One of the Kallitype developers given by Russ Young in his article on
kallitype in Coming into Focus is a 20% sodium citrate solution. I
have used this developer and found it to be a fast working and easy
to clear formula, providing one stays within the capacity limits of
the solution. In a note in the article Russ mentions that it is
possible to make sodium citrate by neutralizing a solution of citric
acid with sodium carbonate. Unfortunately the editors left out Russ'
directions for carrying out this operation. Any chemists out there
able to shed some light on how to do this?
