Leather fabric is a kind of fabric processed by special process, usually made of animal fur after hair removal, tanning, leveling, dyeing and other steps. It has the advantages of softness, comfort, durability and warmth, so it is widely used in clothing, shoes, hats, gloves and other fields.

There are many kinds of leather materials, including sheepskin, cowhide, pigskin, horse skin, snakeskin, crocodile skin and so on. Different leather fabrics have different characteristics and uses, and suitable materials can be selected according to needs.

In general, leather fabric is a high-quality, high-grade fabric with high value and market prospects.
 

Artificial leather is a synthetic material that simulates the fiber structure of leather, usually made of plastic, synthetic rubber and filling materials. They have a structure and appearance similar to genuine leather, but are lighter, durable, easier to maintain and cheaper than genuine leather. Artificial leather is widely used in clothing, footwear, handbags and furniture.

The manufacturing process of artificial leather usually includes the following steps: First, raw materials such as plastics and synthetic rubber need to be mixed in a certain proportion, stirred and heated. These mixtures are then pressed into sheets, cooled and processed. Finally, the artificial leather is surface treated, such as coating, printing, etc., to enhance its aesthetics and functionality.

Compared with genuine leather, artificial leather has the following advantages: First, it has a lower cost and can be mass-produced. Secondly, artificial leather is lighter and easier to carry and handle. In addition, artificial leather is more durable and can withstand multiple washes and wear. Finally, the color and texture of artificial leather can be customized, and different styles of products can be made according to different needs.

It should be noted that although artificial leather has advantages in some aspects, it does not have the biomechanical properties and breathability of dermis. Therefore, in the application scenarios requiring high strength and high comfort, leather is still a better choice. At the same time, because some raw materials in artificial leather may have a negative impact on the environment, it is necessary to pay attention to environmental protection and sustainable development during production and use.

In general, artificial leather is an important synthetic material and is widely used in many fields. However, it is necessary to pay attention to maintenance and maintenance during use, and avoid using too sharp or rough objects to touch the surface to maintain its beauty and functionality. At the same time, we should try to choose environmentally friendly and sustainable manufacturing methods and products to reduce the impact on the environment.

Leather is better than artificial leather;
Artificial leather appeared earlier in ancient times. It is made of PVC, plasticizer and other additives calendered on cloth. The advantages are cheap, rich colors and various patterns, but the disadvantage is that it is easy to harden and become brittle.
Genuine dermis;
It is made of animal skins and is conceptually artificial leather made of chemical fiber materials. The dermis is located in the deep layer of the epidermis and is connected with the subcutaneous tissue downwards, with no obvious boundary with the latter. The dermis is composed of dense connective tissue.
The distribution of a variety of connective tissue cells and a large number of collagen fibers elastic fibers, so that the skin is both elastic and tough. The dermis on the market is generally the first layer of leather, two layer of leather, synthetic leather three kinds of one.
Genuine leather has pores, so its breathability is very good. It is very breathable and not stuffy when it is used to make clothes or gloves. Artificial leather, on the other hand, has no pores, poor breathability, and feels stuffy to wear.
The real leather feels soft, elastic and smooth, but the artificial leather is different. The hands will feel astringent and not soft.
