Abstrak: Chamois leather is a well known product, as it has specific uses for gasoline filtration, cleaning and drying of optical equipment, spectacles, mirror and vehicles. It can be produced by using rubber seed oil and oxidizing agent of sodium hypochlorite. The best oxidation time condition for tanning need to be applied in order to obtain good quality leather. The objectives of the research was to determine the best oxidation time condition for the tanning process. The experiment was carried out by tanning of goat pickle pelts for 4, 6, 8 hours of oxidation times inside the rotary drum and 1, 2, 3 days of oxidation times at a toggle dryer. This study shows that the chemical, physical and organoleptic properties of the leather met the quality requirements for the chamois leather. The best oxidation times for the process were 4 hours in the rotary drum and hang at toggle for 3 days. The chemical properties of the leathers were pH of 7.48, ash content of 1.99%, and oil content of 4.51%. Their physical properties were thickness of 0.7 mm, tensile strength of 30.20 N/mm2, elongation at break 178.09%, tear strength of 75.105 N/mm, and water absorption of 315.655% (2 hours) and 346.49% (24 hours). The organoleptic properties of the leathers, i.e. softness, colour and odour, were considered good to excellent.

Abstrak: Leather tanning using oil as the tanning agent has disadvantages, such as the time of oxidation which is takes a long time in about 9 days. Using sodium percarbonate as oxidizing agent in the tanning process, known to shorten the time into two days, eventhough, the high cost of sodium percarbonate was being obstacle in its use. Other oxidizing agents such as hydrogen peroxide and sodium hypochlorite may have the same function with sodium percarbonate, i.e. acceleration of the oxidation process. The objectives of this research were to investigate the influence of the oxidizing agents and their concentrations on the quality of chamois leather and to determine the best combination of type and concentration of oxidizing agents in the production process of chamois leather. The main research consisted of leather tanning using rubber seed oil, oxidation in drum with three types and concentrations of the oxidizing agents, measurements of physical, chemical and organoleptic properties of chamois leather. The results showed that the three types of the oxidizing agent could be used to accelerate the oxidation process in the manufacture of chamois leather. The type of oxidizing agent gave significant effect on shrinkage temperature, ash content, colour and odour of leather, while the oxidizing agent concentration significantly affected the colour and odour of chamois leather. The treatment of experiment selected based on the quality of leather was sodium hypochlorite with the concentration of 2%. Tanning by using this treatment produced chamois leather with the properties as follows: shrinkage temperature of 75.2oC, tensile strength of 30.5 N/mm2, elongation at break of 134.3%, tear strength of 86.2 N/mm, water absorption of 265% (2 hours) and 286% (24 hours), pH 6.56, oil content of 8.71%, ash content of 1.12%, softness of 8-9, colour of 7-8 and odour
