<p>In the chrome-tanning of hides to produce leather wherein a hide is pickled, pretanned with a chromium (III) salt, and full tanned with a tanning mixture containing a chromium (III) salt, an acid-binding agent and a polycarboxylic acid or salt thereof, the improvement which comprises employing as said polycarboxylic acid or salt thereof at least 1.6 moles per mole of Cr2O3 in the chromium (III) salt employed for full tanning of an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid of 4 to 6 carbon atoms or an aromatic dicarboxylic or tricarboxylic acid containing 8 to 13 carbon atoms or a salt thereof, the total quantity of Cr2O3 employed in pretanning and full tanning ranging from 1.2 to 2% by weight of the hide, full tanning being carried out with up to 100% of the tanning liquor based on the weight of the hide to a final pH of the liquor of at least 3.6. Advantageously, a powder composition comprising additional chromium (III) salt, polycarboxylic acid or salt and acid-binding agent, preferably dolomite, is added after pretanning.</p> |
