Photographic paper support with a water resistant coating of polyethylene

摘要

A photographic paper support, which carries on both sides a water resistant coating of polyethylene, is disclosed. The polyethylene is a polyethylene of relatively low density of between 0.930 and 0.936 gram per cubic centimeter, which is produced according to high pressure polymerization. In particular, low density polyethylene (LDPE) produced according to the high pressure method with a density of 0.934 gram per cubic centimeter can be employed.
