Film development developer volume

Add 20.0 ml of replenisher for each 802 inches film developed. Maintain the original volume of the developer, discarding some used developer if necessary in order to add the necessary amount of replenisher. No increase in original developing time is necessary. 

Diluted 1 3 development results in full midtones and lower contrast. Try 1.5 X the time used for the full-strength developer and use three times the developer volume for each 802 inches of film. 

A major challenge in developing techniques for characterizing film materials is the limited amount of material present. For example, in a one-micrometer-thick film, there is only 10 cm of material for each cm of film area. Thus, a 10-cm film has a volume of only one microliter and a mass on the order of one milligram. Many material characterization instruments do not have sufficient sensitivity to analyze these small volumes or masses [9], In addition, those tech-... 

Flack and co-workers developed a complex model that included the effects of evaporation on the rheological properties of the viscous fluid. Their work established the idea that only fluid viscosity, angular speed, and evaporative effects are important in determining the final film thickness. Dispense volume, dispense rate, and other factors seem not to be particularly critical in determining the final film thickness as long as the wafer is spun for a sufficiently long time. Yet, in spite of evaporative effects, the final thickness /if of the fluid can be fairly well predicted with an inverse power law relationship [Eq. (11.13)], where C is a constant depending on the viscosity and contains the effects of viscous forces. 

For scintillation counting of the concentration of extracted labelled additive in the fatty foodstuff simulant Figge used a scintillation spectrometer employing a mixture of 4 g of 2,5-diphenyloxazol and 0.3 g of 1,4 his-2-(4-methyl-5-phenyloxazolyl)-benzol in 1 litre of Merck 8325 toluene as the scintillation liquid. The contact area between plastic film and simulant liquid was varied between 28.25 cm and 67.93 cm. In any particular series of tests the contact area of film and the volume of the extraction cell was kept constant. Figge and Piater [14,20] developed formulae for the calculation of the corrected time dependent migration rates (%) from their radioactivity measurements on the extractant after specified time intervals. A typical extraction curve obtained for olive oil extractant and polystyrene is illustrated in Figure 4.6. 

Abbot Florimond announced that one can inflate much larger soap bubbles with a glass pipe than with a clay pipe he attributes this difference to the clay absorbing or retaining the liquid, so that the incipient spherical film develops only at the expense of its thickness, while with the glass pipe, the liquid slips easily to the extreme edge of the opening, and the bubble acquires a certain volume thus before the film which constitutes it thins. 

Polyimides are an important class of polymers for high temperature aerospace applications. Thin polyimide films are ideal candidates for protective coatings on antenna reflectors and other electronic applications. Their properties, both physical and electrical, are expected to be strongly influenced by their morphology. We have developed a novel technique for monitoring microstructural characteristics of thin polymer films. It is based on the sensitivity of the positron lifetimes to the molecular architecture of the polymers. Specifically, positron lifetimes can be used to calculate free volume hole radii and free volume fractions in the test polymers. A free volume model has been developed to calculate dielectric constants of thin polyimide films. It has been tested on a series of special purpose polyimide films developed for aerospace communication networks. The results are described in the following sections. 

The preceding treatment relates primarily to flocculation rates, while the irreversible aging of emulsions involves the coalescence of droplets, the prelude to which is the thinning of the liquid film separating the droplets. Similar theories were developed by Spielman [54] and by Honig and co-workers [55], which added hydrodynamic considerations to basic DLVO theory. A successful experimental test of these equations was made by Bernstein and co-workers [56] (see also Ref. 57). Coalescence leads eventually to separation of bulk oil phase, and a practical measure of emulsion stability is the rate of increase of the volume of this phase, V, as a function of time. A useful equation is... 

Some of the techniques included apply more broadly than just to surfaces, interfaces, or thin films for example X-Ray Diffraction and Infrared Spectroscopy, which have been used for half a century in bulk solid and liquid analysis, respectively. They are included here because they have by now been developed to also apply to surfaces. A few techniques that are applied almost entirely to bulk materials (e.g.. Neutron Diffraction) are included because they give complementary information to other methods or because they are referred to significantly in the 10 materials volumes in the Series. Some techniques were left out because they were considered to be too restricted to specific applications or materials.
