S
Synthetic Organic Tanning Agent |
Jktan
S can be generally used for retanning chromes leather.
The buffing properties of the leather are substantially
improved. |

Properties |
: |
Jktan
S is a water soluble powder. Its solution have a
neutral reaction and are anionic in nature. It is,
therefore, compatible with all conventional auxiliaries,
tanning agents, fatliquors and dyes carrying the same
charge. Metastable solutions are formed with mineral
tanning agents, the stability depending on the pH and
the concentration. Jktan S can, therefore, be readily
incorporated in the retannage under the usual conditions
adopted for systems of this kind.
Jktan
S penetrates deeply into the leather. It levels out
dyeings without rendering them paler to any large
extent. Moreover, the buffing properties of the leather
are substantially improved. |
Application |
: |
Jktan
S is primarily used for retanning full grain leather in
this application, its mildly neutralizing effect is
particularly beneficial, because the vegetable tannins
that are incorporated penetrate more deeply and exert a
stronger filling effect. Hence, they lead the grain
less than usual and thus give finer pores. |
Environment |
: |
Permits good exhaustion of dyes and fat liquors and thus
helps to reduce pollution by tannery effluents. |
Safety |
: |
We
know of no ill effects resulting from the use of Jktan S
for the purpose for which it is intended and in
accordance with current practice. |
