What are the environmental factors that affect the use of silicone leather sofa peeling

‌light condition: Prolonged exposure to strong sunlight will accelerate the aging of the silicone skin, which will cause it to flake. Ultraviolet rays in sunlight can damage the molecular structure of the silicone skin, reducing its strength and durability.

humidity and temperature: Silicone leather sofas are also vulnerable to damage in humid or high-temperature environments. High humidity may cause the silicone skin to absorb water, and then cause expansion and deformation; The high temperature may degrade the chemical components in the silicone skin and accelerate the aging process ‌.

‌Air flow condition: Uncirculated air can cause the surface of the sofa to remain wet for a long time, which also increases the risk of flaking. Therefore, keeping the room well ventilated helps to extend the service life of the silicone leather sofa.

What are the other factors that affect the use of silicone leather sofa peeling?

‌Frequent moving and excessive friction: Silicone leather sofas, if often moved or subjected to excessive friction, will accelerate the wear of their surface, thereby increasing the risk of flaking. Therefore, in daily use, frequent moving of the sofa should be avoided as much as possible, and excessive friction with the sofa surface should be reduced.

Contact with sharp objects: Sharp objects such as knives, hard objects, etc., if in contact with the silicone leather sofa, it is easy to scratch or puncture the surface of the sofa, resulting in spalling. Therefore, in the process of use, care should be taken to avoid letting the sofa contact with sharp objects ‌.

‌Improper cleaning and maintenance: The use of inappropriate cleaning products or methods, as well as the lack of necessary maintenance, can cause damage to the silicone leather sofa, which can lead to flaking. In order to maintain the good condition of the sofa, special silicone skin cleaner should be used for cleaning, and regular use of maintenance products to supplement the surface of the sofa nutrition, enhance its anti-aging ability ‌.

‌Long-term exposure to adverse environments: Although this is more about the external environment, the way it is used is also relevant. For example, if the sofa is placed in direct sunlight, humidity or high temperature environment for a long time, it will accelerate the aging of the silicone skin, resulting in peeling. Therefore, in the process of use, attention should be paid to the reasonable choice of placement of the sofa to avoid long-term exposure to adverse environments.

What are the production process factors that affect the peeling of silicone leather sofa

adhesive bonding technology: Bonding is crucial in the manufacturing process. If the bonding is not firm and mishandled, the combination of silicone leather and the bottom of the sofa will not be tight, thereby increasing the risk of peeling. On the contrary, process standards, such as strong bonding and proper handling, can significantly reduce the possibility of peeling.

Mold design and production: The self-disassembly design of the mold is unreasonable or the better steel is not used in the production, which will lead to the self-disassembly difficulties after a long time of use, which will affect the molding and disassembly of the product, and indirectly increase the risk of spalling. In addition, too many times of mold wear or sandblasting in the production process will also cause rough self-disassembly, affecting the quality of silicone leather sofa ‌.

‌vulcanization technology: Vulcanization temperature and time have a direct effect on the quality of silicone leather. The vulcanization temperature is too high or the time is too long, which will cause the product to become numb or brittle after forming, increasing the risk of spalling. On the contrary, the vulcanization temperature is too low or the time is too short, it may lead to soft silicone products, strong flexibility, and it is not easy to separate the raw edge and the product when removing the edge, which may also affect the durability of the sofa.

In Z.S.R sofa’s silicone leather has high elasticity and wear resistance and is not prone to scratches and wrinkles. In addition, it also has good stain resistance and is not easily penetrated by liquids. Usually, dust and stains can be removed by wiping with a damp cloth.

Silicone leather sofas are softer and more comfortable and can fit the curve of the human body well, providing a comfortable sitting feeling. In addition, the elasticity and softness of silicone leather make sitting on it like sitting on clouds.

The texture and color of silicone leather are very beautiful, giving people a sense of luxury, making furniture using silicone leather is not only practical, but also fashionable, and can meet the needs of home decoration in different styles.

What are the other factors that affect the quality of the peeling material of the silicone leather sofa?

High quality silicone leather has wear resistance, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and other characteristics, not easy to aging, deformation and cracking, so it is not easy to flake after a long time. The low-quality silicone leather material may have problems such as aging and cracking after long-term use, resulting in spalling.

How to test the quality of silicone leather sofa

Feel: The high-quality silicone leather feels soft and smooth, has certain elasticity, can bounce back quickly after pressing, and will not leave obvious marks; The poor quality of silicone leather may feel stiff, rough, poor elasticity, slow recovery after pressing or even unable to return to the original ‌. 

Observe the color: The color of high quality silicone leather is uniform and natural, the color is full and pure, the surface is smooth and delicate, and there is no obvious color difference, color spots or fading phenomenon; If the color of silicone leather is too bright and dazzling, or the color is not uniform, there are different shades of plaque, may not be good quality ‌.

‌Check thickness: Generally speaking, the thicker the thickness of silicone leather, the better the quality and the stronger the durability. You can gently pinch the silicone leather on the surface of the sofa by hand to feel its thickness, or check the silicone leather thickness parameter marked on the product manual ‌. 

Wear test: Use a clean white cloth to wipe several times on the surface of silicone leather, and then observe whether there is a fading phenomenon on the cloth; You can also use a sharp but not sharp object (such as a key) to gently scratch a few times in an inconspicuous part to see if the silicone leather is easy to scratch or leave obvious scratches. High-quality silicone leather usually has good wear resistance and is not easy to fade and scratch.

‌smell: After opening the package, smell the sofa for a pungent odor. If there is a strong pungent smell, it may be that poor quality raw materials or additives are used in the production process of silicone leather, and there may be problems with the quality and environmental protection of this type of sofa; The good quality silicone leather sofa usually has only a light smell of the material itself, which will not cause harm to the human body.

What can be done to prevent the silicone leather sofa from peeling

Choose high quality materials: The selection of high-quality silicone leather materials, these materials have wear resistance, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and other characteristics, not easy to aging, deformation and cracking, so it can maintain the integrity of the sofa for a long time, reduce the risk of peeling.

‌Reasonable use and maintenance：Reasonable use of silicone leather sofa, avoid frequent moving, excessive friction and contact with sharp objects, in order to reduce the extent of damage to the sofa surface. At the same time, regular maintenance of the sofa is also an important measure to prevent peeling. It can be cleaned with a special leather cleaner, and a protective agent can be applied to keep the sofa shiny and flexible.

‌Pay attention to daily maintenance: Check the condition of the sofa regularly to detect and deal with potential peeling problems in a timely manner. For example, if you find a slight scratch or wear on the sofa surface, it can be repaired using a leather repair agent to prevent the problem from getting worse.

Conclusion

Silicone leather sofa may flake after long-term use ‌, the main reasons include material quality, manufacturing process, external environment and use of other factors. By selecting high-quality materials, ensuring that the manufacturing process meets the standards, providing a suitable use environment, rational use and maintenance, and paying attention to daily maintenance and other measures, the peeling problem of silicone leather sofa can be effectively prevented.
