ZOLDINE™ ZE is a unique oxazolidine-based, fast-reacting crosslinking agent for collagen and casein, as well as vegetable tanning materials (condensed tannins). This versatility allows ZOLDINE ZE to be incorporated into many leather production processes, including pre-tanning, tanning, re-tanning and finishing, and it is an excellent candidate for formaldehyde replacement. ZOLDINE ZE improves processing and finished-leather properties when used in combination with other tanning materials, such as chromium sulfate, aluminum sulfate, vegetable extracts (such as mimosa), phenolic syntans and others.
