Abstract
Batik block is referring to the process of decorating and colouring fabrics to create the pattern. This aimed in this study is to evaluate the batik block technique on vegetable-tanned cow leather. This study was conducted in two stages, in which the first stage aimed to evaluate the adherence rate of wax by some factors such as heat temperature and wax composition on vegetable-tanned cow leather. The second stage of the study aimed to evaluate the type of dye used in the batik method of dyeing on vegetable-tanned cow leather. The experiment and observation method was applied in this study to collect the data. On the leather that has been printed using the block technique, the wax as a batik resist has a heat level at an average of 60-70 degrees celcius. Meanwhile, in batik dyeing, remazol dye was utilised. The Characteristic of remazol is easily mixed and handled with water, providing the best adhesion and colorfastness. In conclusion, vegetable-tanned cow leather with the batik dyeing method was recommended to become one of the alternative materials of batik craft.
