Abstract

Abstract A combination of improved coatability plus better control of static electricity can result from using a mixture of (a) a certain type of cationic perfluorinated alkyl surfactant such as perfluorooctylsulfonamido-(N-propyl-3-N,N,N-trimethyl) ammonium iodide plus (b) a certain type of alkylphenoxypoly-(propylene oxide) such as p-nonylphenoxy decaglycidol as a coating aid in the application of fluid coatings upon the surface(s) of radiation sensitive film elements. The presence of a polymeric binder such as gelatin in the coating composition is desirable. Synergistic coating results are obtained when a coating composition containing the mixture is applied to light sensitive layers that are troublesome to simultaneously overcoat because they contain materials that are extremely surface active.
