A compound of silver and bromine. When an aqueous solution of alkali bromide is added to an aqueous solution of silver nitrate, it precipitates. It is a pale yellow solid. It is highly photosensitive, and when exposed to light, it releases silver and turns black. It dissolves in aqueous solutions of alkali cyanide and sodium thiosulfate, forming a complex salt. It is slightly soluble in aqueous ammonia, and insoluble in ethanol (ethyl alcohol). It dissolves in hot concentrated nitric acid, but the solution gives the double salt AgNO 3 · AgBr (melting point 182 ° C). It has the highest photosensitivity among silver halides, and forms a latent image when exposed to light, electron beams, and various types of radiation, and is developed with a developer. For this reason, it is widely used as the photosensitive component of photographic materials, and is contained in photographic films, dry plates, and photographic paper. However, since the long wavelength end of visible light to which silver bromide is sensitive is around 500 nanometers, it is not sensitive to yellow or red light. For this reason, sensitizing dyes are added to normal photosensitive materials.

銀と臭素の化合物。硝酸銀水溶液に臭化アルカリ水溶液を加えると沈殿する。淡黄色固体。強い感光性があり、光に当たると銀を遊離して黒色となる。シアン化アルカリ、チオ硫酸ナトリウム水溶液には錯塩をつくって溶ける。アンモニア水にはわずかに溶け、エタノール(エチルアルコール)には不溶。熱濃硝酸には溶けるが、その溶液からは、複塩AgNO3・AgBr(融点182℃)が得られる。ハロゲン化銀中、感光性は最大で、光、電子線、各種放射線によって潜像を形成し、現像液によって現像される。このため写真感光材料の感光主体として広く用いられ、写真フィルム、乾板、印画紙中に含まれている。ただし臭化銀の感光する可視光の長波長端は500ナノメートル付近にあるので、黄色光や赤色光には感光しない。そのため通常の感光材料では増感色素を加えている。 [中原勝儼] [補完資料] |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
