Summary:Apr 26,2021

Since the beginning of the European industry, in the manufacture of enamel leather, a base coat of soot powder and linseed oil has been applied to the surface of the oil. Apply successive coats of the mixture, dry the skin, and smooth the surface with pumice after each coat. Then use the black liquid mixed with turpentine to darken the skin again, and then hang it to dry. After the skin has settled and been stacked for at least one month (if possible), the leather is nailed to the frame and varnished. Bake in a medium fire oven. The temperature gradually increased, and the baking lasted 3 days. The whole process can be done by exposing it to the sun for 10 hours. Recently, the products and methods used by American manufacturers to manufacture patent leather are very different. Compared with tanned leather, this kind of leather has a softer, more flexible and less polished finish. Compared with the brittle and non-flexible leather made by the old process, this kind of leather is less cracked and suitable for use. For shoes.

In general, patent leather is a fine-grained leather that has been treated to give it a glossy look. Patent leather was mentioned as early as 1793 in the British periodicals "Bee" or "Informant" in "Literature Weekly". The book, titled "Patent Leather of Hands," was patented by the United Kingdom for Birmingham's "Gentleman in Handname." A patent that manufactures soft leather with luster and luster that becomes impermeable just by wiping with a sponge and regains its original luster. In November 1799, Holborn's inventor, Edmund Praia, in London, England, obtained a patent. Methods used to paint and color various leathers; in 1805, the inventor  patented a combination of chemicals. "Beautiful luster". However, the main achievement of patent leather is Sesboyden.

 

In 1818, Boyden received German-made patent leather (known as the cover of the German military cap) from a local carriage manufacturer and could use it to produce such treated leather in the United States.This material is arguably more beautiful than work boots and similar leather products, but still maintains ideal protection and durability. By reverse engineering European patent leather, he found a way to make his own patent leather. This new shiny leather went into commercial production on September 20, 1819, using a series of coatings based on flaxseed oil. Thanks to Boyden's efforts, the production of smooth paint leather has rapidly become widespread and complements formal wear. Boyden has never applied for a patent for his invention process.
