The formula for TF3 Alkaline Fixer at http://www.jackspcs.com/tf3.htm lists Ammonium Thiosulfate as the main ingredient, along with a bit of Sodium Sulfite, Sodium Metaborate, and water.
Are the Sodium Sulfite and Sodium Metaborate present to act as stabilizers or buffering agents - to preserve the life of stock solution ?
If so, could we use just the Ammonium Thiosulfate alone - diluted appropriately - as a one shot formula ?
