Abstract

Abstract This invention relates to a process for improving the adhesiveness of a negative-working copying layer to a coppercontaining support. The invention also relates to a presensitized negative-working copying material comprising a copper-containing support having a layer thereon of enhanced adhesiveness. In the process, the copper-containing support is coated with a layer containing tetramethylthiuram disulfide and/or one or more organic compounds having at least one mercapto group. A lightsensitive compound may be included in the same layer with the sulfur-containing compound.
