Antistatic compositions comprising a highly crosslinked vinylbenzyl quaternary ammonium polymer and a hydrophobic binder are described. Elements, particularly photographic elements, having a layer of the antistatic compositions are also described. The compositions are characterized by a binder to antistatic polymer ratio of about 10:1 to 1:1. The compositions are highly conductive in thin layers and retain substantial conductivity at low relative humidity. Layers of the antistatic compositions are particularly useful for photographic elements because they can be contacted over a wide range of conditions with a hydrophilic layer without resulting in ferrotyping.

A coating composition useful in forming conductive layers comprises a conductive, water-dispersible, particulate polymer and a crosslinkable latex binder. The crosslinkable latex has a first glass transition temperature before crosslinking of substantially less than 50° C. and a second glass transition temperature after crosslinking and coalescing of substantially greater than 50° C. wherein the first and second glass transition temperatures differ by more than 4° C. The coating composition can be coated on a variety of supports to produce conductive elements. The coating compositions are particularly useful in forming photographic elements which are resistant to the buildup of static charge and ferrotyping.
