Laminated artifical leather and method of making

Claim 2

Laminated artificial leather having a natural leather hand feel, comprising an unfoamed polymeric resin outer layer, a foamed polyvinyl chloride bottom layer having an abraded outer surface and at least one intermediate layer comprising a fabric free polyvinyl chloride between the facing surfaces of the outer and bottom layers, said outer layer being embossed at its outer surface to provide a leather look.

Claim 3

An artificial leather according to claim 1, wherein the outer layer comprises polyvinyl chloride.

Claim 4

An artificial leather according to claim 1, wherein the outer layer comprises polyurethane.

Claim 5

An artificial leather according to claim 2 or 3, wherein the intermediate layer is a fabric free foamed polyvinyl chloride layer.

Claim 6

An artificial leather according to claim 4, wherein two fabric free layers of polyvinyl chloride are provided between said facing surfaces of the outer and bottom layers.

Claim 7

An artificial leather according to claim 5, wherein the bottom layer is comprised of a foamed sheet comprising DOP 85 parts per hundred resin (PHR) and Rayon fiber 15 PHR, and the intermediate layers are comprised of a first fabric foamed polyvinyl chloride layer and a second fabric free non-foamed polyvinyl layer.

Claim 8

An artificial leather according to claim 6, wherein the second intermediate layer contains DOP 40 PHR.

Claim 9

An artificial leather according to claims 1, 2 or 3, wherein the exposed surface of the outer layer contains microperforations and is treated to have an odor of leather.

Claim 10

An artificial leather according to claim 1, wherein a further layer is provided between said one polyvinyl chloride layer and the inner facing surface of the outer layer, said further layer comprising a fabric cloth.

Claim 11

An artificial leather according to claim 9, wherein the bottom layer is comprised of a foamed sheet comprising DOP 85 parts per hundred resin (PHR) and Rayon fiber 15 PHR.

Claim 12

The artificial leather of claim 1, wherein the bottom layer comprises ______________________________________ Ingredient Parts by weight ______________________________________ PVC 100 Plasticizer 50-90 Stabilizer 2.5-3.5 Foaming agent 3-6 Rayon fiber 0-40 Pigment 10-15. ______________________________________

Claim 13

A process for manufacturing laminated artificial leather having an unfoamed polyvinyl chloride face layer, a foamed polyvinyl chloride bottom layer and at least two intermediate laminations including both foamed and unfoamed polyvinyl chloride laminations comprising drawing from respective sheet machines at temperatures between about 140°-190° C., a non-foamable ordinary PVC sheet as the face layer and a foamable sheet containing DOP 85 PHR and Rayon fiber 15 PHR as the bottom layer, drawing a further polyvinyl chloride foamable layer and polyvinyl chloride non-foamable layer respectively as first and second intermediate layers consolidating and adhering the four layer laminations in a net type foaming machine for adhering, foaming and embossing between 200°-250° C., treating the surface of the bottom layer with 40-240 mesh sand paper and waxing the surface layer.

Claim 14

A process for manufacturing laminated artificial leather having an unfoamed polyvinyl chloride face layer, a foamed polyvinyl chloride bottom layer and at least two intermediate laminations including both foamed and unfoamed polyvinyl chloride laminations comprising drawing from respective sheet machines at temperatures between about 140°-190° C., a non-foamable ordinary PVC sheet as the face layer and a foamable sheet containing DOP 85 PHR and Rayon fiber 15 PHR as the bottom layer, drawing a further polyvinyl chloride foamable layer and polyvinyl chloride non-foamable layer respectively as first and second intermediate layers consolidating and adhering the four layer laminations in a net type foaming machine for adhering, foaming and embossing between 200°-250° C., treating the surface of the bottom layer with 40-240 mesh sand paper and waxing the surface layer.

Claim 15

A process for manufacturing PVC laminated artificial leather according to claim 10, wherein the face layer is polyurethane, said process comprising the following steps: from sheet machine between 150°-190° C., draw respectively a polyvinyl chloride foam sheet, a DOP 85 PHR, Rayon fiber 15 PHR sheet as first intermediate layer and bottom layer; and a DOP 40 PHR PVC non-foaming sheet as second intermediate layer, laminate the three layers, adhere and foam in a net type foaming machine between 200°-250° C., then grind the upper and bottom surfaces of the semifinished product, transfer the laminate to a coating machine, coat a transfer paper with polyurethane paste layers, adhere the polyurethane first layer closely to the semifinished polyvinyl chloride laminate, eliminate the transfer paper, treat the top surface of the polyurethane first layer to a desired glassness, inspect the complete laminate in an inspection machine, cut to desired length, wind on a reel and pack.
