Abstract
A method for treating a leather, characterized by treating a leather with a polymer [II] obtained by polymerizing 5 to 2,000 parts by weight of at least one member selected from the group consisting of acrylic esters and methacrylic esters in which the alcohol moiety is a hydrocarbon- or halohydrocarbon-group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, and 500 parts by weight or less of at least one vinyl compound having the formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.I and R.sup.II are independently a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a hydrocarbon- or halohydrocarbon-group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, or Y; Y is a group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms and having a group selected from the group consisting of a carboxyl group, acid halide groups, a hydroxyl group, ether groups, and oxygen-containing cyclic compound residues; R.sup.III is an oxygen atom or >N-R.sup.IV wherein R.sup.IV is a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbon- or halohydrocarbon-group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, in the presence of 100 parts by weight of a copolymer [I] comprising as essential components at least one monoethylenically unsaturated ester compound having 4 to 22 carbon atoms, at least one member selected from the group consisting of monoethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbon compounds having 2 to 20 carbon atoms and halogen-substituted derivatives thereof and, if necessary, at least one diene or polyene compound. The thus treated leather causes no color bleed, has no tackiness, and has a coating film high in strength and impact resistance.
