Ilfochrome (also commonly known as Cibachrome) is a dye
destruction positive-to-positive photographic process used
for the reproduction of film transparencies on photographic
paper. The prints are made on a dimensionally stable
polyester base as opposed to traditional paper base. Since
it uses 13 layers of azo dyes sealed in a polyester base,
the print will not fade, discolor, or deteriorate for an
extended time. Accelerated aging tests conducted by Henry
Wilheim indicated the product resisted fading under display
conditions longer than any other known photographic color
material. Characteristics of Ilfochrome prints are image
clarity, color purity, as well as being an archival process
able to produce critical accuracy to the original
transparency.
