Biomass Comfortable and Environmentally Friendly Simulated Leather Sole Materials
This paper selected natural rubber( NR) with excellent elasticity and toughness,and styrene-butadiene rubber( SBR) with outstanding wear resistance,as well as high styrene( HS) with exceptional flex resistance as the main substrates.Chemical additives like silane coupling agents were used to surface-treat leather powder,promoting its dispersion within the matrix and enhancing its compatibility with the rubber matrix.Through optimal processing conditions,NR,SBR and HS were blended in a ratio of 50:50:60.Additionally,100 parts of scraps leather fibres surface-treated with silane coupling agents ( Si69,KH550) or urea are added,significantly improving the physical and mechanical properties of the leather fiber-rubber composites.The modified scraps leather fibers can prepare high-strength simulated leather soles with excellent wear resistance,folding resistance,tensile strength,tear resistance,and anti-slip properties.
