Looking for a chemical supply shop in singapore to purchase some chemical (powder form) to start mixing my own developer fix. Any idea where can I start? :dunno::dunno:
 

cathay and ruby has black and white chemicals. ruby has tetenal c-41 kit to develop negs also.

I'm actually looking for the actual compound breakdown and mix up my own Soup :p
 

ohhh. paiseh. i think shld have lah, maybe can ask science lab technicians, cos schools can get chemicals for science lab so sure have suppliers in sg. but if got controlled chemicals may be harder to obtain.
 

what chemicals you need?

i have sigma/merck accounts :X but i cannot order on individual basis
 

I would be interested in getting raw chemicals to mix film developer too, depending on the price.

Want to make D76, which requires:
metol
anhydrous sodium sulphite
hydroquinone
borax decahydrate

Any idea of the cost?
 

I don't think chemical companies in Singapore will sell
chemicals to individual. Chemistry labs need
licence to buy and store chemicals.
Chemicals from sigma-aldrich are costly.

Sigma-aldrich sell 100g of metol at around SGD90 w/o GST. It is very expensive,
better get the D76 powder from Ruby, cheaper.

Ouch. Thanks for the info and yes, D76 powder is very much cheaper.
 

Yeah, some of these ingredients are pretty expensive
Thanks for the link Glchua!

Let me reconsider this effort hahahah

I am working in a lab (Penang) and can get access to the metol and it is relatively cheaper than quoted above. I guess its something like RM300/500g. Let me check out again,
