摘要:
Imaging elements, such as photographic, electrostatographic and thermal imaging elements, are comprised of a support, an image-forming layer and an electrically-conductive layer comprising electrically-conductive metal-containing particles dispersed in a binder system comprising a blend of a film-forming polymer and an anionic polymer. The combination of electrically-conductive metal-containing particles, film-forming polymer and anionic polymer provides a controlled degree of electrical conductivity and excellent adhesion to gelatin-containing layers, such as silver halide emulsion layers of photographic elements, in adhering contact with the electrically-conductive layer.

A method of forming an optical compensation film includes coating one or more first layers and one or more second layers onto a carrier substrate, and stretching the first layers and second layers simultaneously. The one or more first layers include a polymer having an out-of-plane birefringence (Δnth) not more negative than −0.005 and not more positive than +0.005, and the one or more second layers include a polymer having an out-of-plane birefringence more negative than −0.005 or more positive than +0.005. The overall in-plane retardation (Rin) of the optical compensation film is greater than 20 nm and the out-of-plane retardation (Rth) of the optical compensation film is more negative than −20 nm or more positive than +20 nm.

A high-CHDM PET-based support for an imaging element can be annealed relatively rapidly to achieve acceptable core-set and post-process curl properties. The fast annealing response of this material allows effective in-line annealing of the film support, yielding a more efficient manufacturing process with less annealing-induced defects in the imaging support.

This invention relates to a poly(ethylene terephthalate)-based photographic film base having improved properties with regard to cutting, perforating, and other finishing or phototofinishing operations. The film base comprises a material in which a specified amount of monomeric units derived from 1,4-cyclohexane dimethanol (CHDM), such that the film base has a specified cutting-related property. The level of CHDM in the PET-based polyester material can be adjusted either by physical blending of polyesters containing CHDM monomeric units or by synthetic incorporation of CHDM monomer units into a PET-based polyester backbone.
