Textured glove and a synthetic latex formulation for producing the same

Abstract

An elastomeric glove includes a superimposed texture provided on a surface of the elastomeric glove, including front and back of a palm region, a thumb region and fingers region. The superimposed texture includes multiple units of a stellate convex polygon distributed on the surface of the elastomeric glove, with a tip at the center and folded at intersects of the polygon for gripping, diverting and channelling fluid away from the surface of the elastomeric glove. The stellate convex polygon includes a plurality of outward-facing corner vertices and plurality of inward-facing vertices, with equal sides connecting each of the plurality of outward-facing corner vertices to adjacent inward-facing vertices. Each of the inward-facing vertices has an exterior angle of 138 to 146 degrees, and each of the outward-facing corner vertices has an interior angle of 46 to 52 degrees. A synthetic latex formulation for producing the elastomeric glove is also disclosed.
