Factory Price Basic Chrome Sulphate/Basic Chromic Sulfat for Leather

Basic Chromium Sulfate is an inorganic compound with the molecular formula Cr(OH)SO ₄ , usually an amorphous dark green powder or flake, soluble in water, highly hygroscopic, mainly used in leather tanning and also as a mordant in the printing and dyeing industry, etc.

(1) Leather tanning: It is the most important use. As a tanning agent, it can convert raw hides into tough and corrosion-resistant leather, improving the stability and durability of leather, and is a commonly used tanning material in the leather industry.

(2) Printing and dyeing industry: It can be used as a mordant to help dyes adhere better to fabrics and enhance dyeing effects and fastness.

(3) Other fields: It is also used in the preparation of certain catalysts, metal surface treatment, etc., and can be used to prepare other chromium salt compounds.

(1) Tanning function: In leather processing, it can combine with the active groups of skin collagen, stabilize the protein structure, make raw hide lose solubility and swelling, and transform into leather with certain strength, elasticity and corrosion resistance.

(2) Mordant function: In printing and dyeing, it can form stable complexes with dyes and fibers, enhance the adhesion of dyes to fibers, and improve the uniformity and color fastness of dyeing.

(3) Auxiliary function in chemical synthesis: As an intermediate, it can participate in the preparation of other chromium salts, or play a role in regulating reactions and promoting combination in catalyst synthesis and metal surface treatment.
