Standard Test Method for Cracking Resistance of Leather

Importancia y uso:

5.1 This test method is designed to determine the cracking resistance of the grain or finish surface of leather on a pass/fail basis. This test method attempts to replicate the conditions that may be encountered by leather that is bent around a buckle frame or other anchoring device, folded over in seams or welts, and so forth. The cracking resistance of leather is influenced by many factors such as quantity, location, and type of fatliquoring materials; moisture content; thickness; the presence of defects or scar tissue, or both; the presence of processing damages to the skin or hide tissue; finish system formulation, and so forth. This test method is useful for manufacturing control in the tannery, specification acceptance, and quality control in the end product manufacturing plant.
