| Abstract [eng] |
The present paper discusses the results of a study on quality of mechanical leather softening. Relative elasticity was used as the parameter for evaluation of leather softness after the softening process. The data was obtained during a full-area, non-destructive measurement process. The results show that a uniform softness is difficult to obtain in the entire area due to the lack of required capabilities in softening equipment and softness evaluation methods. A softening method and a softening device developed by the authors as well as a corresponding softening procedure are described here. A conclusion is drawn that the application of this new leather softening method and softening device could result in a more uniform pattern of leather softness. |
