What is the most important thing about synthetic leather ? In this issue we are going to talk about the most important elements in synthetic leather ingredients.

 

So If we are talking about PVC synthetic leather, we should discuss about these elements:

  • The name of articles (off course)
  • The thickness in millimeters. More thickness equals to more chemical coating and therefore affected the price of the synthetic leather
  • The Coating. Is this a single coating or double coating? The more coating the more durability it is and more expensive.
  • The Backing Cloth.This is the cloth underneath the coating. Can be single knit, double knit, or polylotto or any kind of fabrics. This elements define the tear strength of the PVC synthetic leather
  • Tone Color.One tone or two tone. The two tone is usually called printing
  • Emboss. The kind of texture of the surface coating
  • Surface. You want the glossy one or the matte one? or semi matte
  • The PVC application.Is it for Car cover sheet, or sofa, or ladies bags, shoes,etc

Next time we are going to discuss each elements one by one.

How to differentiate PU (Polyurethane) and PVC (Poly Vnyl Chloride) Synthetic Leather

Carviero PU and PVC to save the Environment

As I came to the Laboratory of Synthetic Leather. I found out the way to differentiate PU (Polyurethane) and PVC (Poly Vnyl Chloride).

First you should clean the surface of the synthetic leather and then bring the synthetic leather near you ear and bend the surface of the synthetic leather so they meet surface-to-surface. Slowly you tap both surface together and release the surface.

If you hear a sound of the surface then it must be a pvc (poly vynl chloride) if it is not it should be the PU (Polyurethane) Synthetic leather.

PVC Synthetic Leather can be processed in two ways:Calender and Casting Calender is a Machine used to produce continues sheet material from such plastics as PVC and polyethylene and consisting essentially of two or more internally heated or cooled counter-rotating rolls between which the material passes.

Calenders are also used to apply a plastics covering to backing materials such as paper, fabric and foil. In this operation the backing material and the plastics film are squeezed together to consolidate them, and fused on heated rollers.

Save the Environment by Using PU and PVC Synthetic Leather

Consumers who still choose leather do so because they are attracted to the advertising or to the look and feel of leather, not to the fact that it comes off the backs of tortured animals. Thus, if automakers decided to use a material that looked and felt just like leather (or better), they would be praised as progressive, compassionate, ethical, and environmentally conscious and would still win the business of all consumers, including those who are attracted to the look and feel of leather.

Synthetic leather has been manufactured in the U.S. since 1963. Since then, technology has advanced, and these days, its often impossible to tell the difference between leather and synthetic leather without looking at labels. Synthetic leather is now widely used because of its uniformity, ease of care, versatility, breathability, ability to hold dye, durability, and many other advantages.

BMW and Audi already offer ‘pleather’ (synthetic leather) in some models. Jaguar UK offers synthetic leather and fabric options for all its vehicles. These days, there is a variety of luxurious synthetic leather options, so car companies can choose non-leather fabrics based on their appearance and durability. Ultrafabrics makes beautiful, soft faux leather for cars that is up to six times more durable than leather.

Textile Fabric Consultants, Inc., reports that pleather now represents the most daring and cutting-edge textile available. It is a predominant fabric in designs by Tom Ford of Gucci, Moschino, Prada, FUBU, Sean Jean and others. Top designers like Stella McCartney and Todd Oldham refuse to use leather in their designs and, in doing so, represent the sentiments of millions of consumers. Many celebrities – such as Sir Paul McCartney, Pamela Anderson, Moby, Alicia Silverstone – also refuse to use leather.

PVC (PolyVinyl Chloride) Applications by Carviero

Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is a major thermoplastic material finding use in a very wide variety of applications and products.

PVC by Carviero

The essential raw materials for PVC are derived from salt and oil. The electrolysis of salt water produces chlorine, which is combined with ethylene, obtained from oil, to form vinyl chloride monomer (VCM). Molecules of VCM are polymerised to form PVC resin, to which appropriate additives are incorporated to make a customised PVC compound.



GRADES AVAILABLE
A wide variety of grades of PVC are available, suitable for:
* blow moulding
* calendering
* cast or blown film
* coating
* extrusion
* injection moulding
* rotational moulding
* thermoforming
* slush moulding

PROPERTIES

PVC’s major benefit is its compatibility with many different kinds of additives, making it a highly versatile polymer. PVC can be plasticised to make it flexible for use in flooring and medical products. Rigid PVC, also known as PVC-U (The U stands for “unplasticised”) is used extensively in building applications such as window frames.

Its compatibility with additives allows for the possible addition of flame retardants although PVC is intrinsically fire retardant because of the presence of chlorine in the polymer matrix.

PVC has excellent electrical insulation properties, making it ideal for cabling applications. Its good impact strength and weatherproof attributes make it ideal for construction products.

PVC can be clear or coloured, rigid or flexible, formulation of the compound is key to PVC’s “added value”.

APPLICATIONS
Window frames, drainage pipe, water service pipe, medical devices, blood storage bags, cable and wire insulation, resilient flooring, roofing membranes, stationary, automotive interiors and seat coverings, fashion and footwear, packaging, cling film, credit cards, synthetic leather and other coated fabrics.

1) Construction

PVC has been used extensively in a wide range of construction products for over half a century. PVC’s strong, lightweight, durable and versatile characteristics make it ideal for window profiles. PVC’s inherent flame retardant and excellent electrical insulation properties make it ideal for cabling applications.

Typical example of PVC construction products include:
* Window and door profiles
* Architectual glazing systems
* Pipes and fittings
* Power, data and telecoms wiring and cables
* Cable and services ducting
* Internal and external cladding
* Conservatories and atria
* Roofing and ceiling systems and membranes
* Rainwater, soil and waste systems
* Flooring
* Wallcoverings

2) Healthcare

PVC has been used for hundreds of life-saving and healthcare products for almost 50 years being used in surgery, pharmaceuticals, drug delivery and medical packaging.

Typical examples of PVC healthcare products include:
* “Artificial skin” in emergency burns treatment
* Blood and plasma transfusion sets
* Blood vessels for artificial kidneys
* Catheters and cannulae
* Blood bags
* Containers for intravenous solution giving sets
* Container for urine continence and ostomy products
* Fluid Bags
* Drip chamber components
* Endotracheal tubing
* Feeding and pressure monitoring tubing
* Heart and lung bypass sets

* Mattress and bedding covers
* Wall and floor coverings
* Blister and dosage packs for pharmaceuticals and medicines
* Power, data and telecoms cables
* Piping delivery systems
* Drainage channels
* Ducting
* Anti-bump protection bars

3) Automotive Synthetic Leather

PVC brings both high performance qualities and important cost benefits to the automotive industry. Independent research by Mavel Consultants has shown that the typical cost of using alternative materials is in a range 20-100% higher per component.

Typical examples of PVC automotive components include:
* Instrument panels and associated mouldings
* Interior Door Panels and Pockets
* Sun Visors
* Seat Coverings
* Security Covers
* Headlining
* Body Seam Sealing
* Seals
* Mud Flaps
