Estimating the term…
Powder-free natural rubber and synthetic elastomer gloves having an inner coating of a nitrile rubber with an intermediate layer of a rubber blend comprised of natural or synthetic rubber and nitrile rubber interposed between the nitrile coating and the base glove and their method of manufacture are described. The intermediate layer of the rubber blend interposed between the coating and the glove imparts a unique surface texture to the glove which aids donning and eliminates self-sticking of the inner glove surfaces, especially after the glove has been sterilized by radiation. Additionally the gloves of the invention exhibit good grippability, good donnability, superior tensile strength, elongation to break and stress at 500% elongation.
A powder-free elastomeric glove having an internal surface comprising a first elastomeric layer, a second intermediate layer of a rubber blend comprised of a synthetic rubber and nitrile rubber disposed on said first layer and a third nitrile rubber coating layer disposed on said intermediate layer.
A process for making a powder-free elastomeric glove having an internal surface comprising a first elastomeric layer, a second intermediate layer of a rubber blend comprised of a synthetic rubber and nitrile rubber disposed on said first layer and a third nitrile rubber coating disposed on said intermediate layer, comprising the steps of:
