Review on Development of Synthetic and Artificial Latex Surgical Gloves
Rubber surgical gloves are usually used in aseptic operating rooms
which is one of the larger use of latex gloves varieties. Natural rubber latex surgical gloves have excellent comprehensive performance and have a long history of application
however
natural rubber latex contains allergenic proteins
which easily cause some medical staff allergic reaction affecting their health. The development of synthetic latex surgical gloves without proteins and synthetic latex surgical gloves made from synthetic rubber by emulsification process can effectively avoid the allergic reaction caused by protein in natural rubber latex. So far
synthetic latex surgical gloves mainly include nitrile gloves
neoprene gloves and polyisoprene latex surgical gloves
which performances affected by the types of materials. So
the development of nitrile latex gloves
neoprene latex surgical gloves and isoprene latex surgical gloves are reviewed in this paper.
