The raw materials were stirred for 10 minutes at a stirring speed of 2000 r / min to fully mix the raw materials to form a PU leather color layer slurry and a PU leather foaming layer slurry; The PU leather color layer and the PU leather foaming layer are formed by using the PU leather color layer slurry and the PU leather foaming layer slurry through the release paper coating method, and the PU leather color layer and the base fabric layer are bonded through the PU leather foaming layer to form a PU leather semi-finished product; The water-based modified acrylic polyurethane finishing agent is applied on the surface of the PU leather semi-finished product to prepare the PU leather; The PU leather is punched using a conical punching process to produce perforated, color-transparent PU leather for automotive interiors.

[0039] Comparative Example Comparative Example 1 The perforated transparent PU leather for automobile interior in this comparative example includes a PU leather color layer and a base fabric layer from top to bottom, wherein the specific formula of the PU color layer is: 65 kg of waterborne polyurethane, 30 kg of nano calcium carbonate with a particle size of 100 nm, 2.5 kg of antioxidant and 2.5 kg of colorant; the base fabric layer is made of polyester fiber.

[0041] Performance testing 1. Peel strength The perforated transparent PU leather for automobile interior prepared in the examples and comparative examples was cut into samples of 100 mm×30 mm for performance testing with reference to SATRATM 410. A proper amount of glue was applied to the center of the front side of the sample. Then, the back side of the sample was placed on the fixture of the testing machine so that the glue was in contact with the testing fixture. The testing machine was started and the sample was pulled out at a pulling speed of 100 mm / min per second. The force when the sample was completely removed from the glue was recorded. The test results are shown in Table 1.

[0042] 2. Wear resistance According to GB / T 1768-2008, the perforated color-transparent PU leather for automobile interior prepared in the embodiment and the comparative example was subjected to performance test, and the mass loss of the samples was calculated. The test results are shown in Table 1.

[0043] Table 1 Performance test data of Examples 1-9 and Comparative Example 1 Referring to Table 1, in combination with Examples 1-9 and Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that the perforated color-transparent PU leather for automotive interior of the present application has higher peel strength than the traditional PU synthetic leather bonded with glue. This is because the present application utilizes the bonding properties of the PU leather foaming layer itself during the foaming molding process to compound the PU leather color layer and the base fabric layer. The high bonding strength of this composite cannot be achieved by using an adhesive, so that the PU leather color layer and the base fabric layer are firmly bonded, which can avoid the problem of glue seeping through the holes caused by the use of glue in the traditional method, and the problem of PU perforated leather and the color-transparent base fabric not firmly bonding and causing shedding; in particular, the introduction of adhesive polyacrylic acid into the polyether polyurethane can improve the adhesiveness of the polyether polyurethane; at the same time, the introduction of a hydroxyl-terminated polyurethane prepolymer can effectively slow down the skinning speed of the polyether polyurethane, the solidification speed is fast, and the pore structure is a vertically long structure, so that the obtained PU leather foaming layer has good adhesiveness and small peel strength attenuation.

[0044] With reference to Table 1, in combination with Examples 1, 6-8, it can be seen that adding an appropriate amount of sodium pyrophosphate to the PU foam leather can further improve the peel strength of the perforated transparent PU leather for automotive interior, and calcium pyrophosphate can increase the surface energy and surface activity of the polyether polyurethane, making the adhesion between the layers stronger and not easy to peel off.

[0045] Referring to Table 1, in combination with Examples 1 and 9, it can be seen that the present application is to coat the PU leather color layer with a surface coating coated with a water-based modified acrylic polyurethane finishing agent. The water-based polyurethane finishing agent has the advantages of being environmentally friendly, non-toxic, and pollution-free, and the acrylic acid and the polyurethane molecules react chemically, and the polyurethane and the acrylate achieve complementary advantages in performance. The obtained water-based modified acrylic polyurethane finishing agent has the excellent properties of both polyurethane and acrylate, and has the characteristics of good gloss, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, good weather resistance, water resistance, and good mechanical properties, thereby improving the wear resistance of the perforated transparent PU leather for automotive interiors. At the same time, the present application uses a water-based modified acrylic polyurethane finishing agent to improve the bonding with the PU leather color layer.

[0046] The perforated transparent PU leather for automobile interior prepared in this application not only meets the national mandatory standards, but also has a simple and controllable preparation method with good repeatability. The prepared material has the advantages of low VOC content, low odor, good product feel, high cost performance, and broad market prospects.

After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make modifications to the present embodiment without any creative contribution as needed, but such modifications are protected by the patent law as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present application.
