KODAK Panchromatic Separation Film 2238
KODAK Panchromatic Separation Film 2238 (ESTAR Base) is a black-and-white film intended for making archival black-and-white separation positives from color negative originals. Other product applications for this film include special effects, density cover mattes, panchromatic masters from black-and-white negatives, and restoration work.
This new film replaces EASTMAN Panchromatic Separation Film 5235 and SO 202 (ESTAR Base). It provides improved image structure (sharpness and highlight grain), improved raw-stock keeping for more consistent results, and faster drying. There is also a reduced propensity for ferrotyping and the possibility to process at higher temperatures.
Improved spectral sensitization gives better color reproduction, similar to that of EASTMAN EXR Color Intermediate Film 5244/2244 (especially when using the recommended KODAK WRATTEN Gelatin Filter No. 70 for the red exposure with subtractive or additive printing light sources).
