Abstract

The suitability of a combined tanning system comprising zinc salts and an organic tanning agent as an alternative to chromium compounds was considered. The structure of the organic tanning agent synthesized on the basis of formaldehyde and ethanolamine was identified by IR spectroscopy. The effect of the zinc salts on the viscosity and pH of the tanning solution was evaluated. Different capacities of zinc acetate and zinc sulfate to interact with the organic tanning agent with formation of complexes were shown. The results obtained were confirmed by photometry. A probabilistic structural formula was proposed for the resulting complex. The conductometric method was employed to evaluate the change in the electrical conductivity of the aqueous solutions of zinc acetate and zinc sulfate in the presence of amino acids with various functional groups in the side chain. The effect of the salt anion on the ability to form complexes with different ligand coordination geometries of the central zinc atom as dependent on the type of amino acid was shown. The maximum yield of the complex was estimated basing on the deviation of the experimental dependence of the electrical conductivity from the calculated additive values at different amino acid to zinc salt ratios. A beneficial effect produced by gelatin pretreatment with the organic tanning agent on cellulose membrane sorption of the zinc salts from the aqueous solutions was revealed. It was shown that zinc sulfate was more intensively sorbed by gelatin after treatment with the organic tanning agent, and an interpretation to this effect was provided. The obtained data were validated in a real tanning process which demonstrated an increase in the hydrothermal stability of dermal collagen, achieved via sequential treatment with the organic tannin and zinc salts.
