10. A photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 1, wherein said solution contains methanol to serve as a solvent, a cleaner, a buffering agent and an intermediate compatibility agent.
11. A photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 1, wherein is included a chelating agent in said solution.
12. A photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 11, wherein said chelating agent comprises ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid, tetrasodium salt (EDTA Na
4).
13. A photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 1, wherein is included an enzyme.
14. A photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 13, wherein the enzyme is selected from the group comprising amylolytic and proteolytic enzymes.
15. In a photographic chemistry: a modified alkanolamide comprising cocamide diethanolamine in solution; a developer and a hydrotrope in solution with the modified alkanolamide.
16. In a photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 15, wherein is included a solvent in solution with the modified alkanolamide.
17. In a photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 15, wherein is included a developer selected from the group consisting of hydroquinone, p-Methylaminophenol sulfate and phenidone, said developer being in solution with the modified alkanolamide.
18. In a photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 15, wherein is included a number of alkalies selected from the group including sodium silfite, potassium carbonate, potassium silicate and potassium hydroxide, the alkalies being in solution with said modified alkanolamide.
19. In a photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 18, wherein said alkalies are in a pH range of 8 to 14.
20. In a photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 15, wherein is included an emulsion penetrant in solution with said modified alkanolamide.
21. In a photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 20, wherein said emulsion penetrant is dimethyl formamide.
22. In a photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 15, wherein is included a cleaner in solution with said modified alkanolamide.
23. In a photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 22, wherein the cleaner comprises diacetone alcohol.
24. In a photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 15, wherein is included a lubricant in solution with said modified alkanolamide, said lubricant being dimethylsulfoxide.
25. In a photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 15, wherein said solution contains methanol to serve as a solvent, a cleaner, a buffering agent and an intermediate compatibility agent.
26. In a photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 15, wherein is included a chelating agent in said solution.
27. In a photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 26, wherein said chelating agent comprises ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid, tetrasodium salt (EDTA Na
4).
28. In a photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 15, wherein is included an enzyme.
29. In a photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 28, wherein the enzyme is selected from the group comprising amylolytic and proteolytic enzymes.
30. In a photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 15, wherein said hydrotrope is sodium xylenesulfonate.
31. In a photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 15, wherein the hydrotrope is in said solution in the range of 0.01% to 50% of the solution.
32. In a photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 15, wherein is included a quantity of dimethyl sulfoxide in solution with said modified alkanolamide.
33. In a photographic chemistry as set forth in claim 32, wherein said solution contains methanol to serve as a solvent, a cleaner, a buffering agent and an intermediate compatibility agent.
