Description
A strong, liquid adhesive consisting primarily of Gelatin and other protein residues of Collagen, Keratin, or Elastin. Hide glue has been made from ancient times from skins of animals (goats, sheep, goats, cattle, horses, etc.). These agglutinating materials are hydrolyzed and broken down in boiling water; the cooled solution yields a jelly-like substance which is gelatin or glue. The water soluble glue occurs in a wide variety of forms and colors ranging from transparent to opaque and white to brown. Top-quality hide glues are made from rabbitskin and parchment clippings. Hide glues are used in the manufacture of furniture, book binding, abrasive papers, gummed paper and matches. They has also been used in gilding applications, for sizing canvas, for making gesso, for repairing broken china, and as consolidants.
