Claims
- 1. Method of producing photographic images which comprises developing an exposed photographic element comprising a support and at least one photographic silver halide emulsion, at a temperature above 30.degree. C., wherein the said development is carried out in the presence of at least one non-quaternary, non-heterocyclic nitrobenzene compound corresponding to the formula: ##STR3## wherein: (R).sub.n stands for one or more substituents selected from hydrogen, a halogen atom, an alkyl group, an alkenyl group, an alkynyl group, an alkoxy group, an alkylmercapto group, an amino group, an aryl group, hydroxy, nitro, cyano, sulpho or carboxy in acid or salt form, alkoxycarbonyl and an acyl group derived from a carboxylic or sulphonic acid.
- 2. Method according to claim 1 wherein the said nitrobenzene compound is present in the silver halide emulsion.
- 3. Method according to claim 2 wherein the said nitrobenzene compound is present in an amount comprised between 1 mg and 1000 mg per mole of silver halide.
- 4. Method according to claim 1 wherein the nitrobenzene compound is m- or p-dinitrobenzene, 2,4-dinitrobenzene sulphonic acid in acid or salt form, 4-nitrophthalic acid or 4,4'-dinitro-biphenyl.
- 5. Method according to claim 1 wherein the emulsion comprises an azaindene emulsion stabilizer.
- 6. Method according to claim 5 wherein said azaindene emulsion stabilizer is 5-methyl-7-hydroxy-s-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine.
