While chlorohydroquinone is still available it is rather expensive. I found a quote of 157 Euros for 500 grams. The last commercial developer that I know of that uses chlorohydroquinone is Edwal FG-7. In the MSDS for this product they list hydrochloric acid and p-benzoquinone. They must synthesis the chlorohydroquinone from these two ingredients. -----Original Message----- From: pure-silver-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:pure-silver-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Richard Knoppow Sent: Friday, June 16, 2006 11:32 PM To: pure-silver@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [pure-silver] Chlor-Hydroquinone Developer (Defender 3D) Someone asked about catachol print developers. I am still looking but ran across this which may be of interest. Defender says its slightly warmer than 55D and will tone warmer than prints developed in 55D. I have no idea if Chlorhydroquinone is still available. Defender 3D Stock Solution Water (at 125F or 52C) 500.0 ml Sodium Sulfite, dessicated 16.0 grams Chlor-hydroquinone 4.0 grams Sodium Carbonate, anhydrous 16.0 grams Potassium bromide 0.5 grams Water to make 1.0 liter For use dilute 1 part stock with 1 part water. Full development takes about 4 minutes. --- Richard Knoppow Los Angeles, CA, USA dickburk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ======================================================================== ===================================== To unsubscribe from this list, go to www.freelists.org and logon to your account (the same e-mail address and password you set-up when you subscribed,) and unsubscribe from there. ============================================================================================================To unsubscribe from this list, go to www.freelists.org and logon to your account (the same e-mail address and password you set-up when you subscribed,) and unsubscribe from there.
