An ambidextrous glove for facilitating accurate tactility and dexterity on the distal finger pad tips. The glove has finger tip inserts facilitating tactile sensitivity. The inserts are located between the finger tips and first joint on both sides of at least the thumb, index finger, and middle finger. Optionally, the glove is turned inside out. Holes are cut in both sides of the finger tip. The inserts are adhered to the finger tip to cover the holes. If the glove was turned inside out, it is turned outside out.

The described invention relates to an ambidextrous working glove having fish scale-textured inner and outer surfaces and methods of making same.

The present disclosure relates to a protective glove, which has different polymer layers arranged in a multi-layered polymer composite material. According to the present disclosure, the protective glove contains polyvinyl alcohol and a protective layer on top of this containing a fluorinated elastomer. The present disclosure also relates to a method for manufacturing a protective glove of this kind. The combination of various polymers and their arrangement in the polymer composite material achieve a powerful protective action against a multitude of chemical compound classes while simultaneously producing advantageous mechanical properties.

The described invention relates to an ambidextrous working glove having fish scale-textured inner and outer surfaces and methods of making same. The textured outer surfaces include a series of protruding ridges surrounded by depressions. The textured inner surfaces are the reverse of the textured outer surfaces and include a series of islands surrounded by channels. The textured outer surfaces and textured inner surfaces provide advantageous grip properties.

Waterproof, breathable garments and methods of making are provided. The garments may include a laminate of a seamless ePTFE membrane and at least one textile. The garment is conformable over a range of sizes, and may be shaped to fit numerous sizes and shapes of forming molds. The ePTFE membrane may shrink to fit, or, alternatively, be stretched to fit, a mold having a desired size to form a garment. Such a conformable ePTFE membrane may allow for forming multiple sizes of garments with various sizes and shapes of molds. In embodiments where the ePTFE membrane is seamless and continuous, the garment eliminates the need for a waterproof seam tape, which is conventionally used to make garments waterproof.

A multi-layer glove has a first glove layer and a second glove layer. A pathogen resistant substance is positioned between the first glove layer and the second glove layer.

The described invention relates to an ambidextrous working glove having fish scale-textured inner and outer surfaces and methods of making same.

Various embodiments disclosed relate to anti-static compositions and gloves made from the same. In various embodiments, the present invention provides a doped polyaniline comprising a dopant that is a polyacrylic acid; a polymethacrylic acid; a sulfonatocalixarene; a cyclodextrin sulfate; a compound having the structure:

##STR00001##

wherein R.sup.2 is chosen from substituted or unsubstituted (C.sub.1-C.sub.10)hydrocarbyl- and substituted or unsubstituted (C.sub.1-C.sub.10)hydrocarbyl-O—. L.sup.1 is substituted or unsubstituted (C.sub.1-C.sub.10)hydrocarbylene. L.sup.2 is chosen from a bond, —O—, —O—C(O)—, and —NH—C(O)—, and n is about 1 to about 100,000; a salt thereof; or a combination thereof.

The present invention relates to a disposable safety glove system featuring a plurality of layers of inter-nested gloves that are worn simultaneously by a user. The improved disposable glove system of the present invention allows a user to peel away the outermost layer of gloves to reveal a new and sterile set of gloves. The glove system also features a relatively thick wristband to support the plurality of glove layers, a tab that can be used to easily peel off the outermost glove layer once the same has been used and a new pair of gloves is desired, and a numbering system that alerts the user to how many glove layers remain in the glove stack.

An ambidextrous or hand-specific glove including a wrist region, a palm region, and a digit region. The glove may be fabricated of nitrile rubber that is free of or essentially free of zinc, sulfur and accelerators to reduce allergic reactions in populations required to frequently wear protective gloves. A band region that partially or fully encircles a user's finger knuckles may be provided for easier finger bending. Texturing may be provided on glove surfaces that are used to grip articles. The fingertip regions on the front surface of the index and middle finger regions may be un-textured or smooth to enable a user to take a patient's pulse. These fingertip regions may be of reduced or smaller diameter and circumference so as to pull the glove material tightly around the tips of the user's finger and thereby applying pressure thereto so that even a faint pulse in a patient may be detected.
