  • the present invention relates to a novel leather-like sheet product which has excellent stay properties and yet excellent balance between softness and buckling resistance and to a production process therefor. Particularly, it relates to a leather-like sheet product suitable for use in furniture and shoes and to a production process therefor.

  • JP-B as used herein means an “examined Japanese patent publication”.
  • the obtained sheet product has a difference between front and rear sides, when it is soft as a whole, it lacks tightness and when it has tightness, it is hard. Therefore, a sheet product as soft and tight as natural leather cannot be obtained by these processes.
  • the processes involve such a problem that when a treating solution is coated in the form of a film, the obtained sheet product becomes too hard because a resin or fiber constituting the sheet product is dissolved in a solvent and bonded.
  • the amount of a component dissolved in the treating solution is small on the adhesive surface, for example, a resin component of a sheet product which contains a large amount of a fiber and a small amount of an impregnating resin is dissolved and bonded, sufficient adhesive force is hardly obtained.
  • a fabric scrim and an elastomer sheet of rubber may be inserted into an intermediate layer as a reinforcement.
  • strength improves but anisotropy is seen in a weaving direction, whereby the obtained product cannot be round unlike natural leather.

Although these treatments may be carried out in any step, they may be carried out after the sheet layers are bonded together by the adhesive layer to avoid the deformation of the substrate caused by tension. For example, when the surface is to be napped, it Is preferred to buff and dye the product in the final step so as to protect the soft sheet and fine nap. When a grain surface structure is to be provided, it is effective to form a porous elastic polymer layer upon the impregnation of the surface of the sheet layer with the elastic polymer and/or to form a non-porous elastic polymer layer by coating in the final step.
  • the present invention is not limited to these and the order may be changed, or other embossing and rubbing steps may be combined.
  • the thus obtained leather-like sheet product has excellent stay properties like natural leather and yet good balance between softness and buckling resistance and is deformed round with fine wrinkles when it is bent and particularly suitable for use in furniture and shoes.
  • the process of the present invention is a production process which suppresses shrinkage in width during processing without reducing the quality of a soft substrate.
  • the present invention provides a leather-like sheet product having leather-like properties with a large leather-likeness index in which a sheet layer ( 1 ) and a sheet layer ( 2 ) both containing a fiber assembly are bonded together by an adhesive layer composed of an elastic polymer (B) so that the adhesive layer is existent as an intermediate layer of the leather-like sheet product and functions as an intermediate layer against the bending deformation of the sheet, and tensile stress and compressive stress (P 3 ) upon large deformation can be made large without increasing flexural resistance (RB) and elastic recovery (ER) upon small deformation, compared with a sheet product composed of only a fiber assembly and an elastic polymer without an adhesive layer.
  • RB flexural resistance
  • ER elastic recovery
  • flexural resistance is expressed by an integral value of the product of the distance from the intermediate layer and stress at that position on the flexural section of the sheet, even if a high-modulus and high-density layer is existent near the intermediate layer, flexural resistance (RB) upon small deformation is not impaired.

Bonding between the elastic polymer (A), the elastic polymer (C) contained in the substrate or the elastic polymer (B) of the adhesive layer and the fiber was observed. When the elastic polymer is adhered to the entire surface of the fiber, it is considered that the elastic polymer is bonded to the fiber.
