Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national Standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of
preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Esch member body interested in a subject for which
a technical committee has been established has the right to be
represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting
a vote.
International Standard ISO 422 was prepared by Technical Committee
lSO/TC 42, Photography.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 4221976)
which has been technically revised.

Introduction
0.1 This International Standard is one of a series that establishes criteria
of purity for chemicals used in processing photographic materials. General
test methods and procedures cited in this International Standard are
compiled in Parts 1, 4, 5 and 8 of ISO 10349.
This International Standard is intended for use by individuals with a
working knowledge of analytical techniques, which may not always be the
case. Some of the procedures utilize caustic, toxic or otherwise hazardous
chemicals. Safe laboratory practice for the handling of chemicals requires
the use of safety glasses or goggles, rubber gloves and other protective
apparel such as face masks or aprons where appropriate. Normal
precautions required in the Performance of any Chemical procedure are to
be exercised at all times but care has been taken to provide warnings for
hazardous materials. Hazard warnings designated by a letter enclosed in
angle brackets, < >, are used as a reminder in those Steps detailing
handling operations and are defined in ISO 10349-1. More detailed
information regarding hazards, handling and use of these chemicals may
be available from the manufacturer.
0.2 This International Standard provides Chemical and physical re-
quirements for the suitability of a photographit-grade Chemical. The tests
correlate with undesirable photographic effects. Purity requirements are
set as low as possible consistent with these photographic effects. These
criteria are considered the minimum requirements necessary to assure
sufficient purity for use in photographic processing solutions, except that if
the purity of a commonly available grade of Chemical exceeds photographic
processing requirements and if there is no economic penalty in its use, the
purity requirements have been set to take advantage of the availability of
the higher-quality material.
Every effort has been made to keep the
number of requirements to a minimum.
Inert impurities are limited to
amounts which will not unduly reduce the assay. All tests are performed
on samples “as received” to reflect the condition of materials furnished for
use. Although the ultimate criterion for suitability of such a Chemical is its
successful Performance in an appropriate use test, the shorter, more
economical test methods described in this International Standard are
generally adequate.
Assay procedures have been included in all cases where a satisfactory
method is available. An effective assay requirement serves not only as a
safeguard of Chemical purity but also as a valuable complement to the
identity test. Identity tests have been included whenever a possibility
exists that another Chemical or mixture of chemicals could pass the other
tests.
All requirements listed in clause 4 are mandatory. The physical appearance
of the material and any footnotes are for general information only and are
not part of the requirements.

0.3 Efforts have been made to employ tests which are capable of being
run in any normally equipped laboratory and, wherever possible, to avoid
tests which require highly specialized equipment or techniques. Instru-
mental methods have been specified only as alternative methods or alone
in those cases where no other satisfactory method is available.
Over the past few years, great improvements have been made in instru-
mentation for various analyses. Where such techniques have equivalent or
greater precision, they may be used in place of the tests described in this
International Standard. Correlation of such alternative procedures with the
given method is the responsibility of the User. In case of disagreement in
results, the method called for in the specification shall prevail. Where a
requirement states Yo pass test ”, however, alternative methods shall not
be used.
