Abstract
Abstract Polymer compositions which have a low coefficient of friction are disclosed. The polymer compositions comprise a blend of at least 80 percent by weight of a solid or film-forming polymer and at least 0.35 percent by weight of a crosslinked silicone polycarbinol. The described composition retains its low coefficient of friction even after being exposed to hydrocarbon solvents during a cleaning process. The described compositions are particularly useful in forming protective layers for elements, particularly photographic elements.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
49 words
A photographic element comprising a support having on one side thereof a hydrophilic, radiation-sensitive layer and on the other side thereof, as the outermost layer, a layer comprising a blend of a major amount of a polymer or polymer blend and a minor amount of a crosslinked silicone polycarbinol.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
49 words
A photographic element comprising a support having on one side thereof a hydrophilic, radiation-sensitive layer and on the other side thereof, as the outermost layer, a layer comprising a blend of a major amount of a polymer or polymer blend and a minor amount of a crosslinked silicone polycarbinol.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
66 words
The invention according to claim 1 wherein said polymer is a compatible polymer blend comprising: (a) cellulose nitrate and (b) a hydrophobic acrylate polymer wherein said polymer blend has a sufficient amount of the acrylate polymer so as to have a glass transition temperature of at least about 50° C. and a sufficient amount of cellulose nitrate so as to be resistant to chlorinated hydrocarbon solvents.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
148 words
A photographic element comprising a support having on one side thereof a hydrophilic, radiation-sensitive layer and on the other side thereof, as the outermost layer, a layer comprising a blend of a major amount of a polymer or polymer blend and a minor amount of a crosslinked member of the group consisting of a hydroxy-terminated polysiloxane of the general structure: ##STR3## wherein each of R 1 and R 2 is independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl and aryl and w is an integer from about 100 to about 2500, and a graft hydroxy functionalized polysiloxane having the general structure: ##STR4## wherein R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 and R 5 are each independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl and aryl and R 6 is a divalent linking group and x and y are each independently selected from an integer from about 2 to about 15.
