FIX HARDENER
ILFORD RAPID FIXER and ILFORD ILFOFIX II must
not be used with fix hardeners as they are not
compatible with them. If a fix hardener is required
then only ILFORD HYPAM fixer can be used. Add
ILFORD HYPAM HARDENER to turn HYPAM  into a
hardening fixer.
Generally for most applications modern camera
films are sufficiently hardened at manufacture.
Additional hardening from a fixer hardener is not
usually needed or recommended for processing in
spiral tanks, dishes/trays, deep tanks, rotary
processors, dip and dunk (hanger) machines and
short leader card processors, unless the processing
temperature is above 30ºC (86ºF), or poor drying
performance is being experienced. To minimise the
risk of physical damage a fixer hardener may be
needed when using a roller transport film
processor.
Using a fix hardener will require the recommended
fix and wash times to be extended. Depending on
the film and processing conditions the hardened
fix time will be between 4 and 10 minutes and the
subsequent wash time 10–20 minutes in running
water.
The amount of HYPAM HARDENER that can be
added to the fixer is dependant on the film and
process conditions used. In some processors the
full amount of hardener cannot be used as the fix
and wash times cannot be extended adequately. In
these circumstances we recommend starting with
the minimum amount of hardener to have some
effect. This is around 3–6 mls of hardener per litre
of working strength HYPAM used. This increases
the film hardness slightly but has a negligible effect
on the fix and wash efficiency. When fix and wash
times are restricted the maximum amount of
HYPAM HARDENER recommended is 10–20ml of
hardener per litre of working strength HYPAM
used. This higher amount gives a definite increase
to the hardness of the films processed and while
fixing and washing efficiency are reduced the films
will be adequately fixed and washed for most
purposes.
When fix and wash times can be extended the
maximum amount of HYPAM HARDENER needed
to achieve fully hardened films is 1 part to 40
parts working strength HYPAM i.e. 24 ml per litre.
Drying
To avoid drying marks, use a clean squeegee or
chamois cloth to wipe HP5 Plus film before
hanging it to dry. Dry HP5 Plus at 30–40°C/86-
104
o
F in a drying cabinet or at room temperature
in a clean dust-free area.
STORAGE
Store HP5 Plus in a cool (10–20°C/50-68
o
F), dry
place in its original packaging. 
Exposed film
Once exposed, process HP5 Plus as soon as
practical. Images on exposed but unprocessed film
will not degrade for up to several months when
stored as recommended.
Negatives
Store processed negatives in a cool (10–20°C/
50-68
o
F), dry place, in the dark. Suitable storage
sleeves include those made of cellulose triacetate,
Mylar or paper (pH6.5–7.5) or inert polyester.
