The full name of microfiber is microfiber PU synthetic leather. Generally speaking, microfiber is made of a layer of high-performance PU(polyurethane resin) and microfiber cloth. Its structure is closest to genuine leather, and it belongs to the third generation of artificial leather with excellent performance.
● History of microfiber leather:
The industrial production of artificial tannery has a history of several decades, and its products are constantly updated with the application of various new materials. The leather base fabric has changed from woven fabric to today's non-woven fabric, the resin used has changed from polyvinyl chloride and acrylic resin to polyurethane (PU), and the fiber has changed from common chemical fiber to differentiated fiber such as coupling fiber and microfiber. In short, the process of artificial leather is reflected in the PVC leather to PU leather to the popular microfiber leather today. In terms of product style, artificial leather tanning has gone through the development process from low-grade to high-grade, from imitation to simulation, and the features of the latest generation of synthetic microfiber leather have even surpassed natural leather.
Microfiber synthetic leather is developed on the basis of the full dissection of natural leather. Microfiber synthetic leather is made of bundled microfiber and polyurethane through a special process. It is made of nylon microfiber, which has similar structure and performance to the bundled collagen fiber in natural leather, and then filled with polyurethane, which has excellent performance and open microporous structure, by post-processing.
● Introduction of microfiber leather:
Microfiber (microfiber PU leather) is made by the island type fiber spray method. The so-called island fiber is composed of two kinds of ingredients as the sea and island structure, respectively, in the section of a certain ingredient for the sea, another ingredient for the island scattered in the sea, in the draft after the dissolution of the sea ingredients to get a continuous ultra-fine island-type ingredients fiber bundle, the fiber fiber fibre degree up to 0.0011dtex, usually 0.06 ~ 0.1dtex, more like natural leather collagen fiber, through cutting short, carding. Through the production process of cutting short, carding, spreading and needling, the island fiber non-woven is produced. Because of the higher fiber fineness of microfiber, the quality of the product is greatly improved. Therefore, the appearance effect of microfiber leather is most like genuine leather; its products are also better than natural leather in terms of thickness uniformity, tear strength, color vividness and leather surface utilization, which has become the direction of contemporary synthetic leather development.
Microfiber is very similar to dermis, with only 1% thin cross-section of human hair, which is very close to dermis. Tear resistance, tensile strength, and abrasion resistance surpass real leather. 200,000 times of normal temperature bending without cracks, and 30,000 times of low temperature (-20) bending without cracks. Microfiber is short for superfine fiber PU synthetic leather. Microfiber fiber leather is a non-woven fabric with three-dimensional structure network made of superfine fiber staple fiber by carding and needling, and then made of superfine fiber leather by wet processing, immersion of PU resin, alkali reduction, skin grinding and dyeing.
● Features of microfiber leather:
The tearing, tensile strength and wear resistance of microfiber fiber leather exceed that of genuine leather. The Bensen company produces microfiber synthetic fiber leather with inspection report certificate;
Cold resistance, acid resistance, alkali resistance, no fade. Color fastness can reach 4 levels;
Microfiber vegan leather does not contain eight kinds of heavy metals and does not produce substances harmful to human body. Microfiber leather material is also the most environmentally friendly and popular car interior trim material nowadays;
The thickness of microfiber PU leather is uniform, the cutting surface is neat and non-abrasive, the surface effect can be consistent with the leather, but the utilization rate is higher than the leather;
Microfiber leather also has a comfortable feel, similar to that of genuine leather, and is smooth and comfortable to the touch.
High strength, thin and elastic, soft and smooth, breathable and waterproof.
Bensen's microfiber leather has a smooth, tight surface, can be treated and dyed in a variety of ways, and is easy to sew.
Longer life, the normal life of the general microfiber leather in 3-5 years, the quality will be proportionally longer, can be used for ten years.
● Application of microfiber leather:
Luggage
Clothing
Shoes
Car Seats
Car interiors
Furniture sofas
Gloves
Photo frame albums
Daily living products
Etc.
● Care of microfiber leather:
1.Cleaning microfiber leather, use water and detergent cleaning, avoid scrubbing with organic solvents. Using water to clean, the water temperature should not exceed 40 degrees. This can protect the leather surface layer, extend the life of leather, slow down the situation of leather off.
2.Don’t be exposed to sunlight.Long time exposure to the sun will make the leather fade, and even cause the leather to crack off the phenomenon of occurrence.
3.Please do not wash microfiber leather in the washing machine, dry cleaning is recommended.
4.Microfiber leather jacket needs to be hung in a bag collection, not folded. Short time folding, microfiber leather can restore the original, long time folding will make its surface form indentation, reduce the beauty of leather jacket.
