fixer (fixative, <materials by function>, ... Materials (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: In silver gelatin photographic processing, a fixing bath contains a chemical, either sodium thiosulfate or ammonium thiosulfate, used to remove light sensitive silver halides from a photographic image and thus stabilize prints or film, fixing it, after it has been exposed to light. Ammonium thiosulfate was later adopted as a fixing salt because it acts three to four times faster, though is less stable. |

Additional Notes: |
|
Dutch ..... In het fotografisch proces met zilvergelatine bevat een fixeerbad een chemische stof, natriumthiosulfaat of ammoniumthiosulfaat, waarmee na de ontwikkeling de lichtgevoelige zilverhaliden uit het fotografisch beeld worden gehaald, zodat afdrukken of film worden gestabiliseerd. Dit proces heet 'fixeren'. Men is later ammoniumthiosulfaat als fixeerzout gaan gebruiken, omdat dit drie tot vier keer zo snel werkt, maar dat is wel minder stabiel. |
