Plant-based leather, also known as vegan leather or eco-leather, is a type of material made from plant-based sources as an alternative to traditional leather, which is typically made from animal hides. Plant-based leather can be made from a variety of sources, including pineapple leaves, mushrooms, corn, apple peels, and recycled plastic. [1]
wetting back- semi-processed leather is rehydrated. sammying - 45-55%(m/m) water is squeezed out the leather. splitting - the leather is split into one or more horizontal layers. shaving - the leather is thinned using a machine which cuts leather fibres off. neutralisation - the pH of the leather is adjusted to a value between 4.5 and 6.5.
Bonded leather, also called reconstituted leather, is a material that uses leather scraps that are shredded and bonded together with polyurethane or latex onto a fiber mesh. The amount of leather fibers in the mix varies from 10% to 90%, affecting the properties of the product.
Extensive farming can have the following problems: [3] Yields tend to be much lower than with intensive farming in the short term. Large land requirements limit the habitat of wild species (in some cases, even very low stocking rates can be dangerous), as is the case with intensive farming. Less profitable then intensive farming per unit of area.
[20] [21] [22] The entire genome of Quercus robur (the pedunculate oak) has been sequenced, [23] revealing an array of mutations that may underlie the evolution of longevity and disease resistance in oaks. [24] In addition, hundreds of oak species have been compared (at RAD-seq loci), allowing a detailed phylogeny to be constructed.
