As the first generation product of artificial leather, PVC artificial leather, with its characteristics similar to natural leather, such as bright appearance, soft texture, wear resistance, folding resistance, acid and alkali resistance, etc., has developed considerably since the 1970s.

In recent years, under the pressure of environmental protection policies, synthetic leather companies that do not meet environmental protection standards are gradually shutting down. At the same time, with the development of new materials and new technologies, the competition in the synthetic leather market is becoming increasingly fierce, and backward production capacity is gradually being eliminated. Especially for the mainstream PVC artificial leather, due to environmental problems, its development is now facing great challenges. (Crosslinking agent used in PVC artificial leather)

The advantages of PVC artificial leather, such as hydrolysis resistance, wear resistance, scratch resistance, folding resistance, acid and alkali resistance, and flame retardancy, have been brought into play. Coupled with the use of environmentally friendly plasticizers, repeated recycling and reuse of PVC resin, and improvements in exhaust gas recovery efficiency, its main environmental problems have been basically solved. Most importantly, the low price advantage of PVC artificial leather has given it new vitality and vigor in recent years. (Crosslinking agent used in PVC artificial leather)

Artificial leather, as a substitute for natural leather, such as PVC artificial leather and PU artificial leather, not only overcomes the shortcomings of low utilization rate, poor wear resistance, low tear strength, uneven texture, and difficulty in cutting of genuine leather, but also solves the problem of increasingly scarce genuine leather resources and the serious environmental pollution caused by its processing.

What material is better for artificial leather? People usually call artificial leather made from PVC resin as PVC artificial leather (artificial leather for short); artificial leather made from PU resin is called PU artificial leather (PU leather for short): artificial leather made from PU resin and non-woven fabric is called PU synthetic leather (synthetic leather for short). pvc leather is affordable, waterproof, and scratch-resistant, but the downside is that it has a plastic smell, feels hard, and is sensitive to temperature. It softens at high temperatures and hardens at low temperatures. (Crosslinking agent used in PVC artificial leather)

Artificial leather has the advantages of good water resistance and resistance to acids, alkalis, and organic solvents. It can be processed according to different requirements of strength, wear resistance, cold resistance, color, gloss, and patterns, and has the characteristics of a wide variety of colors, good waterproof performance, neat edges, high utilization rate, and a relatively low price compared to genuine leather.
