  • the film may be pretreated or coated in such a way to improve the adhesion of the subbing layer to the film surface.
  • Conventional chemical or physical pretreatments such as coating the film surface with a solution having a swelling, solvent or oxidising action on the film, corona discharge treatment, flame treatment, or ultra-violet light treatment may be used.
  • the plastics film may carry on adhesion-promoting polymeric layer to which the subbing layer according to the invention may be applied.
  • subbing compositions bond with acceptable adhesion to the polyester film surface when applied to the film during the process for its manufacture. Satisfactory adhesion is obtainable by direct application of the subbing composition to the polyester film surface without any pretreatment or interposition of an adhesion-promoting layer.

  • adequate wet and dry adhesion can be obtained in the absence of a gelatinous subbing layer and by adhering the light-sensitive photographic emulsion layer directly to the copolymeric subbing layer.
  • Modification of the surface of the copolymeric subbing layer may improve the adhesion of a light-sensitive photographic emulsion layer applied directly to the copolymeric subbing layer but may not be essential to the provision of satisfactory adhesion.
  • the preferred treatment by corona discharge may be effected in air at atmospheric pressure with conventional equipment using a high frequency, high voltage generator, preferably having a power output of from 1 to 20 kw at a potential of 1 to 100 kv.

  • the light-sensitive photographic emulsion may optionally include any of the conventional additives.
  • the coated film bases also have excellent anti- static properties such that they pass effectively and without interruption through coating machines, e.g. for the application of light-sensitive photographic emulsions.
  • Dry adhesion refers to the adhesion of a gelatinous silver halide emulsion to the plastics film in the final photographic film, assessed, both before and after processing in standard photographic chemicals, by sticking a self-adhesive tape along the torn edge of the film and rapidly separating the tape from the film.
  • Wet adhesion refers to the adhesion of a gelatinous silver halide emulsion to the plastics film in the final photographic film, assessed, after processing in the standard photographic chemicals and washing in water for 15 minutes by rubbing with a sponge over a series of lines scored in the still wet emulsion.
