Boye

The Boye curve is a graphical representation used in the leather industry to describe the relationship between the pH level of leather and its tameness or softness. It shows that at certain pH levels, leather becomes more pliable and easier to work with, while outside these levels, it can be stiffer or more difficult to process. Essentially, it helps tanners identify optimal pH ranges to produce leather with desired properties, balancing durability and flexibility for various applications.
