The characteristics of PU and PA coated Oxford cloth are different. The reason why they are divided into PA and PU is mainly based on the coating requirements of the required fabric. Most of the features of PU and PA coatings are complementary.
The difference between PU coated Oxford cloth and PA coated Oxford cloth, first of all, look at two points, one is the feel and the other is the gloss. From the hand feel point of view, PA feels astringent, PU is smoother, and PU has better elasticity than PA; from the gloss point of view, PA has no luster, while PU has brighter luster, good elasticity, and a filmy feel. Another difference is that PU has a good film feel and feels like a film to the touch.
Want to distinguish The difference between the two fabrics can be seen in that PU is brighter, has good elasticity, and has a filmy feel, while PA does not have these conditions. If you are new to these two fabrics, it may be difficult to distinguish them using these characteristics. There are two tips to distinguish them: use a rubber to press hard on the cloth and then lift it up. PA will stick to the rubber but PU will not stick to it; Put a few drops of toluene on the coated surfaces of these two pieces of cloth, and then rub them gently (do not touch the toluene directly with your hands). The PA coating will fall off, but the PU will not.
