<p>The present invention involves a process of making a powder-free rubber article using a multiple dip process. The process comprises the steps of: a) dipping a former of the desired shape of the article into a composition consisting essentially of an aqueous acrylic ester latex and water soluble salts capable of coagulating a rubber latex; b) dipping the former in step (a) into a rubber latex to produce a second layer; c) leaching the second layer in water; d) curing the first and second layers; and e) stripping the resultant article from the former. The acrylic ester latex is a water insoluble polymer emulsion in water. The polymer is composed predominantly of acrylic ester groups which make up at least 50 % by weight of the polymer.</p> |
