Résumé : |
There are an abundance of hydrophilic groups in the collagen fibers in leathers. Because the affinity between these hydrophilic groups and water molecules varies with changes in temperature and relative humidity, leathers will adsorb or de-adsorb water as these factors change; affecting strength, permeability, and thermal stability. Retanning is a key operation in leather making with the purpose of retanning is to obtain leathers with some special characteristics. The water content in leathers, often 15-20 wt%, is an amount that cannot be neglected. However, few reports are found on the interactions between collagen and water, particularly the influence of retanning on the interaction between water and collagen fibers. The state that water molecules exist in collagen fibers, the mechanism for collagen fibers to adsorb water, the de-adsorption kinetics for water molecules to escape from collagen fibers, and the influence of retanning on the adsorption of water on collagen fibers need to be studied to improve the leathermaking technology for controlling the structure and behaviors of leathers. In this study, after being chrome tanned, collagen fibers were retanned with chrome, glutaraldehyde, TGR retanning agent (proprietary acrylic based), and wattle extract, respectively, to obtain different retanned samples. The water adsorption isotherms of the samples were determined by using a gravimetric method, by which the influence of retanning on the equilibrium water adsorption capacity and the influencing mechanism were evaluated. Different retanned samples varied in water adsorption characterization and equilibrium adsorption capacity. The TGR retanning increased the equilibrium adsorption capacity, while glutaraldehyde retanning decreased it; likely related to differences in retanning mechanisms. For different relative humidity environments, leathers should be retanned with different retanning agents to get an optimum property. Based on the adsorption characterization and the equilibrium adsorption capacity for the samples, different mathematics models were used to describe the adsorption process and the adsorption mechanism. Six models were chosen to fit the experimental data, and it was found that the Bradley model was the best to describe the adsorption. |
