Hello everyone, I am a safety faction, and today's safety science knowledge is here - what is nitrile gloves.
As an important personal protective equipment, nitrile gloves are widely used in many fields such as medical, industrial, and laboratory.
With the increase in international**, understanding the standards of different countries and regions is essential to choose the right nitrile gloves. This article will introduce the differences between the three main standards of national standard, European standard and American standard, ** material composition, product model and application scenarios of nitrile gloves.
1.Standard comparison
National Standard (GB).
gb 4806.9-2016：Nitrile rubber for food contact materials and products.
gb/t 29511-2013：Medical latex examination gloves.
gb 7543-2006：Medical rubber examination gloves.
European Standard (EN).
en 455：Requirements and tests for gloves used in medical devices.
en 374：Personal protective equipment contaminated with chemicals and microorganisms.
en 388：Mechanical Risk Personal Protective Equipment.
American Standard (ASTM).
astm d3578：Standard specification for nitrile examination gloves.
astm d6319：Standard specification for nitrile medical examination gloves.
astm d6977：Standard Guide to Nitrile Medical Gloves.
2.Material composition.Nitrile gloves are mainly made of nitrile rubber, and their advantages include chemical resistance, abrasion resistance, puncture resistance, and dairy-free protein. In addition to nitrile, other materials such as non-slip coatings or reinforcements may be added to the gloves to improve the performance of the gloves.
3.Product model.ansell touchntuff 92-600：A common nitrile glove that meets a number of standards and is suitable for chemical, laboratory and other fields.
halyard purple nitrile：Medical nitrile gloves that meet ASTM standards and are used in medical environments such as operating rooms and clinics.
kimberly-clark kleenguard g10：Industrial-grade nitrile gloves, resistant to chemicals, suitable for manufacturing and other fields.
4.Application scenarios.Medical Industry:Nitrile gloves are widely used in medical settings such as operating rooms, clinics, laboratories, etc., to protect healthcare workers from infections and chemicals.
Industrial Sector:In the chemical, manufacturing and other industries, nitrile gloves can protect workers from harmful substances such as chemicals and greases.
Laboratory:In the laboratory, nitrile gloves can be used to handle chemicals, biological samples, etc., to protect the safety of experimenters.
5.Detailed explanation of the standard.National Standard (GB).The national standard mainly focuses on the safety and applicability of the product, such as chemical resistance.
European Standard (EN).The European standard focuses on the protective performance and durability of gloves, and has detailed testing standards for medical devices, chemical contact, etc.
American Standard (ASTM).American Standard emphasizes the manufacturing process and performance requirements of the product, and has specific regulations on the physical properties and chemical properties of the glove.
Conclusion.As an important personal protective equipment, the standardized production and use of nitrile gloves are essential to ensure people's health and safety.
Understanding the standards of different countries and regions, as well as the material composition, product models and application scenarios of nitrile gloves, can help you choose the right gloves and use them correctly to maximize work efficiency and safety.
ps: hello everyone, I am a security faction, if you want to know more about the safety operation content of the industry, or personal protection products (PPE) related information, high-altitude operations, limited space training and other related information, you can follow me or leave a message, I will reply to you as soon as possible.
