Description
Summary:This study aimed to create nano vegetable tanning materials of acacia bark extract. The process started with size reduction of acacia bark (16.7 mm x 4.9 mm x 1.8 mm), followed by counter current extraction of acacia bark with water at 80ºC with 1:3 bark to water ratio in order to obtain extracts with density of 9-10ºBe. Drying was done with a spray dryer. Particle size of the resulting powders was measured with particle size analyzer. Planetary ball mill was used for 6 hours to obtain average particle size of 72.9 nm. A variety of vegetable tanning materials were applied in the vegetable tanning process with varied concentrations of 15, 20, and 25%. The use of 25% nano vegetable tanning material of acacia bark extract gave the best results compared to liquid extract of acacia bark and mimosa. The properties of the leather obtained were tensile strength of 27.04 kg/cm2, elongation at break of 50%, shrinkage temperature of 84oC, and degree of tannage of 79.65%.
