Pu is the abbreviation of English poly urethane, the chemical Chinese name is "polyurethane". PU leather is the skin of the polyurethane component. Now it is widely used in the decoration of luggage, clothing, shoes, vehicles and furniture. It has been increasingly recognized by the market. Its wide range of applications, large quantity and variety, cannot be satisfied by traditional natural leather.
PU fabric is a simulated leather fabric, which is a synthetic material with leather texture and durable characteristics. Now that the pu material is so good, let's take a look at the characteristics of the pu material in detail:
1. Good physical properties, resistance to twists and turns, good softness, high tensile strength, and breathability. The pattern of pu fabric is to use a kind of pattern paper to heat and press the surface of the semi-finished leather first, wait for it to cool down, and then separate the paper leather for surface treatment.
2. High air permeability, temperature permeability can reach 8000-14000g/24h/cm2, high peel strength, high water pressure resistance, it is an ideal material for the surface layer and bottom layer of waterproof and breathable clothing fabrics.
3. The price is high. The price of some special PU fabrics is 2-3 times higher than that of PVC fabrics. The pattern paper required for general PU fabrics can only be used for 4-5 times and then it will be scrapped.
4. The use period of the pattern roller is long, so the cost of PU leather is higher than that of PVC leather.
5. With thermoplastic and spinnability, it can be made into plastic and fiber.
Since pu fabrics have the above characteristics, how to clean and maintain pu fabrics?
1. Clean with water and detergent, avoid gasoline scrubbing
2. No dry cleaning
3. Can only be washed with water, and the washing temperature cannot exceed 40 degrees
4. Do not expose to sunlight
5. Can not contact some organic solvents
6. The pu leather jacket needs to be stored in a hanging bag and cannot be folded
