A question for any knowledgable chemists on the forum. Is TEA a suitable base for a Metol/Hydroquinone developer? Does anyone have a formula as such? From the MSDS of 99% TEA it states a 1% TEA solution [in water] has a pH of approx 10.
Is TEA inert as such until added to water? Would Metol or Hydroqinone dissolve in sufficient concentration?
I don't have Phenidone but do have Metol hence my desire to use this combination.
I know Pat gainer and Jay have made TEA based developers in the past. Both of which use Phenidone. Any thoughts would be good.
