In the manufacturing of leather from lambskins, skin degreasing is an important preliminary stage in which excess fats are removed. A new solvent‐phase degreasing process, which leads to a complete recovery of extracted fats, has been studied and scaled up in our laboratory. In this paper, we study the characteristics of these extracted fatty substances that have not been reported previously. Extracted fats which, up to now, were considered waste, can be used. Different methods have been proposed for their possible utilization.
