Overview
The text of ISO 17231:2006 has been prepared by the "International Union of Leather Technologists and Chemists Societies" and has been adopted as EN ISO 17231:2011 by Technical Committee CEN/TC 289 "Leather", the secretariat of which is held by UNI (Italy). The responsible national committee is Working Committee NA 062-05-51 AA "Anforderungen und physikalische Prüfverfahren für Leder und seine Ausgangsprodukte" ("Requirements and physical test methods of leather and ..."), Mirror Committee of CEN/TC 289 "Leather" of the Materials Testing Standards Committee (NMP). This International Standard specifies a method for determining the repellency of leather to surface wetting. It is applicable to all leathers intended for use in clothing. The method does not determine the resistance of leather to water penetration.
