Disclosed is a flexible barrier glove manufactured by coating a glove liner with a mixture that includes polyurethane resin and an antibacterial agent.

In accordance with embodiments of the invention, a wig grip is provided. The wig grip includes an elastomeric body having a hair contact side opposite a wig contact side and a first end opposite a second end. A plurality of hair attachment members disposed along the hair contact side of the elastomeric body. The hair attachment members are operable to attach to the hair of a user. A plurality of grip members is disposed along the wig contact side of the elastomeric body. The grip members are operable to engage and retain an underside of a wig. A fastener is operable to connect said first end of the elastomeric body to said second end of the elastomeric body.

The present invention relates to a method including a rubber-like film-based article of which at least a portion is firmly fixed to a substrate. The method includes providing a film-based article made of a non-crosslinked thermoplastic rubber, contacting at least a portion of the film-based article with a substrate so as to form a contact area between the film-based article and the substrate, and heat sealing at least a portion of the contact area at a temperature of 190 to 250° C. for at least 1 second.

The present invention is an improvement to surgical gown with two distinctive features. 1) the back of the gown and the back of the gown sleeves are a contrasting or bright color and 2) these same two-toned gown areas, back of sleeves and gown back top to bottom could also have a resin painted on that would transfer to any object it comes into contact with. Resin transfer will result in a visible change in the gown, a color change and/or bare spot in the resin loss region of the gown.

A detachable glove comprising at least two layers that are separated by an adhesive layer, wherein the adhesive layer includes a wetting agent, a latex coagulating agent, a synthetic organic polymer and water. A chlorinated detachable bi-layered glove and a method of manufacturing thereof. A polymer coated, detachable, bi-layered glove and a method of manufacturing thereof. A method of peeling a detachable bi-layered glove wherein the method includes (i) pulling cuff area of the outer glove layer until its circumference is detached from the inner glove layer and (ii) peeling off the outer glove layer once the full circumference of the outer glove layer is detached from the inner glove layer to yield the inner glove layer for further usage.

Mesh materials for the controlled release of antimicrobial and antiviral compounds, with high antiviral activity and efficacy, predominantly against coronavirus, and a method for producing mesh materials with inclusion compounds of bisbiguanide:cyclodextrin, using mesh materials selected from polymers, fibers, nonwoven fabric, fabrics, paper and cellulose, individually or in combination, or a combination of one or more of these mesh materials with adhesives. The mesh materials impregnated, extruded, saturated, coated or laminated with inclusion compounds have been shown to be effective in the deactivation/destruction of viral particles. In fabrics, the inclusion compounds exhibited virucidal activity for all of the viruses in the coronavirus group for contact times of above 2 minutes, with the effect thereof lasting for more than 30 days. The mesh materials for controlled release of antivirals have displayed activity which is up to 1000 times more effective than the use of unencapsulated chlorhexidine.

A glove including a cured film of an elastomer containing a (meth)acrylonitrile-derived structural unit, an unsaturated carboxylic acid-derived structural unit and a butadiene-derived structural unit in a polymer main chain, wherein the elastomer contains 20 to 40% by weight of a (meth)acrylonitrile-derived structural unit, 1 to 10% by weight of an unsaturated carboxylic acid-derived structural unit and 50 to 75% by weight of a butadiene-derived structural unit, and has a crosslinked structure of a carboxyl group in the unsaturated carboxylic acid-derived structural unit with an epoxy crosslinker containing an epoxy compound having three or more epoxy groups in one molecule.

A footwear article, the footwear article including a sock having a proximal end and a distal end, the proximal end having an opening configured to receive a human foot and the distal end terminating in a curved closed cavity configured to receive a toe portion of the human foot, the distal end and the proximal ended defining an tubular body therebetween, the tubular body having a curved heel portion proximate the opening of the distal end, the heel portion extending to the toe portion forming a sole portion on an underside of the sock and a rubber layer disposed on at least a portion of the underside of the sock.

A functional fabric is formed by bonding a polyester synthetic resin film mixed with carbon black fine particles to a fabric, in which the synthetic resin film is non-porous and has a thickness of 10 μm to 20 μm. The functional fabric is produced by producing a polyester synthetic resin film mixed with carbon black fine particles and bonding the synthetic resin film to a fabric, and the produced functional fabric is entirely or partially bonded to an inner wear or an intermediate clothes to produce clothing.

An article has a coating film layer that covers the article. A plurality of recessed portions is formed on the coating film. The plurality of recessed portions is formed of: a plurality of hemispherical recessed portions having an approximately circular shape as viewed in a plan view; and a plurality of diaphragm provided recessed portions formed such that two or more hemispherical recessed portions are connected to each other in a partially overlapping manner and a connection boundary between the recessed portions is partitioned by a diaphragm. In a method for forming a coating film layer which covers a surface of an article and on which a plurality of recessed portions are formed, a liquid droplet of a solidifying agent is made to impinge on an unsolidified elastic material that adheres to the surface of the article so as to recess and solidify impinged portions thus forming the recessed portions.
