Artificial PU PVC Leather Identification Method

2021-07-16

Material front
When we distinguish PU and PVC materials, we can first look at them from the front. The front of PU Leather is smoother, softer and more comfortable to touch with your hands, while its bottom is thicker, and its tensile strength is stronger, which can withstand twists and turns. Pull it with a hand, if it does not deform into PU leather. Let's compare the PVC material again. Its surface is relatively rough and the bottom is thinner. It is hard to touch with your hands. This is the characteristic of PVC material.
Material thickness
We can distinguish them not only from the front, but also from the thickness to verify their "identity." From the side, the thickness of PU is relatively thicker, while that of PVC is thinner.
Feel
To identify their materials, you can also perceive them by hand. The PU feels softer and softer to the touch. The PVC feels harder, and some will tie your hands.
Price
Another thing that can identify them is the price. Their production processes are different, so there will be differences in price. Usually PU leather is higher than PVC, if the price is cheaper, PU leather can be excluded.
Bottom material
We can also identify them from their base materials. Generally, non-woven fabrics are used in PU, which is of relatively high quality. The base of PVC Leather is woven fabric and knitted fabric, and the base fabric is generally thinner and thinner.
Texture

We can also distinguish their material from the grain. Generally speaking, the lines of PVC are deeper, and the foam layer in the middle is more obvious. In terms of texture, PU can be divided into mirror PU, sheep pattern PU, R61 pattern PU, soft pattern and so on. Let`s first talk about the more common types of PU. Mirror PU has an obvious feature, that is, its surface is relatively bright; there will be continuous small holes on the surface of sheep pattern PU; and the texture on the surface of soft pattern PU It is relatively deep.
