In films from 1950 on, the prefex "52" designates 35 mm negative size, "72" designates 16 mm, 8 mm does not have its own prefix, but shares the "72"; where 8 mm stock is or was manufactured by Kodak, it is so indicated. The "T" designates a tungsten (3200K) balanced negative and "D" designates a daylight (5600K) negative. The number preceding this is the film's speed (ISO).
