Produktbeschreibung
Leather: From the Raw Material to the Finished Product is a comprehensive and authoritative guide that delves into every aspect of leather production, from the initial selection of raw hides to the final finishing processes. Authored by Wilhelm Knapp and translated by S. Wood, this classic work offers an in-depth exploration of the science, technology, and craftsmanship behind leather manufacturing. The book meticulously covers the various types of animal skins used, the methods of curing and preserving hides, and the intricate chemical and mechanical processes involved in transforming raw material into high-quality leather. Readers are introduced to the fundamental principles of tanning, including both vegetable and mineral tanning methods, and are guided through the detailed steps of liming, fleshing, bating, pickling, and tanning. The text also examines the machinery and tools essential to each stage of production, providing practical insights into their operation and maintenance. Special attention is given to the different classes of leather-such as sole, harness, upper, and glove leathers-highlighting the unique treatments and finishes required for each. In addition to the technical processes, the book addresses the challenges of quality control, the importance of water and chemical management, and the environmental considerations of leather production. Richly illustrated with diagrams and photographs, Leather: From the Raw Material to the Finished Product serves as both a historical document and a practical manual, making it an invaluable resource for students, professionals, and anyone interested in the art and science of leatherworking.
