Wenzel-cassie glove
11559367 · 2023-01-24 · ·

A glove with an enhanced gripping textured surface is disclosed herein. In preferred embodiments, the glove contains a palm region adapted to cover the palm of a person's hand, a thumb region extending outwardly from the palm region, an index finger region disposed adjacent the thumb region, a middle finger region adjacent the index finger region, a ring finger region adjacent the middle finger region, and a little finger region adjacent the ring finger region with each region containing a textured surface. In preferred embodiments, the textured surface is formed by a plurality of dimensionally hierarchical structures superimposed in layers. The textured surface of the invention, when in contact with wet tissue, repels water at a first texture layer and traps tissue at a second texture layer, such that when in tissue contact, especially exudative tissue, tissue fixatively localizes to the glove surface.

Safety Glove System
20230218025 · 2023-07-13 ·

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.

Method for producing a prophylactic article

The invention relates to a method for the manufacture of a prophylactic article, especially of a glove, from a (carboxylated) diene rubber, according to which a layer of a (carboxylated) diene latex is applied on a former and the (carboxylated) diene latex is cross-linked with a cross-linking agent, which is immobilized on inorganic and/or organic particles with formation of modified particles, and the modified particles are added to the (carboxylated) diene latex.

Methods and compositions for studying cell evolution

The subject matter disclosed herein is generally directed to methods and compositions for tagging cells of interest, tracking evolution of the tagged cells, and recovering the original tagged cells for further study. Specifically, cells are tagged with a DNA construct encoding a barcode sequence comprising a guide sequence. Barcoded cells can then be recovered using a reporter construct having CRISPR target sequences specific for the cell having a barcode of interest.

RUBBER LATEX COMPOUND, METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING GLOVE, AND GLOVE
20220396688 · 2022-12-15 ·

An object of the prevent invention is to provide a rubber latex compound that enables manufacturing a glove which is superior in terms of touch panel responsiveness, and has superior flexibility. The rubber latex compound according to one aspect of the present invention is a rubber latex compound for a glove containing a rubber latex as a principal component, wherein carbon black, an anionic surfactant, a nonionic dispersant, and a water-soluble polymer are contained in the rubber latex compound; a DBP oil absorption of the carbon black is no less than 250 ml/100 g and no greater than 600 ml/100 g, and a volatile content of the carbon black is no less than 0.3% by mass and less than 1.0% by mass; an amount of addition of the water-soluble polymer with respect to 100 parts by mass of the carbon black is no less than 8 parts by mass and no greater than 50 parts by mass; and a total amount of addition of the nonionic dispersant and the water-soluble polymer with respect to 100 parts by mass of the carbon black is no less than 38 parts by mass and no greater than 200 parts by mass.

GLOVE COMPRISING ACTIVATED ELASTOMERIC FILM

A glove comprising a glove body suitable to surround a user's hand and fingers, wherein the glove provides a snug, comfortable fit is provided. The gloves of the present disclosure advantageously provide minimized friction upon donning the glove by a user. Methods of making the glove as well as methods of using the glove are also provided.

20220386719 · 2022-12-08 ·

A disposable glove has a thickness of 0.03-0.12 mm, tensile strength of at least 14 Mpa, and elongation of at least 350%. The disposable glove is made by dip-coagulating a glove former with a water-based latex compound consisting of or comprising a base latex which is a vinyl acetate ethylene latex or a blend of vinyl acetate ethylene latex and carboxylated acrylonitrile butadiene latex, a pH adjuster, an external crosslinker, and a process additive.

METHOD FOR PREPARING LATEX COMPOSITION FOR DIP-FORMING
20220380580 · 2022-12-01 ·

An exemplary embodiment provides a method for preparing a latex composition for dip forming, the method including: (a) preparing a monomer mixture including a conjugated diene-based monomer, an ethylenically unsaturated nitrile monomer and an ethylenically unsaturated acid monomer; (b) introducing an additive including an inorganic solvent, an emulsifier and starch into the monomer mixture; and (c) preparing a copolymer latex by polymerizing the monomer mixture, wherein a content of the starch is 0.1 to 4.9 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the monomer mixture.

DISPOSABLE GLOVES AND METHODS OF USING AND MAKING
20230049299 · 2023-02-16 ·

A disposable glove and a method for making the disposable glove that reduces or eliminates glove cuff roll-down. The disposable glove includes a treated area on the interior surface of the glove that extends from the hand area to a portion of the wrist-forearm area of the glove but such that at least a portion of the interior near the glove opening is untreated. The untreated portion of the interior surface of the disposable glove resists glove cuff roll-down when the glove is positioned on a user's hand and forearm.
