Elastomeric articles with improved damp slip

An elastomeric glove comprising:

• a primary matrix comprising an elastomeric polymer at a first surface, the elastomeric polymer initially containing epoxide groups at the surface, wherein the first surface is a donning side;
• a fluorocarbon moiety grafted to the elastomeric polymer with an ester linkage formed by reaction with the epoxide groups;
• and
• a silicone lubricant applied to the donning side, the silicone lubricant comprising an amino-modified silicone.

A process for forming an elastomeric article comprising:

• forming a primary matrix on a former, the primary matrix comprising an unsaturated elastomeric polymer located on a first surface, the polymer containing epoxide groups;
• grafting a fluorocarbon moiety to the elastomeric polymer with an ester linkage by reaction with the epoxide groups;
• applying modified silicone which displays polar functionality to the first surface, thereby forming the article;
• and
• stripping the article from the former.
