  • Patent number: 12018339
    Abstract: An apparatus for dry-manufacturing recycled leather comprises air-laid material; and recycled leather manufactured using the apparatus for dry-manufacturing recycled leather. The apparatus for dry-manufacturing recycled leather molds leather fibers and general fibers, which are mixed using air-laid material, and thus a conventional carding process is not required, and recycled leather manufactured thereby has a high tensile strength.

  • Patent number: 11993869
    Abstract: Provided are leather fibers for yarn. The leather fibers forming the yarn are obtained from cowhide. An amount of the leather fibers having an H value of 30 or more is 30% by weight or more of a total leather fibers contained in the yarn. The H value is defined by the following Equation 2: [Equation 2] H=L/D where L: leather fiber length, and D: leather fiber thickness. A thickness index (M) of the leather fibers satisfies Equation 1: [Equation 1] M=D1/D2?60 where D1: an average thickness of 0 fibers having a highest thickness in 1 mg of leather fibers, and D2: an average thickness of 10 fibers having a lowest thickness in 1 mg of leather fibers.

  • Patent number: 10612103
    Abstract: A method of preparing recycling leather sheets comprise: pre-processing where leather wastes are neutralized and fatliquoring agents are adhered; separating leather fibers from the leather wastes that has undergone the pre-processing; mixing the separated leather fibers with fibers for improving a tensile strength of the separated leather fibers; and forming sheets by combining the mixed leather fibers and raw fabrics for floor. The method of preparing recycling leather sheets in the present invention may reduce environmental pollution by preparing recycling leather sheets through physical combination without using adhesives.
