Actually, my friend has a developer foaming problem in his JOBO and
is looking for some Kodak Antifoam B, which is what that particular
compound was used for. I did find references to the version that you
reference below, and there is some of that available on eBay.
I'm looking for that which is made for use in film developers.
Thanks,
Jim
I found a reference to Antifoam Emulsion B as being a mixture of dimethyl siloxanes, methyl cellulose, and hydrogenated tallow glycerides manufactured by Hill Brothers Chemical Co. If you are making the substitute Photo-Flo given by Dignan, I have found that the antifoam can be omitted provided one follow the direction not to use too much say 5 drops per 8 ounces of water.
The tallow glycerides explains why Photo-Flo leaves a greasy coating on film when too much is used.
