摘要
Recently, increasing interests have been directed towards incorporating nanotechnologies into leather manufacturing, which offer cost-effective improvements in leather performances, as well as enabling the industry to meet stricter legislation regarding environmental safety. In order to guide the leather technologists and chemists worldwide, this article reviews state of the art related to existing nanotechnologies in leather manufacturing processes, including tanning, finishing and effluent treatment, over the past decade. The emphasis is placed on the mechanism by which nanotechnologies improve conventional processes, impressive performances of the resultant leather and possible obstacles that cloud technical development in this field. In the end, potential health and environment risks associated with the incorporation of nanotechnologies, which are particularly important for daily necessities such as leather but have been basically overlooked by many researchers involved, are also addressed.
