Résumé : |
Various factors control the quality of the raw materials (hides/skins) used for leather processing. Leathers made from such varied quality of raw materials also have very varied grading. Leathers of higher grades are processed conventionally and finished to the desired effect and the required end product. However, processing and manufacturing of lower grade leathers and improving their properties to make them more useful for high quality products is a big challenge for the leather industry. Conventional up-grading of low quality leathers is brought about by surface modifications. However, such surface modifications significantly affect the natural look of the leathers and hence find use in products applications of low value. This study attempted to improve the grade of the leathers by suitably modifying the post tanning operations without affecting the natural feel of the leathers. One of the major defects, thin substance, has been selected for up-grading. The post tanning auxiliaries have been selected so as to enhance the substance of the leather. Different types of leathers (upper, glove and lining) were made from thin substance raw material. The physical strength properties of these leathers match that of the conventionally processed leathers. The organoleptic properties of the leathers made in this study are also on par with that of the conventional leathers. The cost of chemicals can be easily offset with the additional value realized by following this process of up-grading. |
