halide emulsions used in Example 1 were changed as indicated below. Thus EM-1 and EM-2 were changed to EM-7, EM-3 and EM-4 were changed to EM 8, and EM-5 and EM-6 were changed to EM-9. The emulsions used were as follows: The above mentioned photosensitive materials were exposed through an optical wedge, after which they were processed in the way indicated below. (Four tank counter-flow system from stabilizer (4) to stabilizer (1)) The composition of each processing bath was as indicated below. Color Development Bath Bleach-fix Bath Stabilizer Bath The coating emulsions for each layer were prepared as is disclosed in a case of, for example, material 102. The coating emulsion for red sensitive layer was prepared by dissolving the cyan couplers (C-4) and (C-5), and (II-5) and (P-57) together with ethylacetate, dispersing the solution to aqueous gelatin solution to form a dispersion, and then adding the emulsion thus obtained to a mixture of emulsion EM5 and EM6 to form a coating emulsion for red sensitive layer. The coating emulsion for blue sensitive layer was prepared by dissolving the yellow coupler (Y-2), and (II-8) and (P-57) together with ethylacetate and processing in the same way as in the coating emulsion of red sensitive layer. The coating emulsion for green sensitive layer was prepared by dissolving the magenta coupler (I-1) into the solvents thereof (S-16) and (S-8) and processing in the same way as in the coating emulsion of red sensitive layer. The processed Samples so obtained were evaluated in the same way as in Example 1 and the results obtained were more or less the same as those shown in Table 2.
