Film Technical Information
Environmental
Impact
Tests show that DRYVIEW Laser Imaging Film is not considered hazardous
to the environment. As a result, you can develop, recycle, and dispose of
film with less impact on the environment than if you were using
wet-developed silver halide films.
Storing and Handling
Undeveloped Film
To achieve consistent results up to the expiration date indicated on the film
package, DRYVIEW Laser Imaging Film must be stored in a cool, dry place
(41° to 77°F / 5° to 25°C) and protected from radiation and chemistry
fumes.
The film can withstand short-term temperature spikes (up to 95°F/35°C) for
several hours during transit without any significant effect on film quality or
performance. Transit temperatures above 95°F/35°C will gradually diminish
shelf life.
Handling Developed
Film
Handling DRYVIEW Laser Imaging Film requires reasonable care. Spills,
humidity, and other moisture typically have no significant effect on
developed films. However, prolonged exposure to intense light or excessive
heat (130°F/54.4°C) for more than 3 hours may cause some gradual
darkening of images. Leaving films in vehicles in hot climates for extended
periods of time is not recommended.
For best results, store film in sleeves when not being reviewed. DRYVIEW
Laser Imaging Film can be left on a light box for more than 24 hours; in
extreme cases in which light boxes are exceptionally hot (120° F/49°C),
Carestream Health, Inc. recommends removing them prior to 8 hours of
continuous exposure.
Take care when using spotlight viewing for more than 30 seconds because
temperatures near the light source may exceed 180° F/82.2°C. Use in slide
projectors is not recommended due to the high temperatures generally found
in these devices.
