About Photographers' Formulary Glycin

A professional-grade product, the Photographers' Formulary Glycin (N-Para-Hydroxyphenyl) is a high-quality, reliable, and innovative solution for photographers seeking effective and efficient fine-grain formulas. This product is commonly paired with para-phenylenediamine, making it an essential component in the creation of fine-grained negatives with a distinct gray-black color.

This Glycin variant is unique due to its non-staining properties and its ability to provide a clear working developer. It's important to note that while Glycin is almost insoluble in water, it dissolves readily in alkaline solutions, making it a versatile addition to any developer formula.

Due to its slow oxidation process, this product ensures clean working conditions, adding to its appeal for professional photographers. However, it's crucial to be aware that Glycin is highly sensitive to bromide and low temperatures. When combined with alkali carbonates, it creates slow-working developers that not only have excellent keeping properties but also yield low contrast results.

Please note that this product is distinct from glycocoll medicinal, sometimes referred to as glycine, and should not be confused with it. This 1lbs bulk offering of Glycin (N-Para-Hydroxyphenyl) is a testament to Photographers' Formulary's commitment to providing convenient, high-quality solutions for photographers.
