Kodak AS-116 manual Dimensional Stability, Size Data and Ordering Information, Curves

DIMENSIONAL STABILITY

The dimensional stability of aerial films is of particular interest and importance in accurate mapping and in the reproduction of maps.

Dimensional stability is an all-inclusive term. In photography, it applies to size changes caused by changes in humidity and in temperature, and by processing and aging. The absence of solvent in ESTAR Base is one of the reasons why ESTAR Base films show excellent dimensional stability. The dimensional properties of ESTAR Base may vary slightly in different directions within a sheet; the differences that may exist, however, are not always between the length and width directions.

Temporary Dimensional Changes

Thermal Coefficient of Linear Expansion:

0.001%	per degree F of change
0.0018%	per degree C of change
Humidity Coefficient of Linear Expansion (Unprocessed):
0.0025%	per 1% change in relative humidity

Permanent Dimensional Changes

Processing Dimensional Change:

-0.02% to +0.01%	shrinkage to swell
Aging Shrinkage of Processed Film:
0.06%	1 week at 120°F (49°C), 20% RH
0.03%	1 year at 78°F (25.5°C), 60% RH
