Abstract
The invention relates to a method for preparing photographic silver halide tabular grains emulsions. The method of the invention comprises a first single nucleation step wherein stable tabular seeds of silver halide are formed, and a second step wherein different batches of seeds obtained in the first step are grown to yield identical or different emulsions. This combination of steps represent a robust process for preparing tabular grain emulsions at different scales.
