Characteristics Analysis of High Mechanical Strength Gymnastic Leather and Its Producing Process Optimization

Content:
With the development of China sports, researches related to sports leather should be paid attention because they usually required higher strength than commonly used leather. In this paper, we focus on the production of gymnastics leather. In gymnastics, the athlete's hand will have high intensity contact with the balance bar, so the gymnastics leather is required to have high intensity performance. At the same time, in order to comply with the ornamental function, gymnastics leather is required to be light color. In this research, glutaraldehyde was used as the main tanning agent, while acrylic polymer and synthetic were used for retanning, in order to obtain high strength, environmentally friendly white gym leather. The shrinkage temperature and mechanical properties of tanned leather were determined and analyzed to determine the suitable tanning agent. Besides, other properties including softness, gas permeability, water permeability, flexing resistance and yellowing-resistance were also measured for selecting proper production process. Therefore, gymnastics leather with ideal performance can be prepared by this method, and the leather conforms to the practical application standard. In addition, the research has guiding significance and application prospect for high strength chrome-free tanned leather.
Take-Away:
Aldehyde tanning agents and retanning agents, which can be used for gymnastics leather making, were evaluated and selected to achieve ideal effect of finish leather.
This research is meaningful to produce not only gymnastics leather but also other sporty leather which require high strength.
