Presstoff (also Preßstoff or Pressstoff) is the German-language term for a type of ersatz or artificial leather used during the first half of the 20th century. It is one of the oldest artificial leather.[1]

It was made from specially layered paper pulp, which was then treated with a specific resin that would bind it together in layers.[2][3]

History

It was invented in the 19th-century Germany. It was widely used during the World War II because natural leather had to be strictly rationed.

In recent times, German consumers began favouring various leather replacements such as Presstoff that are more eco-friendly, as it breaks down easily when it becomes wet.[4][5]

During the war in Poland, Presstoff was commonly known as 'preszpan'.[6]

Presstoff is still produced today.[7]

Military uses during WWII

Presstoff was used in binoculars cases and straps, horse tack, bayonet frogs, equipment belts, cap visors etc. Presstoff was used in almost every application normally filled by leather, except items like footwear where repeated flex wear and moisture cause Presstoff to delaminate.[8][9][10] The task of cleaning Presstoff was almost impossible as once it gets wet, it breaks down.[11]

Haline contraction coefficient

The Haline contraction coefficient, abbreviated as β, is a coefficient that describes the change in ocean density due to a salinity change, while the potential temperature and the pressure are kept constant. It is a parameter in the Equation Of State (EOS) of the ocean. β is also described as the saline contraction coefficient and is measured in [kg]/[g] in the EOS that describes the ocean. An example is TEOS-10.[1] This is the thermodynamic equation of state.[2] β is the sali…
