The density of the skin can be concluded on the porosity and degree of filling. Recall that the surface area depending on the density of the skin should not exceed the limit of 600 g / m2. In this case, the minimum thickness of the skin should be 0.3 mm, and the maximum not more than 8 mm.
  Water and air permeability characterizes the presence of pores in the skin, therefore, depending on the porosity, air permeability increases or decreases.
