I'm about to replenish my supply of Hydroquione purchased from Photographers Formulatry. To purchase it locally I can shop at Adorama but they list Photographers Formulary Hydroquione as Residual Hydroquione. I cannot find Residual Hydroquione at the Photographers Formulary site and wonder if I may be getting something I need to adjust my formulae for?
What is the difference between Residual Hydroquione and Hydroquione?
Its the first I've hear of it as well. Perhaps its a process term in the way its made. There may be a way that they process hydorquinone directly and another way in which it is a by-product of a different reaction, and thereby gets the term 'residual'. Just speculation though....
Well, I went into Adorama and searched Hi and Low for "Residual" Hydroquione and could only find Hydroquione.
I had a printout of their web page showing "Residual" and the clerk said "I have no idea what residual hydroquione is. We only sell plain hydroquione."
