Extract
Tara powder is obtained from the de seeded pods of Tara (Caesalpina spinosa).
There are two types of tara powder: a course-grained powder (2mm), obtained after threshing the tara pods in a mill; and micronized tara powder obtained after grinding the pods into a fine powder.
Description
Tara Powder is a natural source of Tannins extracted from the Tara Pods (Caesalpinea Tinctoria) .The tannin of the Caesalpinia Tinctoria has a pyrogallic character but small quantities of catechol derivatives also occur in it.
The Tara tannin contains practically no coloring substances, and it therefore gives a very bright, light-resistant leather. In addition, Tara Powder imparts fullness and softness to the leather and a fine, closed grain which in the breaking elongation test resists a higher load than leathers which are tanned with other vegetable tannins.
Also, Tara Powder is used in tanning and manufacturing of plastic, adhesives galvanize and Galvan plastics, Wine clarifying (in order to improve the quality of beer), pharmaceutical industry( for their therapeutic qualities), metals protection, cosmetic area, oil-bearing drilling. etc.
