It is essential for photographers who process their own prints to have reliable chemicals that ensure the highest quality results. The Photographers' Formulary Ammonium Aluminum Sulfate is a premium-grade photographic hardener designed to enhance the durability and longevity of your photographic prints. This versatile compound serves as an excellent alternative to traditional alum hardeners, offering consistent performance in various photographic applications.Crafted with precision, this 1lb package of Ammonium Aluminum Sulfate is specifically formulated for use in photographic processes where a hardening agent is required. It is commonly integrated into the fixing stage of print development to increase the rigidity of the gelatin in both film and paper emulsions.

By reinforcing the emulsion layer, it contributes to the archival quality of prints, ensuring that they withstand the test of time with minimal degradation.For those who are environmentally conscious, the Photographers' Formulary Ammonium Aluminum Sulfate is a wise choice. It is known for its low toxicity, making it a safer alternative for both the user and the environment, compared to other hardening agents.In summary, the Photographers' Formulary Ammonium Aluminum Sulfate is an indispensable tool for both amateur and professional photographers alike. Its ability to harden and preserve photographic prints without compromising image quality makes it a staple in the darkroom. Whether you're working on fine art photography or simply cherishing memories, this photographic hardener ensures that your prints remain pristine for generations to come.
