Abstract

Abstract A sheet or web material being a subbed or unsubbed hydrophobic resin support or paper support coated with at least one hydrophobic resin layer having at least on one side an outermost antistatic layer containing colloidal silica, characterised in that the antistatic layer is free from any cationic surfactant and consists for at least 70 % by weight of colloidal silica having an average particle size not larger than 10 nm and a surface area of at least 300 m2 per gram, the colloidal silica being present at a coverage of at least 50 mg per m2.
