Abstract

The present invention is an imaging element which includes a support, and at least one imaging layer superposed on the support. A protective overcoat is superposed on the support, and is formed by coating and subsequent drying of an aqueous coating composition having therein colloidal polymer particles having a glass transition temperature of greater than 20.degree. C. and a fluoropolyether including more than 90 mole % units selected from the group consisting of --CF.sub.2 --CF.sub.2 --O--, --CF.sub.2 --O--, --CF(CF.sub.3)--O--, and --CF.sub.2 --CF(CF.sub.3)--O--, and a functional group selected from the group consisting of COOH, --CH.sub.2 --OH, --CH.sub.2 --COOH, --CH.sub.2 --SO.sub.3 H, --CH.sub.2 --PO.sub.3 H, --(CH.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 --O)--H, and --(CH.sub.2 --CH(CH.sub.3)--O--)--H. The present invention includes the imaging element produced from the coating composition.
