Abstract
Thermally processable imaging elements in which the image is formed by imagewise heating or by imagewise exposure to light followed by uniform heating are provided with both a backing layer and an electroconductive layer to reduce static electricity effects and improve conveyance through processing equipment. The backing layer is an outermost layer and is located on the side of the support opposite to the imaging layer whereas the electroconductive layer is an inner layer and can be disposed on either side of the support.
