Adox XT-3 developer

Adox XT-3 developer

The Adox XT-3 developer is the most modern and environmentally friendly developer based on ascorbic acid. A well-balanced film developer based on ascorbic acid, producing negatives with high sharpness and very fine grain at full box speed. Free from hydroquinone and boric acid, yet with improved storage capacity compared to earlier ascorbic acid developer formulas.

The dissolution time has been reduced to just 2–3 minutes.

With Adox CAPTURA dust-binding technology, you can mix this chemical powder without inhaling chemical dust.

The development times and resulting curves are identical to Xtol produced and sold in aluminium compound bags prior to 2019.

Advantages over comparable working formulas such as Xtol, Excel, or LegacyPro Eco:

• Free from borates
• Biodegradable complexing agent
• No health risk from chemical dust during mixing
• Increased solubility
• Better shelf life
