METHOD OF PRODUCING SUEDE-LIKE SYNTHETIC LEATHERS

摘要

An artificial suede-like leather is produced by (1) coating an elastomeric polymer composition onto a temporary carrier member, (2) laminating a napped fabric or other suitable material onto the polymer coating, (3) drying and partially curing the polymer coating, (4) peeling the temporary carrier member from the coating, leaving a layer of the polymer coating on the surface of the carrier member and (5) subsequently curing the polymer layer remaining on the fabric to form an unitary article comprised of the fabric and the polymer layer. The elastomeric polymer can be a curable polyurethane elastomer or a mixture of other polymers with a curable elastomer. Alternately, a napped fabric can be coated in step (1) and a temporary carrier can be laminated onto the polymer coating in step (2) followed by steps (3-5) to produce an artifical suede leather.
