V. Перепишите текст и переведите письменно. Leather
Leather making is the science of using acids, bases, salts, enzymes and tannins to
dissolve fats and nonfibrous proteins and strengthen the bonds between the collagen
fibres. The modern commercial leather making process involves three basic phases:
preparation for tanning, tanning and processing tanned leather. As a preliminary step, a
hide must be carefully skinned and protected both in storage and transportation before
reaching the tannery. At the tannery the hide is soaked to remove all water-soluble
substances and restore it to its original shape and softness. After the basic tanning
process is completed, the pelts are ready for processing, the final phase in leather
production. The tanned pelt is first thoroughly dried and then dyed to it the appropriate
color : common methods include drum dyeing, spraying, brush dyeing and staining. The
leather is then dried, stretched and softened, and the grain surface is coated to give it
additional resistance to abrasion, cracking, peeling, water, heat and cold.
