Other Chemicals

In this category you will find auxiliary chemicals used in various historical and alternative photographic processes. They are not limited to a single technique – depending on the process, they may be used for preparing solutions, sensitizing or treating the support, fixing, modifying emulsion properties, or carrying out further stages of print processing.

The category includes products such as sodium thiosulfate, formalin, Tween 20, albumen, ferric ammonium citrate and potassium ferricyanide. Each chemical has a different function, so it is important to follow the recipe and working method appropriate to the specific photographic process.

If you are looking for materials for a particular technique, you can also browse our categories for Cyanotype, Salted Paper, Ambrotype / Wet Collodion, Albumen Printing, Gum Bichromate and Van Dyke Brown, where products are grouped according to their use.
