Powder & Liquid Chemistry
Nippon’s Black and White Powder and Liquid Chemistry (Approved by International Standards)
In a market where powder chemistry is being manufactured by poorly equipped industries, Nippon Photographics has a completely air-conditioned and dehumidified powder Mixing are where process conditions are at 23+ or – 2º C and 45% maximum which is a requisite by International Standards. Most manufacturers use manual methods of powder Mixing, resulting in a mixture of poor homogeneity and wide variations of quality in batch-to batch preparations. The sophisticated machinery meeting the standards of Konica Corporation, Japan at the Nippon factory ensures an evenly mixed homogeneous product that is longer lasting and of the best quality.
Nippon Graphic Arts Rapid Developer and Fixer are also Konica’s unique formulation with expensive, imported raw materials to give the best sensitometric results.
Nippon’s technical experts are constantly monitoring process variations arising out of improper mixing by educating the customer.Konica Corporation, Japan are the only manufacturers of 22” and 27” sec paper Printer Processors wherein the paper chemical developing time is as low as 27” and 22” sec respectively. Major manufacturers in India are manipulating a 45” sec Rapid Access chemistry designed for only 45” sec Noritsu 1201 and 1202 machine.
The Konica 53-N2 Bleach Replenisher boasts of super fast bleaching, completely eliminating any retained silver which would lead to improper fixing. The Konica 53-N3 Fixer Replenished is also
modified to suit faster fixing at optimum contrast. The Konica 52-N1 boasts of a super low replenishment rate of 30mm/36 exp. The Konica 52-N4 is non-toxic compared to conventional, cheap, super stabilizers. By using Konica negative chemicals you can see the difference in the densitometric readings.
It is technically incorrect to judge the density by exposing a part of the colour paper in the magazine rack just prior to leading in the printer processor. This is because the exposure of such an operation lacks uniformity and homogeneity thus giving an incorrect result. The performance of any chemistry can only be judged by the use of appropriate control strips, processed accurately and their density measured on accurate densitometers.
