Description

Technical Field

[0002] Leather is a denatured, non-perishable animal skin obtained through physical and chemical processes such as depilation and tanning. It can be made into leather shoes, bags, clothes, sofas and other leather products, and has a wide range of applications. Cowhide, sheepskin and pigskin are the three main types of leather used for leather production. Cowhide has the characteristics of thick texture, high strength and strong durability, and is a high-quality choice for high-end leather goods, shoes and furniture.

[0003] By processing raw cowhide, it is transformed into durable and beautiful leather. The processing methods of cowhide mainly include depilation, degreasing, tanning and other steps. Among them, tanning is the core link, and commonly used methods include chrome tanning (accounting for more than 80%) and vegetable tanning. Chrome tanning uses chemicals such as chromium sulfate to give leather softness and heat resistance, but it will produce chromium-containing wastewater, there is a risk of heavy metal pollution, and the auxiliaries used are easy to remain in the leather, resulting in a bad smell of the finished product. Although the vegetable tanning method is environmentally friendly, it takes a long time and the finished product is hard, has poor air permeability, and is limited in applicability.

By repairing and buffing, the surface damage of the leather is effectively covered and polished, making the surface of the leather smoother and more uniform, laying a good foundation for subsequent processing and improving the grade of the leather.
