Learn about solvent-free leather and enjoy a healthy and environmentally friendly life
Solvent-free leather is an environmentally friendly artificial leather. No low-boiling organic solvents are added during its production process, achieving zero emissions and reducing environmental pollution.
The production principle of this leather is based on the complementary reaction of two resins and is made by high-temperature drying. During the production process, no waste gas or wastewater is generated, reflecting the concept of "green manufacturing". Solvent-free leather has the characteristics of scratch resistance, hydrolysis resistance, wear resistance, etc., and has passed a number of strict health and safety standards, such as the European standard REACHER181 indicators. In addition, the production technology of solvent-free leather also includes the reaction of prepolymers and the gelation and polyaddition process of coatings, ensuring the quality and performance of the product.
1. What is solvent-free leather
Solvent-free leather is a new type of leather material developed in recent years. Unlike traditional leather, it does not contain harmful organic solvents. In layman's terms, it is a kind of leather made by combining solvent-free spinning materials with traditional synthetic processes. Through the combination of modern technology and ecological and environmental protection principles, it is a truly healthy and environmentally friendly leather material.
2. Manufacturing process of solvent-free leather
The process of manufacturing solvent-free leather is mainly divided into the following steps:
1. Raw material processing. First, prepare the raw materials, including material selection, washing, drying and other processes.
2. Preparation of spinning materials. Solvent-free spinning technology is used to prepare non-solvent fibers for leather manufacturing.
3. Synthesis. The spinning materials are mixed with various environmentally friendly materials, and new materials with leather characteristics are synthesized through special processes.
4. Forming. The synthesized materials are processed and formed, such as embossing, cutting, stitching, etc.
5. Post-processing. Finally, the finished product is post-processed, such as dyeing, coating, waxing, etc.
III. Characteristics and advantages of solvent-free leather
1. Environmental protection. Solvent-free leather does not contain organic solvents and has no harm to the human environment and health.
2. Lightweight. Compared with traditional leather, solvent-free leather is lighter and more comfortable to wear.
3. Wear-resistant. Solvent-free leather has better wear resistance, breathability, softness and strength than traditional leather.
4. Bright color. The color of solvent-free leather dyeing is brighter and more durable, not easy to fade, and has better color stability.
5. Customizable. Solvent-free leather manufacturing process is flexible and can be tailored according to customer needs to produce leather products with personalized characteristics.
4. Application fields of solvent-free leather
Solvent-free leather is currently mainly used in high-end shoes, handbags, luggage, car interior decoration, furniture and other fields. Today, as environmental protection is increasingly concerned, more and more manufacturing companies have begun to consider environmental protection in production and operation, and products using solvent-free leather as raw materials are increasingly recognized by consumers.
[Conclusion]
Solvent-free leather is an environmentally friendly, healthy, high-quality material with broad application prospects. As individual consumers face the trend of green and environmentally friendly life needs, solvent-free leather has become a new choice for fashionable, environmentally friendly and rational consumption.
