| Appearance |
White, deliquescent pellets or flakes Odorless |
| Uses |
High-energy accelerator or alkali sometimes used to activate low-energy developing agents (e.g. hydroquinone). Caustic alkalis are most often used where a powerful and quick-acting developer is required. Developers compounded with caustic alkali have poor keeping properties and are soon exhausted. |
| Chemical Formula | NaOH |
| Notes |
Store in a well-sealed bottle. Weigh it rapidly as it can pick up moisture from the air and change its weight. Cautions: Of all the chemicals commonly used in the black & white darkroom, this is perhaps the most caustic. It is the same chemical used in many commercial drain cleaners. |
| Weight | 1.1 oz / 30 g |
