The two products are for a similar purpose but are
different. Sistan contains Ammonium thiocyanate and a
wetting agent. I think the wetting agent is there because
sistan is intended to be the last bath the film or paper
gets but it may be needed for some other purpose.
I don't know what is in Ag-Guard. I believe Ryuji Suzuki
said there is a patent covering it which includes formulas
but I don't have the patent number. Being patented would
prevent you from making it anyway unless Fuji is willing to
license you. I don't think AgfaPhoto is going to go out of
business anytime soon despite the recent stories. Neither
will Fuji but they don't seem interested in marketing their
chemistry in North America.
