Abstract
The present invention improves the conservation of a photographic product with a cellulose ester type support. The present invention involves coating on the support or the photographic product with a transparent film-forming aqueous composition. The composition is a fibrous alumino-silicate polymer of formula Al.sub.x Si.sub.y O.sub.z in which x:y is between 1 and 3, and z is between 2 and 6. The support can be treated before the application of the photographic layers (as a substratum or under-layer) or after the application of the photographic layers (as a top layer). It is also possible to treat an exposed, developed film by applying a top layer of the said composition.
