TENSYN OS is a power syntan that is radily soluble in cold and warm water. It is suitable for a wide range of application in the retannage of all types of chrome leather and in vegetable tanning. If used on its own, it produce almost white leather with a medium handle and medium light-fastness.
Fields of Application and Benefits.
1.Retannage of chrome leather: TENSYN OS 4%- 6% use.
Fineness of grain: The fine grain of chrome leather is basically retained because TENSYN OS has low astringency. This makes it suitable for all types of aniline leather too.

Soft handle, TENSYN OS maintains the tightness of grain but produces leather with a very soft handle.
3.Light Shades: TENSYN OS lightens leather considerably when used in combination with vegetable tanning materials . Its good dispersing action ensure s that vegetable and resin tanning materials penetrate the leather more deeply and evenly.

8.TENSYN OS has a moderate acid reserve. When used in conjunction with low acid vegetable tanning materials in the liquor system, it may be advisable to increase the acid reseve by adding 4-6 kg acetic aci(100%) or formic acid(85%) per 100kg TENSYN OS. This improves liquor exhaustion, fixation of the tanning materials and the colour of the leather.
