Tannin Extraction from the bark of Pinus oocarpa var. oocarpa with sodium carbonate and sodium bisulfite. The objective of this study was to evaluate the tannin extraction potential taken from the bark of Pinus oocarpa var. oocarpa. Nine treatments were performed; the bark was submitted to extraction using water and water containing different concentrations of sodium carbonate and sodium bisulfite. The mixture was kept under reflux for two hours. The extracted contents, the polyphenol found in the extracts (Stiasny number), the tannin yield, the non-tannin yield and the tannin reactivity through UV method were all determined. The results have revealed that it is possible to obtain high tannin content (approximately 39%) from the bark of Pinus oocarpa var. oocarpa by using water extraction when coupled with the addition of salt. The treatment having (8%) of sodium carbonate provided a greater yield of condensed tannins, underlining the importance of utilizing this salt with this concentration during the extraction process. However, the extracts must be evaluated according to other important wood-gluing properties, such as viscosity and gel time.
