Hello,
Sodium Borate (Borax) and Sodium Metaborate (Kodalk) are different reagents. Nevertheless I have seen an indistinct use of those in the “same” formula. For instance, the divided D23 development the second solution is sometimes referred to use a solution of Borax and sometimes of Kodalk. Would they be really interchangeable in photography? Same weight or is there a conversion factor? Could anybody clarify that?
Thanks in advance.
