PVC gloves, i.e. polyvinyl chloride gloves, are made of polyvinyl chloride paste resin through a special process. From the appearance, it is light, thin, transparent, can clearly see the outline of the finger, the glove surface usually has a linen or glossy two kinds of treatment, linen can increase the friction, more stable in the grasp of the goods, the glossy is relatively smooth, suitable for some of the requirements of a more delicate sense of touch operation.
Second, the production process revealed
PVC gloves production process is more complex. First of all, the PVC paste resin, plasticizers, stabilizers and other raw materials are mixed and stirred in a certain proportion to form a uniform paste. Then, the mold is preheated and dipped into the paste, according to the thickness of the gloves required to control the dipping time. After the glue dipping is completed, a series of processes such as plasticizing, cooling and demoulding are carried out to make the finished gloves. In this process, each link of the parameter control is crucial, such as temperature, time, raw material ratio, etc., a slight deviation may affect the quality of the gloves.
Wide range of applications
Medical field: In hospitals, PVC gloves are essential for the daily operation of medical personnel. Like ordinary outpatient examination, wound treatment and other scenes, doctors wearing PVC gloves can effectively prevent cross-infection and protect themselves and their patients. And the price of PVC gloves is relatively low, for the large amount of medical industry, can ensure the protective effect at the same time to control the cost.
Food Processing Industry: Hygiene is the key to food processing, PVC gloves can prevent food from being contaminated by bacteria and stains on the operator’s hands to ensure food safety. For example, bread baking, cake making, etc., workers wear PVC gloves for raw material processing, product packaging, both hygienic and convenient operation.
Family daily use: PVC gloves are also useful in family cleaning, dishwashing, hair coloring and other scenarios. When cleaning kitchen oil, cleaning the bathroom, wearing gloves can avoid the harm of cleaning agent on the skin; when dyeing hair, it can prevent the hair dye from staining the fingers, and easily solve the problem of cleaning after dyeing hair.
Advantages
Affordable price: Compared with nitrile gloves and latex gloves, PVC gloves have lower production cost, which makes it more competitively priced in the market, and extremely cost-effective for large-scale use of gloves in the industry and ordinary families.
Good chemical stability: it can withstand a certain degree of acid and alkali and other chemicals, in some chemical experiments to assist the operation, industrial chemical reagent handling and other scenarios, it can provide users with basic protection to prevent the hands from direct contact with chemical substances and get hurt.
Comfortable to wear: the texture is thin and soft, fits the curve of the hand, does not hinder the normal activities of the hand, and there is no obvious discomfort when wearing it for a long time, so it can meet the needs of long-time operation.
V. Limitation Analysis
Relatively low strength: Compared with nitrile gloves, PVC gloves have slightly lower tensile strength and wear resistance. In some work that requires frequent friction and vigorous pulling, they are easy to break and have a shorter service life.
Limited protection performance: poor protection against certain organic solvents and high concentration of chemicals, not a substitute for professional protective gloves for high-risk chemical work environments.
With its unique performance and wide range of applications, PVC gloves play an important role in our life and work. Understanding its characteristics, applications, advantages and disadvantages can help us choose and use gloves more reasonably in different scenarios, so that it can serve us better .
