Stop bath interrupts the development process and neutralizes the developer so that the fixer does not become deacidified and spoil due to carryover.
ADOSTOP, based on citric acid and with an indicator, is the noble form of the stop bath. It has no smell, or at most a pleasant citrus-fresh smell, and it shows when it has been used up by changing color from yellow to blue-violet.
When developing film and paper, ADOSTOP helps you work precisely on time by immediately interrupting the development process.
Stop bath is a must when processing baryta paper, otherwise streaks may occur.
The new ADOSTOP ECO was designed to avoid hazardous substances and uses the ADOX Captura dust binding technology.
Information on the disposal of photo chemicals can be found in the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), which you can download here or find on the website of the respective manufacturer.
Characteristics
- Pure citric acid as a base (no acetic acid content)
- Water-soluble indicator without solvent
- Almost complete odorlessness
- Biodegradable
- No more indicator failures
Capacity & Durability
At least 3 sqm/liter of mixture.
Shelf life of the working solution: Slightly shorter compared to the old version with biocide. Recommended: 1-2 weeks.
Captura dust binding technology
The innovative process binds small particles so that the powder chemicals neither smell nor produce dust during application.
ADOX powder chemistry dissolves significantly faster than conventional chemistry without CAPTURA.
Inhalation of hazardous substances can be almost completely avoided. The workplace remains clean and dust-free. But CAPTURA can do even more. It forms a protective film around the crystals and protects them from oxidation.
Once dissolved, CAPTURA disappears. It is water-soluble, non-toxic and biodegradable.
Powder chemistry is the future. It can be transported anywhere, weighs less than liquid formulations and lasts a very long time. With CAPTURA, the last reason not to use it is gone.
