2023-03-08Advantages and disadvantages of four common disposable gloves:
1、 PE gloves
Raw material: PE, new HDPE, LDPE, LLDPE
Strengths: good quality, low price, wide use
Disadvantages: relatively thin, not suitable for long-term use, suitable for one-time use
2、 Nitrile gloves
Raw material: NBR, a synthetic rubber, mainly composed of butadiene
Strengths: no allergy, degradable, can add pigment, and the color is more beautiful
Disadvantages: poor elasticity, higher price than latex products
3、 PVC gloves
Raw material: PVC
Strengths: low price, can add pigment, bright color
Disadvantages: it contains high plasticizer (the world’s recognized public enemy of health), volatile and harmful gases when heated, and is not degradable
4、 Latex gloves
Raw material: natural latex
Advantages: good elasticity and degradability
Disadvantages: natural latex contains proteogen, which may cause allergy in some people. To deal with this problem, we can use nitrile rubber (a kind of synthetic rubber) to make gloves. Because nitrile rubber does not contain proteogen, it will not be allergic at all.
