Abstract:
A method for producing a photographic film element comprising the steps of:(a) forming a layer over a polymeric support, the layer including a copolymer comprising at least one non-amine reactive comonomer and a at least one comonomer having amine reactive side groups, the amine reactive side groups having a density of at least 10.sup. sites per cm.sup.2 ;(b) heat treating the polymeric support with the layer thereon at a temperature of from about 50.degree. C. below the glass transition temperature (T.sub.g) of the polymeric support up to the glass transition temperature (T.sub.g) of the polymeric support; and(c) coating the surface having amine reactive groups thereon with an imaging pack wherein at least a bottom layer thereof includes an amine containing hydrophilic colloid binder which reacts with the amine reactive side groups.
