A method for manufacturing synthetic (artificial) leather from non-woven fabric
The present invention relates to a method for adding potential capacities of elasticity and cushioning property to a non-woven fabric used in manufacturing synthetic leather and artificial leather and non-woven fabric synthetic leather and artificial leather which are manufactured using the non-woven fabric, thereby expressing superior elasticity and cushioning property. A non-woven fabric for synthetic leather and artificial leather according to the present invention is manufactured by mixing 5 to 60 wt.% of a water soluble polyvinyl alcohol fiber with a synthetic fiber in the temperature range of 5 to 95 DEG C, wherein elasticity or cushioning property is selectively expressed from the synthetic leather and artificial leather by manufacturing synthetic leather and artificial leather using the non-woven fabric after passing the non-woven fabric through appropriate post-treatment processing. Non-woven fabric synthetic leather and artificial leather having more superior elasticity or cushioning property are manufactured according to the present invention.
