Abstract: A coated film base suitable for coating with a light-sensitive photographic emulsion film comprises a self-supporting film of a synthetic linear polyester and a continuous subbing layer applied to at least one surface of said self-supporting film comprising a water-insoluble copolymer of (a) a comonomer selected from acrylic acid, methacrylic acid or a derivative of acrylic acid or methacrylic acid and (b) a copolymerizable sulphonated ethylenically unsaturated comonomer having the general structure: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are the same or different and represent hydrogen, halogen, alkyl, nitrile, amide, amine, ketone, ether or vinyl;R.sub.

Abstract: Improvements in coated film bases. Photobase comprising a film support, e.g. a polyethylene terephthalate film, having a copolymeric subbing layer comprising a copolymer of acrylic acid or an alkyl ester thereof/methacrylic acid or an alkyl ester thereof/itaconic acid or itaconic anhydride, e.g. an ethyl acrylate/methyl methacrylate/itaconic acid copolymer, and containing free itaconic acid, half ester or anhydride which is directly adherent to light-sensitive photographic emulsions.

Abstract: A process for the production of moulded articles, such as sheet laminates, which comprises applying and curing a layer of a curable unsaturated polyester resin to a forming layer of film composite, e.g., a polyethylene terephthalate film layer, and a polymeric adhesive layer, consisting essentially of an isophthalate/terephthalate copolyester.
