Moisture in Motion Picture Film

V. B. Sease

MOISTURE plays an important part in determining many of the properties of motion picture film. The amount of moisture to be found in film is approximately a linear function of the relative humidity of the atmosphere with which the film is in equilibrium. The moisture content of a number of uncoated samples of film base which had been stored at room temperature (70° F.) at different humidities varied from 1.2% at a relative humidity of 20% to 4.1% at a relative humidity of 95%.
