Characteristics and tanning potential of Hagenia abyssinica tannin extracts and its possible use in clean leather production

Hagenia abyssinica, a tannin material, was employed for tanning the sheepskins into crust leathers and then compared its performance with the leather that was tanned with commercial mimosa. Characterizations of H. abyssinica extract revealed that it possesses condensed tannin having a pH: 4.7. Tanni...
