Abstract (en)

[origin: DE4242076A1] A tanning agent contains (A) as active tanning material an omega,omega'-dialdehyde of formula O=CH-(CH2)r-CH=O (I), opt. in deactivated form and (B) a polymer (P) contg. OH gps., from (a) 95-0 wt.% of monomers of formula R2HC=C(R1)-COOH (II), or of formula (II-a), b) 0-90% of monomers contg. OH gps. of formula CH2=C(R3)- C(O)-OR4 (III), (c) 0-100% of monomers of formula CH2=CH-O-C(O)-R5 (IV), and (d) 0-80% of monomers of formula CH2=C(R3)-COOR6. r = 2-8; R1 = H, Me or CH2COOH; R2 = H, Me, Ph or COOH; and (II) contains not more than 2 COOH; A = HC=CH or H2C=C-CH; R3, R'3 = H or Me; R4 = 1-12C (cyclo)alkyl with at least 1 OH; R5 = 1-2C alkyl; R6 = 1-12C (cyclo)alkyl. USE/ADVANTAGE - The tanning agent is used to prepare leather from unhaired hides, and in pickling, tanning or post-tanning. Self-condensation of the dialdehyde is prevented. The polymer, modified with the aldehyde, penetrates deeper into the skin, levels dyeing and gives easier paring. In a low-chrome post-tanning, distribution of chrome is more uniform.
