… GS powder) to achieve enhanced hydrothermal stability, durability, and resistance to environmental degradation as an alternative approach to Chrome tanning. Vegetable tannin reinforces crosslinking through hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions while phenolic ligand phloroglucinol enables chelation with Al³z , improving its affinity toward carboxyl and amine groups in collagen. FT-IR and MALDI-TOF characterisation techniques confirm the formation of PHO-AL. Hydrothermal shrinkage …
