I just spent half an hour with a browser trying to make sense out of Kodak websites, but I give up. Is there a page somewhere which lists the old Kodak technical publications (e.g., for different developers, films, etc.)? I used to have a sheet of compact into on the storage longevity of various chemicals but I can't find it now.

Good Afternoon, Doc,

I have a number of the publications with data sheets for various films that were in use up to around the 1980's. If you have specific information you need, I'll be glad to check.

It definitely helps if you know the number of the specific tech bulletin you are interested in. Lots of these have been re-posted or still even exist somewhere on the Kodak data base. I don't know if anyone has a master index on file. Lots of the old printed data books turn up in used bookstores.

Until about a couple of months ago a lot of the historical documentation was still being maintained by Kodak Alaris (accessible through redirect from Eastman Kodak's site).

All that is now gone.

You need to have downloaded them in the last decade or so. I wish www.butkus.org would want that stuff. I have tried to send him my enlarger manual archive and darkroom PDF archive but he does not want to host that stuff.

Here is what I want, specifically.
- the one-page data sheet on storage life and capacity (I think) for Kodak b&w chemistry
- individual tech pubs on Dektol, Kodafix but also other developers and fixers

Thanks for the responses. I wonder if Alaris can be coaxed into parking this data somewhere.

I also have a box each of Super-XX and Plus-X, both in 4x5, and a box of Technical Pan in 8x10. Tech pubs on these would be helpful.

Doubt you'll get a PDF data sheet on Super-XX unless someone has/ can scan the datasheet for you.

For the rest, look here at the bottom of the page - & I'd guess the listed contact will be able to supply any specific PDFs not listed.

The one page document is included in the link on Kodak Alaris' site that Lachlan Young pointed to. Here is the individual link: http://imaging.kodakalaris.com/sites/prod/files/files/resources/e103cf.pdf

I don't know if I have ever seen individual data sheets on Dektol and Kodafix.

The old Kodak Darkroom Dataguides have information such as developing times on the older films.

Good Afternoon, Doc,

Does what Silveror0 has posted cover what you need? If not, I'll check for the info and respond in a later message.
