… For collagen, the Kolmogorov test determined whether two curves originated from a common distribution, implying a shared degradation pattern with minor individual differences, thus providing strong support for the reproducibility of collagen degradation results …
Open original PDF… The dispersi on and fixation degree of collagen fiber network of leather tanned by the combination of degraded DAS and titanium -oxysulfate were the highest, and the tanning effect was the best.
Open original PDF… However, the actual extent and rate of degradation of leather are significantly influenced by the type of chemicals used in its manufacture. This study investigates the role of retanning agents—a factor not yet …
Open original PDF… The present study explores a hybrid tanning approach of Al(III)-phloroglucinol complex (PHO- AL) with vegetable tannin (GS powder) to achieve enhanced hydrothermal stability, durability, and resistance to environmental degradation as an alternative …
Open original PDF… The biodegradability of the pretanned/tanned leathers was assessed using ISO 20136, revealing a 94% degradation rate compared to non-tanned collagen—considerably higher than that achieved with conventional tanning methods. Additionally, compostability, as …
Open original PDF… Natural leather, primarily composed of collagen, is generally more biodegradable than synthetic alternatives like polyurethane (PU) or microfiber-based materials (Wang et al. 2024). However, the tanning process—designed to enhance leather’s durability …
Open original PDF… The ability of HGS to crosslink collagen in the tanning process was studied both at laboratory and pilot scale. The effi ciency of the newly synthesized products was demonstrated by micro-DSC (Carşote, 2016 …
Open original PDFTo achieve high-value utilization of tannery solid wastes, this study use cow hair and trimmings collected from beamhouse process, which are rich in keratin and collagen. By adjusting the proportion of these two …
Open original PDFThe use of vegetable tanning agents could be an alternative to synthetic tanning agents with regard to sustainability and reduction of fossil based materials in leather production. In recent years, a new group of …
Open original PDF… In this matter, to assess leather biodegradability according to the specific standard ISO 20136, INESCOP has developed and patented a fully automated smart technology capable of estimating leather degradation potential in just 30 days …
