You might have heard the word ‘tannin’.
No? Well, it does sound very similar to ‘sun tanning’, terms which of course
you might be much more familiar with. However, what we will be talking here
about is the class of astringent, polyphenolic biomolecules,
which bind to and precipitate protein along with other organic compounds such
as amino acids and alkaloids. Someone who likes to drink wine would
probably have come across the term ‘wine tannins’, even though they may
not know its importance and usage in their drink. However, the applications of
this compound are many, which we shall understand soon.
The term ‘tannin’ comes from the usage of oak,
as well as other tree barks in ‘tanning’, which is the process of treating
the hides and skins of animals for producing leather, with the process being
carried out in a ‘tannery’. The extracts of this product are
characterized as a bitter-tasting, brown colored organic substance. They have
high oxidation properties, which prove useful in the manufacturing
of wines. Along with this, they find application in leather
manufacturing, as mentioned earlier. Tannin market is also witnessing healthy growth, due
to its usage in the wider beverage industry, as it has proved to be
beneficial to health. Additionally, it is also used in the production of wood
adhesives and anti-corrosive primers. Wow, so many uses!

In Wine-making
Tannins act as structural components and are
utilized to retain the color of wine. These extracts help the wines to age
better, ferment properly and gain a distinct aroma. It thus improves the taste
and aroma of wines.
In Wood Adhesive Production
The high demand for wood among important
industries has resulted in the corresponding high demand for wood
adhesives. Wood adhesives find application in the areas of furniture-making,
construction and manufacturing of musical instruments. The tannin known as
‘Pinus radiata’, which is native to California and Mexico, has been studied
regarding its usage in wood adhesive production. Additionally, the product is
also a component in a type of industrial particleboard adhesive that has been
jointly developed by Forintek Labs Canada and the Tanzania Industrial Research
and Development Organization.

In The Manufacture Of Leather
The tannin market finds its largest area of
application in leather manufacturing. Tannins extracted from various tree
plants including, barks, roots and leaves are utilized for the manufacturing of
leather. Owing to their insoluble proteins, they do not decompose and are thus
utilized for tanning leathers. They help in improving the solidarity,
water-resistance, and wearing properties of leather.
Different methods produce varied results in
leathers. Some prominent methods utilized for manufacturing leather include
chrome, vegetable, alternative, and natural tanning. Leather is manufactured
with the help of these biomolecules in three stages including preparation
stage, tanning, and crusting.
