Disclosed is a silicone dipped glove, comprising a glove core and a dipping layer. The dipping layer is a silicone mixed compound layer, and the silicone mixed compound layer is composed of the following components at the following proportions by weight: 70-90% of silicone, 5-20% of a curing agent, 5-20% of a diluent, and 0-10% of a color paste. The silicone mixed compound layer of the present invention is composed of silicone, a curing agent and a diluent.

A co-injection nozzle is disclosed that includes a combining means configured to reduce shear heating and create a more even shear heating profile in core and skin material flow streams. The combining means is configured to reduce shear heating peaks and valleys in core and skin material flow streams as the streams flow between annular channels of the combining means during a mold filling process.

The invention relates to an elastomeric article made from a cured product of synthetic latex composition, characterized by a base polymer; a solubilized polyvalent metal hydroxide having a pH above 9.0 at a range of 0.0001 to 0.20 phr; a milled polyvalent metal oxide; an alkali solution for solubilizing the polyvalent metal hydroxide; and fillers at 0.5 phr minimum for manufacturing the elastomeric article with biodegradable properties; wherein said elastomeric article having thickness of 0.001 to 5 mm; tensile strength of 7 MPa; and elongation of 300% minimum. The invention also relates to the method to manufacture the elastomeric article, comprising preparing a former for shaping the elastomeric article; dipping the former into a coagulant solution; drying the coagulant-coated former; dipping the dried coagulant-coated former into a synthetic latex composition to create the elastomeric article; followed by pre-leaching; vulcanizing; surface treating; post-leaching; applying donning aid; drying and stripping the elastomeric article from the former.

A dispensing device for dosing material, preferably powdered molding compound suitable for use with rotational molding machines. The device includes a hopper for receiving and storing the material to be dispensed and a dispensing system that transfers an exact amount of material to a container based upon information contained on an identifying tag of the container that is read by a scanner of the device.

A variable textured breast implant can be formed using a mandrel and a shield device. The shield device can receiving a stem and posterior section of the mandrel to provide a seal between a base engaging surface of the shield device and a posterior section of the mandrel such that multiple layers of elastomer and texturing particles can be applied to the mandrel and the shield device to form texture layers along only an anterior region of an elastomeric shell. Thereafter, the texture layers of the shell can be partially cured and the texturing particles can be removed from the texture layers to form a first textured surface on the anterior region of the shell. The first textured surface can thus define interconnected pores that extend at least about two to about five pore diameters deep into the shell outer surface.
