Abstract

It has surprisingly been found that a protective coating composition for diazo-containing materials can be prepared from a cellulose ester, a hydroxylated resin, a crosslinking agent, microcrystalline silica and an acid catalyst. The coating compositions of the invention provide improved protection for diazo-containing materials from physical and chemical damage. The protective coating compositions of the invention are particularly effective for protecting the diazo-containing materials from chemical attack from solvents. The invention further relates to photographic elements and phototools provided with the protective coating composition and a method for providing the coating composition.
