The main component of finished leather is collagen fiber. Collagen fiber is the main component of the dermis, accounting for 95%~98% of the total dermis, and is composed of collagen protein. After long-term boiling in water, this fiber will undergo molecular degradation, generating a gelatinous substance, namely hide glue or gelatin.
In addition, the dermis also contains other non-fibrous components, such as blood vessels, sweat glands, sebaceous glands, hair follicles, muscles, lymphatic vessels, nerves, interfibrillar substance, and fat cells. These components, together with collagen fibers, constitute the structure of the dermis, giving it specific physical and chemical properties.
