[pure-silver] Re: What happens when XTOL dies

 Formulary Paraminophenol is a p-aminophenol hydrochloride film developer
that is economical and excellent for slower speed films (ASA 32-200). Unless
graininess is desired, Formulary Rodinal is not recommended for faster
films. Formulary Rodinal produces very good sharpness, high acutance and
fine grain when used to develop modern, ultra fine-grain emulsions. The
contrast is variable and depends upon dilution and development times. The
chemicals in the kit are used to prepare a stock solution, which is diluted
1:50 or 1:100 to yield up to 100 liters of working solution. The shelf life
of the stock solution is six months. The working solution is used once and
then discarded.

Because the developer is used at very high dilution, it has a compensating
action that prevents blocked highlights and brings out shadow detail.

This is an old Agfa formula but we are uncertain how similar it is to the
most recent liquid version they had out. As with all new developers we
recommend that you do your own tests.
