1 .
To convert (
the skin of an animal )
into leather ,
as by usual process of steeping it in an infusion of oak or some other bark ,
whereby it is impregnated with tannin ,
or tannic acid (
which exists in several species of bark ),
and is thus rendered firm ,
durable ,
and in some degree impervious to water .
[
1913 Webster ]
Note :
The essential result in tanning is due to the fact that the tannins form ,
with gelatins and albuminoids ,
a series of insoluble compounds which constitute leather .
Similar results may be produced by the use of other reagents in place of tannin ,
as alum ,
and some acids or chlorides ,
which are employed in certain processes of tanning .
