Résumé : |
In the present investigation the effect of two drying alternatives is analyzed on a fine garment leather. Natural hang drying is compared to tumble forced convection drying. The project is of interest due to the extended drying time under a high humidity environment which demands a high inventory of skins and a long overall manufacturing process time. The two drying processes deliver leather pieces of different characteristics, consequently, the physical and subjective properties of the products are compared.
The forced convection drying process is set up for the conditions that best maintain the quality of the leather compared to the natural convection drying process. The results show that tumbler drying causes a greater area contraction with respect to natural hanging drying; however, a more pliable leather is obtained, optimal for a garment leather application with suitable elasticity. Both drying alternatives are acceptable when the physical properties are compared, both passing the standards required for a garment leather application. The humidity is also analyzed at the exit of the tumbler drying equipment to obtain a moisture curve that helps to define the moment at which the leather reaches an appropriate humidity so that the drying process can be stopped. |
