- Abstract
- With the invention and development of the motion-picture film projector in the late eighteen hundreds there came a need for long lengths of a flexible transparent film support which could be coated with photographic emulsion to provide rolls of positive and negative film. As a result of close cooperation between George Eastman and Thomas A. Edison a film support made from cellulose nitrate was developed. A Kodak chemist, Harry M. Reichenbach, formulated the first successful base coating composition in 1889.<sup>1</sup>
