Abstract:
A thermally developable material that comprises a support having on one side thereof, one or more thermally developable imaging layers comprising a binder and in reactive association, a non-photosensitive source of reducible silver ions, and a reducing agent composition for said non-photosensitive source reducible silver ions, andhaving disposed on the backside of said support: a) a first layer comprising a film-forming polymer, and b) interposed between said support and said first layer and directly adhering said first layer to said support, a non-imaging backside conductive layer comprising non-acicular metal antimonate particles in a mixture of two or more polymers that include a first polymer serving to promote adhesion of said conductive layer directly to said support, and a second polymer that is different than and forms a single phase mixture with said first polymer, wherein said film-forming polymer of said first layer and said second polymer of said conductive layer are the same or different polyvinyl acetal resins, polyester resins, cellulosic polymers, maleic anhydride-ester copolymers, or vinyl polymers.
