Producing Soft Leather, Consistently

摘要

With a reduced availability of the traditional oils used for fatliquoring, lecithin has become an important raw material for all leathers, particularly ones that need extra softness. Lecithin, a vegetable oil, has been incorporated into fatliquors comparatively recently. It is now difficult to imagine how we could produce the required buttery feel without this product. However, lecithin fatliquors are different to normally used oils, as they need more carefully controlled emulsification.
