Abstract

Attempts were made to produce emulsions suitable for leather fatliquoring by using technical fatliquoring materials and essential oils. An investigation has shown that essential oils of Eucalyptus globulus or Lavandulae officinalis can be mixed with technical fatliquor materials resulting in stable fatliquoring emulsions, which can be disintegrated by adding electrolytes. The stability of emulsions depends on the sort of essential oil and technical fatliquoring product. The use of essential oil for leather fatliquoring did not disimprove properties of the finished leather.
