Hydrometer (1,000-1,100 g/cm3)
22,00€
Precision hydrometer calibrated for specific densities between 1,000 g/cm3 and 1,100 g/cm3
Silver nitrate baths used in the wet plate process are a 9% silver nitrate solution in distilled water. That means 90g of silver nitrate dissolved in one liter of distilled water. Once we prepare this mix, there is only one way to find out how much silver nitrate there is in the bath: we need to measure the specific density of the solution with a hydrometer.
A 9% silver nitrate bath has a specific density of 1,067g/cm3. If our bath has a lower density we will have to add silver nitrate to the mix

Nitrile glove box 100pcs.
The use of nitrile gloves is highly recommended for alternative processes because they don’t have talcum powder that might ruin your prints and they are more resistant to chemicals than latex gloves.
10ml syringes
0,70€
10ml syringe.
The syringes are ideal for measuring small amounts of liquids accurately without the use of pipettes, which are much more expensive. For example, to replenish ether and alcohol in the excess collodion to return it to the original proportions of the mixture.
As with the other bottles, funnels, etc. involved in the process, it is essential to use them for a single chemical to avoid cross-contamination.
20ml syringe
0,95€
20ml syringe.
The syringes are ideal for measuring small amounts of liquids accurately without the use of pipettes, which are much more expensive. For example, to replenish ether and alcohol in the excess collodion to return it to the original proportions of the mixture.

Cyanotype Kit 200ml
22,00€
The kit includes two 100ml bottles and two syringes to measure the right amount of each product. Solutions A and B are not sensitive to light until they are mixed together. They should only be mixed (on the ratio 1:1) right before applying them.
Cyanotype on Glass Kit 250ml
45,00€
The kit includes a flask containing the cyanotipe gelatin emulsion. it comes in a light-tight envelope. The content should be opened under a safety light. Instructions for applying the emulsion and processing the plates will also be provided.
