DEF

Substance, généralement un colorant, qui réduit la capacité d'un matériel photosensible à réagir avec des rayons actiniques.

OBS

Un désensibilisateur idéal devrait réduire la sensibilité au maximum, tout en détruisant au minimum l'image latente.

OBS

La désensibilisation permet donc de développer une pellicule panchromatique sous l'éclairage inactinique normal de la chambre noire.
