Understanding PVC Leather Composition
PVC leather, also known as polyvinyl chloride leather, is a synthetic material designed to replicate the look and feel of real leather. It is crafted from a fabric base, typically polyester, which is then coated with a layer of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). This coating gives PVC leather its durability and flexibility, making it a popular choice for various applications.
The creation of PVC leather involves several steps. Initially, a fabric base is selected for its strength and ability to hold the PVC coating effectively. Next, plasticizers and stabilizers are added to the PVC compound to enhance its flexibility and resilience. The compound is then heated, creating a liquid form that allows it to be evenly spread onto the fabric base. Once the PVC is applied, it can be embossed with textures and patterns to mimic real leather's appearance.
