The main ingredients of plastic gloves include ethylene copolymers, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyethylene (PE) and thermoplastic elastomers (TPE).
Ethylene copolymer: This is one of the most common materials in plastic gloves. Ethylene copolymer is a synthetic resin with advantages such as high strength, toughness and chemical resistance, which is suitable for making gloves. In addition, it has high transparency, which is convenient for checking the wearing condition of hands.
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC): PVC gloves are made by special process, do not contain allergens, are powder-free, have low dust emission, low ion content, and do not contain plasticizers, esters, silicone oil and other ingredients. PVC gloves have strong chemical resistance, good flexibility and touch, and are suitable for use in dust-free environments.
PE: PE gloves are usually made of low-density polyethylene (LDPE), high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) by blown film pressing. PE gloves are disposable gloves with good flexibility and durability.
Thermoplastic elastomer (TPE): TPE gloves are made of thermoplastic elastomer material, which is soft, elastic and environmentally friendly. TPE material does not contain latex protein, has good air permeability and biodegradability, and has little impact on the environment. Although its chemical resistance is low, it does not contain plasticizers and is environmentally safe.
