Leather is produced by a multi-step process among which the tanning phase is the most
relevant, transforming animal skin collagen into a stable, non-putrescible material used to …

Collagen-based composite materials are extensively studied and used in different fields,
including tissue engineering, food applications and leather manufacture. Leather is the …

This investigation was focused on evaluating the utilization of Leather-waste, ie,“Leather
Shavings”, to develop “Poly (ethylene-vinyl-acetate)”(EVA) based “polymer matrix …

Porous structures are essential for some collagen-based biomaterials and can be regulated
by crosslinkers. Herein, dialdehyde carboxymethyl cellulose (DCMC) crosslinkers with …

The oxidation of starch into valuable chemicals holds great promise for the leather industry,
but the catalytic efficiency of existing reactions is low. Moreover, residual catalyst in the …

This review focuses on the SAXS and WAXS analysis of the collagen structure of leather,
from pioneering works through to recent developments. X‐ray scattering can be used to …

Formaldehyde was detected in dialdehyde carboxymethyl cellulose (DCMC) tanning agent
prepared through periodate oxidation of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) …

Currently, chromium-containing wastewater from tanning process has seriously restricted
the sustainable development of the leather industry. This problem can be solved by high …

There is a substantial loss of value in bovine leather every year due to a leather quality
defect known as “looseness”. Data show that 7% of domestic hide production is affected to …

Abstract The octa (aminopropylsilsesquioxane)(POSS–NH 2) was synthesized by hydrolytic
and condensation of γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane in isopropyl alcohol solvent with …
