Abstract:
Leather production poses significant environmental challenges and questions about sustainability. The harmful chemicals, overdrawn water, polluted air and water resources, and contribution to the destruction of forests, are some of the main issues in leather production, and have fueled the search for sustainable alternatives. This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the current status and future prospects of LMM (leather-like mycelium material) in the Indian market. The study begun by elucidating the environmental impact of traditional leather and the need for sustainable innovation. Th

Abstract:
Leather-wood fibreboards are innovative composite materials, which combine together the high mechanical properties of wood with the superior fire behaviour properties of leather. This study deals with the understanding of the combustion mechanism of the wet-white leather panel. During burning, an overlay coating-like surface is formed on top of a foamy structure that creates the heat transfer barrier. The FT-IR spectroscopy results of the leather show the rearrangement of the proteins and the formation of an increasing amount of acid groups when the exposure to hot gun at over 530°C was prolon

Chromium-tanned leathers used in the manufacture of footwear and leather goods pose an environmental problem because they contain harmful chemicals and are very difficult to recycle. A solution to this problem can be composite materials from tree leaves, fruit residues and other fibrous agricultural products, which can replace chromium-tanned leather. The present study describes the preparation of biocomposite leather-like materials from microbial cellulose and maple leave fibers as bio-fillers.

There is a growing demand for finding solutions for transport processes. Skin/hide/leather (S/H/L) is a unique porous material arranged in a three dimensional weave pattern. Leather processing involves diffusion of various chemicals through the pores of the hide/skin/leather matrix. Since most of the unit operations in leather processing are diffusion controlled, diffusion plays a vital role in leather making. It is very important to have insight into diffusion in porous materials like S/H/L which is a micro level phenomenon. Hence comparison of diffusion through skin or leather with macro lev

The steering wheel is among the important components of a vehicle, through it having full control over its direction. It is made of a metal base covered with a polymeric material. To improve the look and feel of a steering wheel, usually it is covered by leather. Choosing the material for covering the steering wheel must be done responsibly, because depending on the material, it can generate a certain type of comfort when using the steering wheel. Thus, the current work aims to evaluate the durability and wear resistance of different types of leather coatings used in automotive steering wheels
