Description
Photographers' Formulary 10-0260 100G Overview
Borax which is also known as Sodium Borate, can be used as a component in some developer formulas.
Borax acts as an alkali (accelerator), this shortens developing time for practical purposes. Development will still take place in the absence of an alkali but it will take considerably longer.
Developing agents work more effectively in an alkaline environment hence the addition of an alkali in the developer formula substantially reduces the development time and the subsequent use of an acid stop bath halts development abruptly by neutralizing the alkali and producing an acid environment.
In 1988 the Dial (soap) Corporation bought the exclusive rights to make and sell such home pantry staples as 20-Mule-Team Borax all-purpose cleaner, Borateem stain remover and Boraxo powdered hand soap.
At the time the U.S. president is Ronald Reagan, fondly remembered as the host of "Death Valley Days" once sponsored on TV by Borax.
