The objective of this research is to know the influence of using egg yolk and Polarasol SS in fatliquoring process to the stretch of the goat crust leather.

A part of goat wet blue skins were fatliquored with egg yolk 5.0%, 7.5% and 10% successively. The other part was fatliquored using Polarasol SS by the same manner to that one of using egg yolk.
