Abstract
Abstract A light-sensitive material comprising a polyester film, the surface of the polyester film being subjected to a treatment to render the surface hydrophilic, a subbing layer on the treated surface comprising a polymer having carboxyl groups or groups which form carboxyl groups upon hydrolysis and an addition polymerizable monomer selected from the group consisting of acrylic acid, itaconic acid, hexahydro-1,3,5-triacryl-s-triazine, N,N'-bisacryloyl piperazine, diacetone acrylamide and hexamethylene bis-ethyleneureide and a silver halide emulsion layer on the subbing layer, whereby good adhesion between the polyester film and the coating layer is obtained.
