detenedores

español al inglés Arte/Literatura Fotografía/Imagen (y artes gráficas)
On a series of works by a contemporary Argentine photographer:

Después de exponer y velar papeles, la acción se limita al laboratorio, y se concreta en la transformación de los papeles sensibles en la medida en que son sumergidos en líquidos reveladores, detenedores y fijadores. Pura reacción química y materialidad fotográfica: mares, cordilleras o paisajes marcianos son ficciones tan (i)legítimas unas como otras.

stop baths

So, in this context, you have the developer, the stop bath, the fixer and then the wash. I don't think you'd call it a stop liquid or fluid.

1. The film may be soaked in water to swell the gelatin layer, facilitating the action of the subsequent chemical treatments.
2. The developer converts the latent image to macroscopic particles of metallic silver.[3]
3. A stop bath,† typically a dilute solution of acetic acid or citric acid, halts the action of the developer. A rinse with clean water may be substituted.
4. The fixer makes the image permanent and light-resistant by dissolving remaining silver halide. A common fixer is hypo, specifically ammonium thiosulfate.[4]
5. Washing in clean water removes any remaining fixer. Residual fixer can corrode the silver image, leading to discolouration, staining and fading.[5].

stop bath

Also known as a "baño de paro".

"El baño de paro es un baño químico que se realiza sobre el material sensible, película o papel fotográfico, como parte de su proceso de revelado. Tiene una doble finalidad: ***detener la acción del revelador*** y evitar la contaminación y acortamiento de la vida útil del fijador.
