Learn how celluloid evolved from early substitutes to a flexible workhorse of industry. This book traces the raw materials, like cellulose and nitro-cellulose, and the methods that turned them into films, varnishes, and artificial silk.

What you’ll get:

• Foundations of the raw materials, how they’re processed, and why they behave the way they do.


• A look at the manufacturing steps that create celluloid and related products.


• Ways celluloid has been used as a substitute for glass, ivory, and other materials.
