How does silicone surpass traditional artificial leather?
2023-11-23
The permeability of traditional artificial leather is often poor, while the permeability of silicone leather is better. Because of the large gap between its molecules, it is more conducive to the penetration of water vapor. Compared with traditional synthetic leather, silicone leather has better air permeability. In terms of wear resistance, organic silicon leather also comprehensively surpasses the traditional artificial leather. The organic silicon leather has good wear resistance. Under the wear resistance test, the rotating speed is 60 revolutions under the load of 1000g, and the rotating speed is more than 2000 revolutions per minute. There is no obvious change. The coefficient is as high as grade 4. In daily life, it can meet the needs of various application scenarios.
In terms of leather properties, the moisture resistance that few people can pay attention to is actually very important. For example, in wet weather in the south, traditional artificial leather may have a wet feeling on the surface, which is very bad. Under the moisture-proof test, when the temperature is 40 ° C, the humidity is 92%, and the product has no abnormal change. The moisture-proof performance is excellent, which can prevent the leather from being damaged by wet weather. This is the unique chemical structure of silicone.
So how about the life of silicone leather? One of the characteristics of silicone leather is that it has excellent aging resistance, strong hydrolysis resistance, weather resistance and UV resistance, which are better than traditional artificial leather, so its life will be longer.
Officially benefit from the incomparable characteristics of silicon, making it still maintain stability and excellent performance in many harsh environments, with the increasingly mature silicone leather process, many long in the humidity, corrosive industry, become the key application areas of silicone leather, such as furniture and decoration on yachts, outdoor furniture, car seats, medical equipment and so on. In addition to acid and alkali resistance, silicone leather also has anti-wrinkle and anti-ultraviolet properties, even if long-term exposure to outdoor sunlight, still will not have any impact, therefore, many stadium seats are now using silicone leather to produce.
