What Is Pu Leather Made Of?
PU leather is a man-made synthetic leather material, mainly made of polyurethane resin.
PU leather, or polyurethane synthetic leather, is a type of polyurethane elastomer. Its production process usually involves coating polyurethane resin on a substrate such as textiles or non-woven fabrics, and these coating materials have good elasticity, softness and durability. PU leather can imitate the appearance and texture of natural leather, but compared with genuine leather, it has better wear resistance and waterproof performance, and is more affordable.
In addition, the production process of PU leather can be adjusted to achieve different surface effects, thereby imitating different types of natural leather, such as cowhide, sheepskin, etc. In the fashion field, PU leather is widely used due to its diversity and high cost-effectiveness, including furniture, footwear, clothing, automotive interiors and other aspects.
It is worth noting that although PU leather is superior to genuine leather in some aspects, such as wear resistance and price, it is relatively poor in breathability. Therefore, when choosing to use PU leather, it is necessary to weigh it according to the specific application scenario and needs.
