i. Stabilizer.
The stabilizer is primarily a wetting agent with
formaldehyde added. The wetting agent allows for spot-free drying, and the
formaldehyde stabilizes the dye images and further hardens the emulsion
layers.
j. Drying. Dry the film in a dust-free area. If you use heat to dry
film, the temperature must not exceed 120 degrees F (49 degrees C).
