A New Heat-Developable Motion-Picture Print Film

Noel R. Bacon, Robert B. Lindemeyer

A dry photographic system applicable to the motion-picture, television and educational film industries. Metro-Kalvar, is described. The system is based upon the phenomenon of light scattering accomplished within a film of thermoplastic resin coated upon a base of transparent polyester. This basic system of photography utilizes ultraviolet exposure and heat development. Details about its departure from traditional motion-picture print materials and procedures are outlined. Developmental tests and equipment are discussed.
