The invention relates to an inkjet-recording element comprising a support and at least one coated ink-receiving layer, wherein the ink-receiving layer comprises silica particles, optional hydrophilic polymeric binder, and a combination of surfactants, including a fluorosurfactant and a non-fluorine-containing non-ionic surfactant. Also disclosed is a coating composition for such an inkjet recording element. The invention can provide improved image quality (reduced coalescence) of the inkjet recording element or increased stability of the coating composition.
