2 EASTMAN Fine Grain Release Positive Film 5302™ / 7302™ • H-1-5302
PROCESSING
Use the following process recommendations as starting
points for a typical continuous-immersion processor using
formulas presented in KODAK Publication No. H-24.15,
Manual for Processing EASTMAN Motion Picture Films,
Module 15. The processing times may require modification
for a particular machine.
Notice: Observe precautionary information on product
labels and on Material Safety Data Sheets.

§
§ Drying depends on many factors such as air temperature, relative
humidity (RH), volume, rate and distribution of the air flow, final
squeegeeing, etc. In a conventional convectional-type drying cabinet
with air at about 35˚F (95˚C) and 40- to 50-percent RH, drying will take
15 to 20 minutes. In an impingement-typedrying cabinet, however, with
a highertemperature andlower RH,drying timeis greatlyreduced. WIth
either type of dryer, the film should be dry without tackiness

LUBRICATION
All films destined for projection require some lubrication to
prevent problems during early projection life. Edge waxing
with a paraffin wax solvent solution provides a simple,
inexpensive, and adequate lubrication for 35 and 70 mm
projection prints. For 8 and 16 mm prints, an overall
lubricant may be required.
IMAGE STRUCTURE
The modulation-transfer curves, the diffuse rms granularity,
and the resolving power data were generated from samples
of 5302 Film exposed with tungsten light and processed as
recommended in KODAK Developer D-97 at 21˚C (70˚F) to
the recommended control gamma. For more information on
image-structure characteristics, see KODAK Publication
No. H-1, KODAK Motion Picture Film.
