Alkaline Bate

Additional Details

Popbate-ALK is an enzymatic bating agent which works in alkaline range. Popbate-ALK is a versatile bating agent based on proteolytic enzymes for all types of leather. This is an optimal blend of proteolytic enzymes from animal and microbial sources. The tailor-made formulation has also lipolytic side activities which help in removing the fatty tissues adhering to the skin and thus facilitating an optimum bating action.

Advantages :

Popbate-ALK ensures efficient loosening of scud consisting of short hairs, grease, lime soaps, dark coloured pigments and traces of epidermis, resulting in a fine and silky grained leather.

POPBATE-ALK has proteolytic enzymes which ensure optimal removal of non-leather forming proteinaceous material like albumin, globulins and mucoids from the hides and skins.

Popbate-ALK gives a more elastic grain without increasing the “loose grain“ tendency.

Popbate–ALK slackens the hide structure gently without causing excessive decomposition of the flanks.

Popbate-ALK gives good scud loosening, smooth grains, even in strongly “fallen” pelts. For improved scud loosening special auxiliary agents may be additionally used.
