<p>Surgeons gloves are made with two or more layers of vulcanised rubber which are adhered over the whole surface between the layers such that the layers perform as one layer, but which layers separate locally when the article is subjected to mechanical damage so that only the outer layer is damaged. Such gloves have better puncture resistance than a single layer surgeons glove, while being less subject to the disadvantages of double donning, such as the loss of sensitivity associated with double donned gloves. The glove is made by dipping a former into rubber latex to form layers with succeeding dipping steps being intervened by a process to reduce the strength of adhesion between the layers. The process comprises applying a partially compatible material (e.g. nitrile rubber latex, a chloroprene rubber latex, acrylic polymer, wax or silicone) to the latex layer.</p> |
