The present disclosure relates to the technical field of tanning agents for leather and fur, and in particular to a light-colored polycarboxylated polysaccharide tanning agent, and a preparation method and use thereof.
Polysaccharide is a macromolecular compound formed by linking more than ten monosaccharides through glycosidic bonds, which is widely available, renewable, safe, non-toxic, and cheap, and thus is an ideal raw material for preparing an ecological tanning agent. When a polysaccharide is under the strong oxidation of an oxidant such as hydrogen peroxide, hydroxyl in sugar units will be oxidized into carboxyl and glycosidic bonds will be broken. Therefore, products of deep oxidative degradation of polysaccharides can be used in combination with non-chrome metal salts for leather or fur tanning.
In documents (Yu, Y, Wang, Y. N., Ding, W., et al. Effect of catalyst on structure of hydrogen peroxide oxidized starch and its performance as a ligand in zirconium tanning of leather, Fine Chemicals, 2018, 35 (11): 1928-1934; and Yu, Y., Wang, Y. N., Ding, W., et al. Preparation of highly-oxidized starch using hydrogen peroxide and its application as a novel ligand for zirconium tanning of leather, Carbohydrate Polymer, 2017, 174, 823-829), a method for preparing a deeply-oxidized starch through catalytic oxidation of a starch at a high temperature (70° C. to 98° C.) and a large hydrogen peroxide amount (60 wt %) is reported. A product obtained by this method has a dark color, and thus will affect the color and appearance of a leather or fur when used for tanning, which limits its application in the manufacture of chrome-free leathers. Chinese patent CN107119154B “Preparation method of broad-range multifunctional polysaccharide-based ligand-metal complex tanning agent” discloses a method for preparing an oxidized polysaccharide through catalytic oxidation at a high temperature (120° C. to 160° C.), a high pressure (0.2 MPa to 0.6 MPa), and a high hydrogen peroxide amount (40 wt % to 100 wt %), which has the problem that the high temperature and high pressure conditions are more likely to promote the formation of colored substances. In the document (Wang, X. C., Li, F. H., Qiang, T. T., et al. The preparation of high-oxidized starch and its properties of tannage, Leather Science and Engineering, 2013, 23 (2): 5-8) and the Chinese patent CN102747173B “Preparation method of aluminum-oxidized Starch Complex Tanning Agent”, a method for preparing a deeply-oxidized starch through catalytic oxidation of a starch with concentrated nitric acid and ammonium metavanadate under heating is reported, and a deeply-oxidized starch obtained is also rich in colored substances and has a dark color. The oxidized polysaccharide has a dark color because the polysaccharide will be degraded under strong oxidation to produce monosaccharide compounds such as glucose, the monosaccharide compounds will be dehydrated and converted into furfural compounds under heating or weak acid conditions, and the furfural compounds will further self-polymerize or polymerize with the oxidized polysaccharide to form colored substances.
In order to solve the problems in the background art, the present disclosure provides a light-colored polycarboxylated polysaccharide tanning agent, and a preparation method and use thereof. The light-colored polycarboxylated polysaccharide tanning agent prepared by the method of the present disclosure has a light color, and will not adversely affect a color of a tanned leather or fur when used in combination with a non-chrome metal salt.
In order to achieve the above objective, the present disclosure adopts a first technical solution:

Further, the organic solvent may be any one or more from the group consisting of tetrahydrofuran (THF), ethyl acetate, and methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK).
Further, the polysaccharide may be any one from the group consisting of starch, dextrin, cellulose, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC-Na), and sodium carboxymethyl starch (CMS-Na).
Further, the catalyst may be any one or more from the group consisting of copper sulfate, ferrous sulfate, and ferric sulfate.
Further, the light-colored polycarboxylated polysaccharide tanning agent may further include a neutral salt at a weight accounting for 0 wt % to 30 wt % of the weight of the polysaccharide; and the neutral salt may be any one or more from the group consisting of sodium chloride, potassium chloride, sodium sulfate, and potassium nitrate.
Further, the light-colored polycarboxylated polysaccharide tanning agent may have a carboxyl content of 5.2 mmol/g to 13.1 mmol/g, a weight-average molecular weight of 350 g/mol to 6,000 g/mol, and a chromaticity of 1 to 50.
The present disclosure adopts a second technical solution:
A preparation method of the light-colored polycarboxylated polysaccharide tanning agent is provided, including:
preparing a polysaccharide aqueous solution with a concentration of 20% to 60%;
adding the catalyst, the organic solvent, and the hydrogen peroxide to the polysaccharide aqueous solution, and conducting an oxidation reaction at 50° C. to 90° C. for 0.5 hours to 4 hours to obtain an oxidized polysaccharide solution; and
adding the neutral salt to the oxidized polysaccharide solution, thoroughly stirring, allowing a resulting mixture to stand for 30 min such that an aqueous phase and an organic phase are fully separated, and discarding the organic phase with colored substances to obtain the light-colored polycarboxylated polysaccharide tanning agent.
The present disclosure adopts a third technical solution:
Use of the light-colored polycarboxylated polysaccharide tanning agent according to the first technical solution or a light-colored polycarboxylated polysaccharide tanning agent prepared by the method according to the second technical solution in leather or fur tanning is provided.
Further, the leather or fur tanning may include the following steps:
placing a pickled fur obtained by a conventional process in a drum, adding 80 wt % to 200 wt % of a pickling liquor, 4 wt % to 21 wt % of a non-chrome metal salt, and 1 wt % to 4 wt % of the polycarboxylated polysaccharide tanning agent based on a weight of the pickled fur, and allowing the drum to rotate for 2 hours to 6 hours; and adjusting a pH to 3.8 to 4.5 with magnesium oxide or sodium bicarbonate, adjusting a temperature to 40° C., and allowing the drum to rotate for 2 hours to obtain a tanned leather, where the polycarboxylated polysaccharide tanning agent is added at an amount calculated based on a content of effective substances in the tanning agent; or
placing a pickled fur obtained by a conventional process in a drum or a paddle, adding 400 wt % to 600 wt % of a pickling liquor based on a weight of the pickled fur, and 13 g/L to 32 g/L of a non-chrome metal salt and 2 g/L to 6 g/L of the polycarboxylated polysaccharide tanning agent based on a volume of water added, and allowing the drum or the paddle to rotate or paddle for 2 hours to 8 hours; and adjusting a pH to 3.6 to 4.2 with magnesium oxide or sodium bicarbonate, adjusting a temperature to 40° C., and allowing the drum or the paddle to rotate or paddle for 2 hours to obtain a tanned fur, where the polycarboxylated polysaccharide tanning agent is added at an amount calculated based on a content of effective substances in the tanning agent.
Further, the non-chrome metal salt may be any one or more from the group consisting of aluminum sulfate, zirconium sulfate, and titanium sulfate.
The principle that the present disclosure can prepare the light-colored polycarboxylated polysaccharide tanning agent is as follows: An organic solvent similar in structure or polarity to furfural substances is added to an aqueous phase to form a two-phase solution system, such that small-molecule furfural substances produced during a reaction can be rapidly dissolved in an organic phase, while an oxidized polysaccharide is dissolved in the aqueous phase, which timely blocks the polymerization of the small-molecule furfural substances with the oxidized polysaccharide to form macromolecular colored substances. Then, the aqueous phase and the organic phase are separated, and the organic phase with the small-molecule furfural substances and polymers thereof is discarded, such that a decolorization effect is achieved and the light-colored polycarboxylated polysaccharide tanning agent can be obtained.
The light-colored polycarboxylated polysaccharide tanning agent of the present disclosure is prepared in a two-phase solution system, where a catalytic oxidation system composed of a catalyst and hydrogen peroxide can achieve deep oxidative degradation on a polysaccharide, such that the polycarboxylated polysaccharide tanning agent has sufficient carboxyl to coordinate with a non-chrome metal salt, and has a molecular weight low enough to ensure that the tanning agent can uniformly penetrate into the fur. More importantly, the organic solvent can efficiently extract colored substances produced during an oxidation reaction, such that the polycarboxylated polysaccharide tanning agent has a light color and will not adversely affect a color of a tanned leather or fur.
Compared with the prior art, the present disclosure has the following beneficial effects:
The light-colored polycarboxylated polysaccharide tanning agent provided by the present disclosure significantly reduces a chromaticity of an oxidized product. The preparation method of the light-colored polycarboxylated polysaccharide tanning agent provided by the present disclosure adopts a two-phase solution system. Compared with the existing preparation technologies for oxidized polysaccharide tanning agents, the preparation method of the present disclosure can efficiently extract and remove colored substances produced during an oxidation process, and can timely block a polymerization reaction of the colored substances with an oxidized polysaccharide, such as to significantly reduce a chromaticity of an oxidized product.
The catalytic oxidation system composed of a catalyst and hydrogen peroxide used in the present disclosure can ensure that the oxidized polysaccharide has a sufficient carboxyl content (5.2 mmol/g to 13.1 mmol/g), and shows excellent coordination capability with non-chrome metal salts, such that the oxidized polysaccharide tanning agent has excellent application effects in leather or fur tanning.

Table 1 Comparison of carboxyl content, weight-average molecular weight, and chromaticity among the oxidized starch tanning agents
It can be seen from Table 1 that the carboxyl content and weight-average molecular weight of the oxidized starch tanning agent provided in Example 1 of the present disclosure are relatively close to that of the tanning agent prepared by the method provided in Comparative Example 1, but the chromaticity is far lower than that of the tanning agent in Comparative Example 1. It indicates that the organic solvent can effectively remove the colored substances in the solution without affecting an oxidation degree of the polysaccharide, thereby significantly reducing the chromaticity of the tanning agent. In addition, the carboxyl content of the oxidized starch tanning agent provided by the present disclosure is significantly higher than that of the tanning agents prepared in Comparative Examples 2 and 3, while the weight-average molecular weight is significantly lower than that of the tanning agents prepared in Comparative Examples 2 and 3, such that the oxidized starch tanning agent of the present disclosure can effectively coordinate with non-chrome metal salts and uniformly penetrate into the fur to play a tanning role.
