Examples
Embodiment 1
[0084] The hides and / or leathers to be tanned are provided in 3000 mL of water (hereinafter referred to as aqueous tanning liquor) in a suitable container with the pH adjusted to 7.5 to 8.5 and at a temperature of 25°C.
[0085] 4.5% by weight of an acetal of an aldehyde tanning agent, such as glutaraldehyde, is then added to the aqueous tanning liquor. Here the acetals are prepared as described in US 2,885,443 and / or US 4,448,977.
[0086] In the penetration step, for example in a rotatable drum provided for this step, the acetal-laden tanning liquor is applied to the hide and / or leather. The exposure time can be freely selected, eg depending on the hide and / or leather thickness. The thicker the hide and / or leather, the longer the exposure time should be chosen in order to achieve sufficient penetration of the acetal into the deeper layers of the hide. For example the duration of action may be between 2 and 7 hours. The preferred duration of action here is 5 hours.

Embodiment 2
[0093]The hides and / or leathers to be tanned are provided in 3000 mL of water (hereinafter referred to as aqueous tanning liquor) in a suitable container with the pH adjusted to 3.0 to 3.2 and at a temperature of 25°C. In the method according to example 2, unlike example 1, no penetration step (in which the aldehyde tanning agent in the form of acetal first acts on the hide and / or leather without reacting with the protein) is provided.
[0094] 2.1% by weight of an acetal of an aldehyde tanning agent, such as glutaraldehyde, is then added to the aqueous tanning liquor. Due to the low pH of the tanning liquor, aldehydes, for example in the form of glutaraldehyde, are released directly and can react with the hide and / or leather proteins. This step thus corresponds to the actual tanning step. The released aldehyde is then applied to the hide and / or leather, for example in a rotatable drum. A suitable action time here may be between 3 hours and 7 hours, preferably 5 hours.
