AI Technical Summary
Existing chrome tanning methods have insufficient absorption rates of chrome tanning agents, leading to environmental pollution and resource waste. Furthermore, traditional chemical auxiliaries are complex to operate in practice, and the activity of enzyme preparations is easily affected, making them difficult to use effectively.
Pretreatment with cross-linking enzymes before tanning promotes the binding of chrome tanning agents to skin collagen and increases the absorption rate of chrome tanning agents by pre-acting on the functional groups of proteins in the skin.
It increases the absorption rate of chromium tanning agents by 5%-15%, reduces waste emissions, achieves clean production, is simple to operate, and is easy to apply in practice.
