Comparative determination of physical and fastness properties of garment leathers tanned with various tanning materials for leather skirt production

In the present study,physical and fastness properties of the leathers,which are obtained from two different tanneries,similarly processed in each tannery however,differentiated from each other by tanning with chromium,vegetable and chromium-vegetable combinations and planned to be used in skirt manufacture were determined with various quality control and analysis methods and evaluated by considering their field of use. additionally it was statistically investigated whether there is a significant difference between the physical characteristics of leather depending on the type of tanning material used. consequently,it was deduced that the type of tanning material used in leather production has statistically significant effect on the physical characteristics of the leathers which are produced from the same origin.
