I would like to know that after say a jacket has been cultured, and is now ready to be tanned and taken through the whole hide/skin into leather procedures is do the dimensions of the jacket change and if they do change is there any mathematical relation of the original size to the final size.
Kindly re-state your question again as I need more clarity to assist because you mention a jacket and how it is to be taken through a process of tanning! Why I am confused is due to the fact the jacket if leather based is an end product of the processing regime or are referring to an already designed Jacket which is taken through another process to determine its shrinkage?
Best Regards
In the production of victim-less leather. cells are grown in tissue culture, and the tissue is produced in a stitch-less jacket. which will be consisting of live cells. then there is tanning that is done.
My question then becomes when there is tanning will the jacket retain the original dimensions or will they change based on the donor animal.
