Abstract In the present paper, multifunctional flower-like nanoparticles were synthesized to be used in leather finishing. They are capable of conferring simultaneously and synergistic antimicrobial, self-cleaning, light resistance, hydrophobic, mechanical, thermal, fluorescent properties due presence Ag, TiO 2 , SiO NPs. These form a “flower-like” structure which “pistil” is made up “petals” that surround it silver silica nanoparticles, whose dimensions order ten nanometers. Their surfaces...
The focus on the leather market has recently been rise due to global increase in demand for products, driven by rising disposable income levels and improving standards of living among expanding middle-class population. To enhance performance final product, we have employed nanoparticles (NPs) across various stages manufacturing. Specifically, finishing process─the ultimate stage production─numerous studies underscored significance Ag, TiO2, SiO2 NPs significantly enhancing characteristics...
Leather is a fully biobased material (100% biodegradable organic material, with collagen as the main constituent), derived from food industry byproducts (animal skin butchery), which represents an excellence for Italian (in last years production value reached 4.6 billion euros and export of 3.2 euros) highly sustainable material. However, its still strongly handicraft, traditional unfortunately based on employment toxic chemicals, such chromium glutaraldehyde. A deep knowledge tanning...
This study focuses on preparing and characterizing functionalized silver nanoparticle-based (Ag-F NPs) finishing agents for leather treatment. Ag-F NPs were synthesized through a ligand exchange process with citric acid, enhancing their dispersion stability in aqueous media. The nanoparticles incorporated into polyurethane- nitroemulsion-based formulations applied to ovine bovine via spray coating process. Morphological (SEM, TEM), structural (XRD), thermal (TGA), spectroscopic (FT-IR)...
Abstract Leather industry produces huge amounts of solid wastes. In the last decade, several methods for recovery and valorization these wastes were developed, mainly focused on extraction collagen using chemical methods. The extracted collagen, due to its poor quality, is mostly used in agriculture as a nitrogen source ingredient fertilizers. This study aims apply from leather tanned recently reported new process based enzymatic hydrolysis, filling agent low quality leather. Thanks can be...
Abstract The present study takes into account the consumer requirement of an even more massive use touch screen devices, where leather has to compete with modern textile fibers in terms technological performances, particular reference newest technologies for production conductive gloves and other kinds goods, like shoes, garments, others. Most known able provide materials a unique ability discharge static electricity conductivity comparable human body concern fibers. On hand, goal work is...
The uniformity of the colour in leathers for furnishing and automotive sectors is a particularly important feature, especially white or light-coloured articles, intended to high-end market; on these articles any alteration can be very visible unpleasant, with possible technical economic consequences producers. In previous study, we analysed causes behind formation some peculiar pink/salmon stains different kinds white/beige/light-coloured leather items, where focalized our attention TiO2...
