albumen paper (printing-out paper, photographic paper, ... Materials (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Albumen paper was a widely used photographic printing material from about 1850-1890, when it was superseded by silver gelatin paper. Invented by Louis Desiré Blanquart and presented to the French Academy of Sciences in 1850. Manually coated sheet by sheet with egg white combined with a small amount of salt, when dried, the coated paper was sensitized by the user by floating on a silver nitrate solution. After exposure to sunlight under a negative, the image would be gold-toned and fixed with sodium thiosulphate. The last commercial production of albumen paper is believed to have been in 1929.

Additional Notes:
Dutch ..... Albuminepapier was een algemeen gebruikt fotoafdrukmateriaal uit ongeveer 1850-1890. Na die periode ging men over op zilvergelatinepapier. Het proces is uitgevonden door Louis Desiré Blanquart en in 1850 aan de Franse Academie van Wetenschappen gepresenteerd. Het papier werd vel voor vel met de hand gecoat met eiwit gecombineerd met een beetje zout. Wanneer het droog was, werd het door de gebruiker gevoelig gemaakt door het te laten drijven op een zilvernitraatoplossing. Na blootstelling aan zonlicht onder een negatief, werd de afbeelding goudgetoond en gefixeerd met natriumthiosulfaat. Waarschijnlijk is albuminepapier in 1929 voor het laatst commercieel geproduceerd.
