Nitrile Gloves
Nitrile gloves are disposable gloves made of synthetic rubber that mimic latex. Nitrile gloves have the effect of anti-oil, mainly used in factories, oil fields, repair plants. although they share some physical properties with natural rubber gloves, nitrile gloves are more resistant to wear. And they don’t contain any latex protein, therefore will not cause allergic reaction. In addition, studies have shown that nitrile gloves are also more resistant to chemicals and punctures. Nitrile gloves provide reliable protection against animal fats, solvents, bases, and a variety of oils, but they react to certain organic solvents and ketones, so be extra careful when handling certain solvents.

Testing for Medical Antibacterial Gloves
- Sterility Test: Sterility tests should be performed in accordance with the latest edition of the United States pharmacopoeia.
- Freedom from Holes: The no-hole free test shall be conducted in accordance with test method D 5151.
- The gloves shall be aged in accordance with Test Method D573. Test the gloves in accordance with either one of the following methods: Before aging, at the temperature of 70 + 2°C for 166 + 2 hours, the tensile strength should not be less than 14 Mpa, and the ultimate elongation should not be less than 500%; after accelerated aging , at the temperature of 100 + 2°C for 22 + 0.3 hours, the tensile strength should not be less than 14 Mpa, and the ultimate elongation should not be less than 400%.
- Powder free gloves and powdered gloves are tested with test method D6124 to determine powder residue.
