Silver Gelatin Emulsion Makers

very long addition time

#1
Have any of you ever tried to make emulsion but with very long addition time? I mean 5 hours or so.

Not I. I don't have that kind of patience :smile:whistling:smile: but I'd love to hear about someone else's results. The outcome would depend on the recipe. Probably couldn't be one with ammonia. Temperature would matter.
A very long ripening time was once common practice. I've never tried that, either. Longest I've gone is an hour and a half.
There are a hundred-plus recipes and ideas out in the literature. It would be a fun project to try them all.
