Photographic processing chemicals in solid form containing the necessary active ingredients and auxiliary substances and in addition at least one compound corresponding to formula (I)

Photochemicals with reduced dust formation

Photographic processing chemicals in the form of granulates having an average particle diameter of from 150 to 3000 .mu.m containing a polymer having a molar mass of from 6,000,000 to 14,000,000 in a quantity from 1 to 1,000 mg/kg of granulate consisting of at least 80 mol % of one or more of the monomers, acrylamide, acrylic acid and cationic monomer or mixtures of acrylamide and cationic or anionic monomer are distinguished by being easy to prepare, dust free and freely pourable.

Granulated photochemicals

A process for processing a color photography silver halide recording material by development, bleach-fixing and stabilization or washing, wherein the silver halide emulsion layers of the photographic material have a chloride content of at least 80 mol %, the total processing time is not more than 60 seconds, the concentration of halide in the developing bath in the use state does not exceed 10.sup.-2 mol/l, the chloride content of the halide in the developing bath being at least 80 mol %, and the processing baths are replenished during continuous operation, provides results of good quality such as are otherwise obtained only by processing over a total period of at least 180 seconds.

Process for rapidly processing a color photography material

Container for active purifying agent for the purification of liquids, in particular photographic processing baths, comprising a container bottom above which is a space (2) for containing active purifying substance, a closure mechanism (5), an inlet tube (6) and a discharge tube (7) wherein a porous, compressible mass (4) is arranged between the space (2) for active purifying substance and the closure device (5).
