Leather air is a very common fabric category in sofas.
In view of the raw materials and production process of air leather, most of the prices are relatively close to the people. When talking about advantages, cheapness should be counted as one. The disadvantage is that compared with high-end leather and cloth, the sense of the value of technical cloth is much weaker. At present, the production technology is relatively mature. The products of well-known suppliers can basically reach a theoretical service life of 5-10 years, but consumers in the real market have a lower tolerance for the aging of technical cloth than conventional cloth products.
Almost all of the technical fabrics are made of Polyester, which is commonly known as polyester, but calling it directly doesn’t sound very advanced. Therefore, Minhua first proposed a new word, called air leather.
Air leather generally has three main technical indicators, wear resistance, hydrolysis resistance, light colorfastness.
The abrasion resistance of polyester is second only to nylon with the best abrasion resistance, better than other natural fibers and synthetic fibers, and has good light resistance. , ketones, petroleum products, and inorganic acids. Resistant to dilute alkali, not afraid of mildew, but hot alkali can make it decompose. It is a very good man-made fiber. However, it has a very troublesome disadvantage. It is not easy to dye.
Because the air contains moisture, the purpose of the hydrolysis resistance test is to see the anti-aging of the material, that is, the common coating peeling off. At present, the products of most first-tier suppliers can still maintain the 4-5 level in 5-10 years.
These test standards are actually higher than the dermis. The biggest advantage of genuine leather is the quality of the material. This is something that cannot be solved by current technology.
Here are some common leather air styles. Note that the durability of leather-coated fabrics is often inferior to that of uncoated technical fabrics. In addition, many consumers like the feeling of rigidity and smoothness of the fabrics. In this regard, technical fabrics need to dry a lot of linen and cotton.
Leather air is indeed a material whose advantages outweigh its disadvantages. It can show many different effects at a lower price, and its flatness is also better than that of fabrics. It is very widely used in mid-range products. If you want to talk about the shortcomings, it may also be here, imitating different leather effects, but it can't really achieve the effect of leather, and there is a big difference in the sense of value. High-end products are still in the world of fabrics and leather.
