Imaging elements comprising an electrically conductive layer containing acicular metal-containing particles

摘要

The present invention describes imaging elements which include a support, an image-forming layer and an electrically-conductive layer. The electrically conductive layer is a dispersion in a film-forming binder of acicular, crystalline single phase, conductive metal-containing particles having a cross-sectional diameter less than 0.02 mu m and an aspect ratio of greater than or equal to 5:1.
