Synthetic resin skin material and manufacturing method thereof

A method for manufacturing a synthetic resin skin material, the method comprising:

• forming a skin layer containing a urethane resin using a composition for forming a skin layer containing a urethane resin;
• forming a thermoplastic resin layer having a storage elastic modulus at 160° C. of 2,000,000 Pa or less measured in accordance with JIS K 7244 (1998) by applying, to one side of the skin layer, a composition for forming the thermoplastic resin layer, the composition for forming the thermoplastic resin layer containing a polyvinyl chloride resin having a storage elastic modulus at 160° C. of 2,000,000 Pa or less measured in accordance with JIS K 7244 (1998), and a plasticizer in an amount of 35 to 120 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the polyvinyl chloride resin, to form a laminate of the skin layer and the thermoplastic resin layer;
• adhering a base fabric to a surface of the laminate at a side of the thermoplastic resin layer;
• and
• bringing an embossing roller into contact with the laminate on a surface at a side of the skin layer, the laminate having the base fabric adhered thereto, to perform embossing to form recesses, wherein, in forming the recesses, recesses, having a depth, in a thickness direction of the synthetic resin skin material, that extends from the skin layer to an inner part of the base fabric, past a boundary that is present between the thermoplastic resin layer and the base fabric, are formed at the surface at the side of the skin layer of the laminate,
• wherein the skin layer of the synthetic resin skin material has a thickness of from 20 to 200 μm.
