Discover the unparalleled purity and effectiveness of Photographers' Formulary 10g Borax, an essential chemical for the discerning photographer. This professional-grade, high-quality borax serves as a versatile agent in a variety of photographic processes, ensuring your work achieves the excellence you strive for.

As a mild alkali accelerator, our 10g Borax is perfect for enhancing fine-grain developers with low activity, providing the precise control needed for developing your photographic film and paper. Its reliable performance makes it a staple in certain fixing baths, where its properties help stabilize the chemical reaction for optimal results.

For photographers looking to add a touch of elegance to their work, our borax is also an indispensable component in gold toning baths. It renders the solution alkaline and accelerates the rate of gold deposition, allowing for exquisite tonal variations and archival quality.

Note that our borax is available in its most commonly used form for photographic formulas, the decahydrate, also known historically as crystalline. This form is synonymous with the well-known 20 Mule Team Borax, ensuring you are working with a product that has stood the test of time in both reliability and efficacy.
