Borrebright
Borrebright is a light coloured lignosulfonate, derived from lignin; the natural binder of wood fibres in trees. It can be used as dispersant and tanning agent in the leather industry. It improves tanning efficiency, penetration and uniformity of vegetable and synthetic tanning agents.
Borrebright is stable and functional over a pH range from 1 to 13.
