Synthetic leather, also called faux, artificial, rexine leather, or leatherette, is a material that has a similar appearance to leather but is not animal-made. It is composed of natural or synthetic fibers that are coated with plastic polymer. Usually, synthetic leather is primarily made from two types of materials – polyurethane (PU) and polyvinylchloride (PVC). Polyurethane leather or PU leather made of thermoplastic polymer is entirely manmade and offers the look and feel of genuine leather. Having a glossier appearance and less thickness than real leather, it is waterproof and easily washable. PU leather is extensively used in the making of furniture and shoes. In contrast, PVC leather is made from vinyl, which is less expensive and a good alternative to genuine leather. When altered with various fillers to change the texture, color, form, and effects, it can be used to manufacture various leather goods. Synthetic leather provides numerous benefits, such as enhanced durability and resistance to water, heat, severe climatic conditions, and UV (ultraviolet) rays.
