PVC (polyvinylchloride) synthetic leather or called leatherette is being widely used for automotive interior applications for seat cover, gear boot, gap hider, steering wheel and roof liner due to their leather like feel and texture, flexibility, sewability, affordability, and wide design freedom. However, the leatherette construction such as top coating, backing fabric and fabric weaving pattern plays a critical role in the finished leatherette performance for the specific application. This study provides the influence of different coating material and different backing fabric in squeak behavior of gear boot PVC leatherette. The squeak behavior was studied by stick slip test as per automotive engineering requirements, and the response of these coating and fabric surface was measured in the form of Risk Priority Number (RPN).
