What processing stage remove the unexposed and undeveloped silver halides from the emulsion?FIXING. The acidic fixing solution removes the unexposed and undeveloped silver bromide crystals from the film emulsion and re-hardens the emulsion that has softened during the development process.
During which step of automatic film processing are the unexposed silver halide crystals removed from the film base?Fixing - Unexposed silver halide crystals are removed by the fixing bath. The fixer dissolves only silver halide crystals, leaving the silver metal behind. Washing - The film is washed with water to remove all the processing chemicals.
What removes unexposed silver halide?A clearing agent, also known as fixing agent, is the chemical that actually removed undeveloped silver halide crystals from the film. Sodium thiosulfate and ammonium thiosulfate are commonly used.
What is the chemical that removes the unexposed silver halide crystals on the film?A chemical solution known as the fixer is used in the fixing process. The purpose of the fixer is to remove the unexposed, unenergized silver halide crystals from the film emulsion. The fixer hardens the film emulsion during this process. Fixation time is 10-15 minutes, double the developing time.
