11、ternational Organization for Standardization (ISO). This British Standard will form one of a series of standards dealing with specifications for processed film for archival records and attention is drawn toPart2 of this standard (being published simultaneously) dealing with silver-gelatin type on po

12、ly(ethylene terephthalate) base. Attention is also drawn to the following standards in course of preparation. Terminology and conventions. The text of the International Standard has been approved as suitable for publication, without deviation, as a British Standard. Some terminology and certain conv

13、entions are not identical with those used in British Standards; attention is especially drawn to the following. The comma has been used throughout as a decimal marker. In British Standards it is current practice to use a full point on the baseline as the decimal marker. Wherever the words “Internati

19、n of records. The preservation of film records by governments, banks, insurance companies, industry and other enterprises has been stimulated by a recognition of the economies in storage space, organization, accessibility, and ease of reproduction that result from the use of film records. During the

20、 early development period of the art of copying documents,35mm nitrate motion-picture film was sometimes used. This material is highly flammable and deteriorates rapidly under unfavourable storage conditions. Nitrate film is not acceptable for any archival record use. The manufacture of nitrate film

21、 declined after World WarII and was discontinued in most countries during the1950s. For many years, the only films suitable for archival storage were made on some type of cellulose ester base. Various synthetic polymer film bases have since appeared. The useful life of cellulose ester type material

22、extends back only to about1908. Experience with the film during that time and the results of accelerated ageing tests and other studies predict, however, that the material is capable of enduring as long as rag paper under normal storage conditions. This International Standard is intended to eliminat

23、e possible hazards to permanence attributable to the chemical or physical characteristics of the processed film. Some of those characteristics are the responsibility of the film manufacturer, some of the film processor, and some are influenced by both. However, specifying the chemical and physical c

24、haracteristics of the material does not, by itself, ensure satisfactory archival behaviour. It is essential to provide proper storage temperature and humidity and protection from the hazards of fire, water, fungus and certain atmospheric pollutants. 1 Scope and field of application 1.1 This Internat

25、ional Standard establishes the specifications for safety cellulose ester type films having silver-gelatin type emulsions processed to produce a stable black-and-white photographic image. 1.2 Silver images produced by full reversal processing are included. Silver images that have been chemically alte

26、red by treatments such as toning, reduction, or intensification are excluded. Colour films are excluded. However, a gold protection treatment is not excluded. Silver images produced by dry processing, diffusion transfer, monobath processing and halide reversal processing are also excluded. 1.3 This

27、International Standard is applicable to microfilm, motion-picture film roll film, and sheet film intended for archival record films. 1.4 Lacquers and lubricants have been applied to processed film for fungus and scratch protection without any known detrimental effect on permanence. However, because

28、of the wide variety of possible materials, lacquered and lubricated film are excluded from this International Standard. 2 References ISO417, Photography Determination of thiosulphate and other residual chemicals in processed photographic films, plates and papers Methylene blue photometric method and

32、url backing layer a layer, usually made of gelatin, applied to the side of the film base opposite that of the emulsion layer for the purpose of preventing curl. It is comparable to the emulsion layer in thickness and is not removed in processing. (Antihalation or other layers removed in processing a

33、re excluded from this definition.) 3.6 mushiness; wet penetration strength a term used to indicate the wet strength of emulsion and backing layers. It is the minimum force on a stylus required to penetrate the emulsion surface. A high mushiness value denotes a high wet strength 4 Physical requiremen

34、ts controlled by the film manufacturer 4.1 Film base type The base used for archival record film shall be of safety cellulose ester type and can be identified by the method specified in7.1. 4.2 Viscosity retention The relative viscosity of a solution of film base obtained from processed film shall n

35、ot show a loss which exceeds5% as the result of accelerated ageing of the processed film. The accelerated ageing shall be accomplished as specified in7.2 and the viscosity determined as specified in7.3. 4.3 Ignition time The film shall meet the requirements for ignition time specified inISO543. 4.4

36、Burning time The film shall meet the requirements for burning time specified inISO543. 4.5 Nitrate nitrogen content The film shall not contain more than0,15% nitrate nitrogen, as determined by the method specified inISO543. 4.6 Free acidity and acidity increase The film shall not have a free acidity

37、 greater than the equivalent of0,5ml of0,1N sodium hydroxide solution per gram of film when measured as specified in7.4. The volume of0,1N sodium hydroxide solution equivalent to the free acidity of the processed film shall not increase by more than0,5ml over its original value after accelerated age

A slight sticking of the film samples which does not result in physical damage or a change in the gloss of the surface shall be acceptable. 5.4 Image stability The film image shall show no degradation

46、which would impair the film for its intended use, when tested as specified in7.11. 6 Thiosulphate concentration This characteristic is determined by the processing conditions. (SeeAnnex A.) Films may be fixed in solutions containing either sodium thiosulphate or ammonium thiosulphate.3 After process

47、ing, the film shall not contain a greater concentration of residual thiosulphate calculated as thiosulphate ions,S 2 O 3 , than that specified inTable 3, when determined as specified inISO417.9 Table 3 Limits for thiosulphate concentration The analysis for thiosulphate shall be made on a film sample

48、 from a clear area and shall be made within2weeks after processing. (SeeAnnex B.) The test method does not measure any change in the sample between the time of processing and the time of analysis but is used to judge the keeping of the film following the time of the test. Films having a photographic

49、 layer on both sides of the base, or films having a photographic layer on one side and a non-curl backing layer on the reverse side, are permitted the specified concentration of residual thiosulphate in each side of the film. Films are classified according to two broad classes of graininess inTable 3. If the graininess of the film is not known, a sample of the exposed and processed film should be examined under a comparison microscope at20 magnification or greater, along with samples whose classifications according to graininess are
