A process for the finish dressing of leathers dressed by a mineral or a combined method, by treatment with an aqueous solution of water soluble polymer dressing substances that are polymers of unsaturated monomers that contain sulfonic groups. These polymers contain, if necessary, additional basic units that do not affect the water solubility, these being derived from the comonomers that can be copolymerized with the monomers that contain the sulfonic groups and which do not contain phosphorus.

Process for finish dressing minerally dressed leathers or those dressed

The invention relates to a process for improving the lightfastness of conventionally dyed leathers by treating the leathers before, during or after fatting with alkane and/or chloroalkane sulfonamides in amounts of about 0.1 to 8 weight percent, based on the shaved weight of the leather. Used as alkane sulfonamides and chloroalkane sulfonamides are preferably products with a chain length of about 10 to 35 carbon atoms and a chlorine content of about 10 to 40%. The alkane and/or chloroalkane sulfonamides are advantageously used in aqueous solution or in stable emulsion. A substantial improvement in lightfastness is obtained regardless of the type of the dye, tanning agent, fatting agent or other leather treating agent used.

Process for improving the lightfastness of conventionally dyed leather

As a leather fatting agent a solution, emulsion or dispersion of a pulverulent, free-flowing form product derived from a substance having a liquid or pasty consistency, especially fatty, oil and waxy substances, especially those prepared by drying aqueous solutions or dispersions containing these substances together with carrier compositions having the dry weight analysis of from 0.1 to 35% inorganic or organic salts, 0.1 to 90% albumin or albumin derivatives and 0.1 to 70% of mono-, oligo- or poly-saccharides or derivatives thereof; a method of fatting a leather which comprises contacting said leather with a solution, dispersion or emulsion of a free-flowing pulverulent product derived from a substance having a liquid or pasty consistency, especially fatty, oily and waxy substances and especially those substances prepared by drying an aqueous solution or dispersion containing the same, together with a carrier composition having the dry weight analysis set forth above in respect of inorganic or organic salts, albumin or albumin derivatives and mono-, oligo- or poly-saccharides or derivatives thereof.
