Abstract

Abstract A method of subbing plastic films, particularly for use in photography, comprising applying an aqueous subbing composition to a surface thereof, the aqueous subbing composition comprising a polymer prepared from 45 to 99.5% by weight of at least one monomer selected from the group consisting of vinylidene chloride and vinyl chloride; 0.1 to 15% by weight of at least one monomer selected from vinyl monomers having one or more alcohol groups in their side chains; and 0 to 54.4% by weight of at least one monomer selected from the group consisting of acrylates, methacrylates, acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile, alkyl vinyl esters, and alkyl vinyl ethers.
