Description
Adox XT-3 Film Developer is based on ascorbic acid yielding full box speed negatives with high sharpness and very fine grain. XT-3 is hydroquinone-free and without boric acid content yet provides an improved storage capacity compared to earlier ascorbic-acid developer recipes.
The dissolving speed has been reduced to only 2-3 minutes. Adox CAPTURA dust binding technology lets you mix this powder chemical without inhaling harmful chemical dust.
The developing times and resulting curves are identical with XTOL.
Adox XT-3 Film Developer is sold in aluminum compound bags. This package will make 1 liter of stock solution good for developing 8-10 rolls.
Advantages over similar working recipes like Xtol, Excel or LegacyPro Eco:
- Free of borates
- Biodegradable Komplexer
- Not health risk through chemical dust while mixing
- Increased solubility
- Better keeping properties

Same as Kodak Xtol, however much easier to desolve plus Kodak Xtol has had a drop in quality in the last year.
