“…When using batik wax on the leather surface, some complications arise. The mixture of batik wax contains paraffin wax, beeswax, colophony resin (pine gum/gondorukem), animal fat, coconut oil, lancing wax, and dammar Batu resin (Shorea javanica) [8]. The colophony resin has two types of impacts.…”

An Evaluation of Simulated Batik Techniques to Chrome Re-tanned Leather Substrates

Batik is one of the most attractive and precious methods which enhances the value of leather even of a very simple one. Batik is mainly practised on clothes. Practising batik on leather is not yet mainstreamed. In the batik technique on leather, wax is typically used as a colour barrier and then different wax removers are used to remove wax from the leather surface. Wax and wax removers create some complexities in leather. This study aims to explore different techniques such as tie-dye, block, splashing, and painting to create a batik effect on the chrome re-tanned leather surface. Then different colour fastness tests (rub, wash, perspiration, light, and heat fastness) are accomplished to assess the quality of batik leather. The resulting appearance and quality of the finished leathers are assessed with greyscale and found at a satisfactory level. In each fastness test, results in the greyscale ratings are 4/5 to 5. The produced leathers are then used for making coin purses, key cases, and ladies' purses. So, the new batik techniques are recommendable for practice.

“…The quality of batik wax has been defined based on several criteria as follows; latching or adherence power, resistance against cracking, alkaline chemicals and colorant diffusion in the cold and warm dye solution, pliability, ability to render designs with sharp lines, the color wax stain, ease of removal from fabric, ease of solidification, stickiness, ease of melting, ease of use, and cost (Kudiya et al, 2014; Kusumawati et al, 2017). The batik waxes used in Indonesia consist of a mixture of shorea javanica ( damar mata kucing ), pine gum ( gondorukem ), beeswax, coconut oil, animal fat, lancing wax, and paraffin (Malik et al, 2018). In comparison, the batik artisans in Malaysia use batik resist materials that are mainly made from varying ratios of beeswax, paraffin, dammar, and vegetable oil.…”

“…Dammar is expensive thus, only a small amount of dammar is added to the wax composition to improve the wax resistance against alkali treatment (Kudiya et al, 2014) as well as increasing adhesiveness (Bomford & Staniforth, 1981). Addition of vegetable/kerosene oil or animal fat aids in dissolving the waxes and lowers the melting point of the batik wax blend (Kudiya et al, 2018; Malik et al, 2018).…”

Malaysia and Indonesia are well known as prolific producers of batik in Southeast Asia. The history of batik in both countries is deeply intertwined for more than a century. Most available published works related to batik production, challenges, and innovations were discussed within the local batik context of each country. This study aims to identify collectively how far batik, as a creative industry in these countries has progressed since its establishment until the present 21st century. It was notable that batik craftsmanships have been mostly maintained as similar tools and techniques are persistently being used until today in both countries. Significant progress was observed in the design and stylization of the batik design with the use of digital approaches such as fractal geometry. Similar challenging problems faced by both nations were highlighted and clustered into internal and external issues. It was concluded that assimilations of Third Industrial Revolution technology (IR3.0) primarily centered on the use of computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing to improve existing batik production. Emerging studies have shown the positive impact of integrating Fourth Industrial Revolution (IR4.0) technology such as augmented reality (AR) in promoting batik knowledge and transmitting batik as an intangible cultural heritage. The transmission of batik skills to the young generation has been a persistent problem. Thus, a brief framework was proposed to exemplify how IR4.0 technology can innovatively be used to transmit the batik skills via education platform.

“…The creation of batik textiles involves using various kinds of resist materials to block the diffusion of dye on the fabric and create beautiful batik motifs. In Southeast Asia, batik artisans in Indonesia use wax-based resist materials from beeswax that are blended with shorea javanica (damar mata kucing), pine gum (gondorukem), wax waste, gum rosin, coconut oil, animal fat, lancing wax, and paraffin [1]- [2]. The ratio of the batik resist materials varies as their batik industry spans across its vast archipelago.…”

The typical of beeswax, dammar, rosin, paraffin, and microcrystalline wax. batik wax compositions used in Malaysia consist of various blends This study aims to characterize soy wax/beeswax blends’ structural, thermal, strength, and mass loss properties as potential alternative batik wax compositions. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) results showed that the additions of beeswax (wt%) into soy wax resulted in possible chemical interaction for the esters (C=O stretching and C-H bending vibrations), hydrocarbons (CH2 scissor formation), and cholestral esters (C=O stretching vibrations). The thermal profile obtained via differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) respectively revealed an increase in peak melting temperature and reduced thermal stability of the blends with further increments of beeswax. In addition, beeswax enhances the compression strength by 150% but did not have any significant impact on the modulus of the blends. E valuation of the mass loss test suggested that beeswax in the range of 40 wt% to 60 wt% can be considered as alternative batik resist material due to its moderate leaching tendency. Future works shall be conducted to evaluate the performance of these wax compositions against other batik wax criteria and the feasibility of printing these waxes using an in-house designed batik printer.
