What are polymer coated gloves

An individual protective equipment when working in industrial enterprises is special gloves made of polymeric materials. They are designed for safe work of employees with wood, metal, chemicals, current. In gloves with a polymer coating it is convenient to carry out agricultural work. Feature: Clear grip. For these purposes, coated gloves are available:

• polymer;
• polyurethane;
• PVC coated
• nitrile;
• pitted;
• nylon personal protective equipment;
• insulated;
• frost resistant.

Where apply

The scope of gloves made of polymeric materials is wide. For example, point-coated gloves are used for homework, in agriculture, and for car service. Working gloves, fish processing gloves have higher protection: in the manufacture of applied partial drenching, special fabrics. To work with alkalis, acids, in medicine, another protective material is used: polymer, neoprene, nitrile. PVC coated gloves are perfect for those who do small finger work.

Types of gloves with a polymer coating

Several types of protective gloves are available. Each of them is intended for certain works. The protective material is as follows:

1. PVC or polyvinyl chloride (vinyl) – resistant to acids and alkalis, mineral oils, organic solvents, resistant to abrasion.
2. Nitrile or artificial rubber is resistant to petroleum products, alkalis, disinfectant fluids, biofluids, acids. Nitrile personal protective equipment is used in medicine, cosmetology. They retain grip, do not slip.

There is a frost-resistant version of mittens that protect from the cold: alaska, partial or rubber cuffs, fleece cotton base. The gloves are dipped in triple immersion. The increased protection category also includes rubberized gloves made of natural latex or Hevea tree juice, polyurethane, which is not afraid of the effects of fuels and lubricants and solvents, neoprene, resistant to aggressive substances and concentrated acids, does not interact with chemicals.

How to choose polymer coated gloves

The choice of polymer gloves depends on the conditions under which they will be used. To protect against:

• mechanical damage means of protection are selected from cotton, knitwear, leather;
• acids, alkalis, chemicals are selected from latex, nitrile, neoprene;
• elevated temperatures need gloves from thick leather, heat-resistant materials, high strength;
• low temperatures are selected frost-resistant, knitted, leather with special tints;
• for accuracy: soft materials;
• in medicine: latex products, vinyl, polyethylene.

For convenience, protective equipment of the appropriate size is selected. You need to choose it correctly so that the gloves do not slip, firmly sit on your hand. There are three universal sizes: S – small, M – medium, L – large. To determine the size more accurately, you need:

3. Divide by a factor of 2.7.
4. Round the resulting value to an integer – this is the size of the gloves.
