Abstract

An imaging element comprising; PA1 a support; PA1 at least one image forming layer superposed on the support; and an PA1 electrically-conductive layer superposed on the support; said electrically-conductive layer comprising a substituted or unsubstituted thiophene-containing electrically-conductive polymer and a cellulosic polymer binder. Such an electrically-conductive layer provides protection against the accumulation of static electrical charges before and after image processing and provides improved physical properties.
