How are nitrile gloves chemical resistance?

Nitrile gloves are widely used industrial protective equipment, so here are the chemical resistance of nitrile gloves.

1. Butyric gloves can effectively prevent organic solvents, its main advantages are high strength, high elasticity. It is mainly used for working stations where the hands are regularly exposed to liquid chemicals, such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, alkali resistant primer, sodium hydroxide solution, ferric chloride solution, etc.

2. When wearing nitrile gloves for some cleaning operations, because some products will have some sharp edges, and these sharp edges are easy to penetrate the nitrile gloves, and once through even a small hole, it is enough to let the cleaning agent into the inside of the gloves, so that the whole glove is useless. Therefore, in addition to the requirements of careful operation in use, some industries also wear gloves plus finger sets.

3.Nitrile gloves have no resistance to some highly corrosive things, so when used, be sure to look at the instructions, to see what it can be used in the field, do not exceed its scope of application, such as some high acid, high corrosion of some things is completely not allowed,(for example, dimethylformamide, trichloromethane, dichloroethane, formic acid, benzaldehyde, butyl acetate, etc.) Then we can only use special gloves.

Specific nitrile gloves chemical resistance :

Acetic acid 10%
Benzalkonium chloride
Chlorhexidine digluconate 4%
Ethanol 20%
Formaldehyde 15%
Formaldehyde 37%
Glutaraldehyde 50%
Hydrogen peroxide 30%
Nitric acid 10%
Nitric acid 36%
Paraformaldehyde 50%
Phenol 1%
Povidone-iodine 10%
Sodium hydroxide 40%
Sulphuric acid 47%

4.Nitrile gloves are generally thin and elastic, so pay special attention to when wearing, must be worn from between the fingers, and then slowly pull up.

5.Nitrile gloves generally have a certain use period, use should pay attention to check its use period, after a certain time, this glove will age, and even crack, so as not to play any protective role. Suggest that the time of wearing disposable nitrile gloves should not be too long, and we can check whether there is any breakage before using them. Nitrile gloves will embrittle after being used for a long time, and cracks will continue to occur after embrittlement, which will completely fail to have all safety protection effects!

If in the laboratory, wearing nitrile gloves to touch this chemical for a long time, it is very easy to be etched, to understand nitrile gloves on the safety of this experimental reagent is poor protection performance. But when doing a test, it is necessary to wear protective gloves, if both hands encounter this kind of chemical drug immediately, it is easier to cause damage to the skin, wear protective gloves to get, still can have to avoid liquid splashing to the arm skin, reduce the effect of arm damage.

We should remember that protective gloves are also an essential protective weapon and equipment to maintain the life safety and physical and mental health of employees in the production process. Whether it is industrial production, biochemical experiments, or medical protection, protective gloves play a key role in reducing occupational diseases.
