Hi Bruce,
The "B" solution is a saturated solution (100%) of Potassium Carbonate, a
satureted solution of Sodium Carbonate will not be the same, it will be less
active since you can solute less Sodium Carbonate to the "max"... There are
older formula's of PyrocatHD which use 10% sodium carbonate as part B
(obviously you have to add more..)
Best,
Cor

...CARBONATE
The formula for Pyrocat HD that I have calls for 75 g Potassium Carbonate in
Part B.
The "Calls For, You Got" section of the Cookbook suggests Sodium Carbonate can
be used in place of Potassium by using 1.12 time the amount of Potassium.
I don't question this to be true but there must be a difference in the final
product -- no? If you don't use Potassium won't you loose something or gain
something you probably don't want? Or are the results interpreted as equal?
