Abstract
A primer-less coating composition for facestock comprises: a binder being a water-dispersible polymer; an ethylenically unsaturated compound which is aqueous-dispersible and miscible with or bonded to the water-dispersible polymer, wherein the ethylenically unsaturated compound is able to form a covalent bond with an ink; and a crosslinker that is suitable for binding the coating to the facestock. The coating composition may be applied to a substrate to form a printable film. A printed film having the coating may be used in a label, for example for use on a container such as a bottle.
