Technical applications
Gelatin is known for the value it offers in the field of photography. Formulary gelatin is used in the preparation of emulsions, or the light-sensitive layers that capture images in traditional print photography. Without it, the high-quality, glossy black-and-white photographs sought after by photographers would not be possible.
But being such a versatile material, gelatin can be used in a variety of technical applications, including ballistics, oleochemistry, sound-insulation and much more.
