Abstract:

Natural rubber (NR) gloves manufactured from NR latex are widely utilized in various applications as a personal protective device due to their exceptional barrier characteristics in infection control. However, the use of NR gloves was associated with concerns about an NR protein allergy. With comprehensive leaching procedures now a common practice in NR latex glove factories to eliminate latent rubber proteins and chemical allergens, occurrences and complaints of protein allergy from medical glove users have decreased drastically over the past two decades. The present work aims to eliminate fu

Abstract:

Malaysia is the largest producer and exporter of examination and surgical gloves in the world and currently faced with mitigating large amounts of waste generated during the glove production process. This waste is mainly generated from glove dipping tanks and is referred as dipping tank coagulum (DTC). It is considered as scheduled waste which requires mandatory disposal by incineration, in compliance to the Scheduled Waste Regulations set by the Department of Environment. Work described in this study showed, DTC samples with a polymer content of >40%, both ash and calcium carbonate content

Abstract:

Glove tear or perforation is a common occurrence during various activities that require gloves to be worn, posing a significant risk to the wearer and possibly others. This is vitally important in a clinical environment and particularly during surgical procedures. When a glove perforation occurs (and is noticed), the glove must be replaced as soon as possible; however, it is not always noticeable. The present article is focused on the design and development of a novel fluorescence-based sensing mechanism, which is integrated within the glove topology, to help alert the wearer of a perforation

Abstract:

The demand for rubber gloves has significantly increased in both medical and non-medical fields due to the spread of the coronavirus in 2019. It is challenging for rubber glove manufacturing industries to balance the production and demand for the product. Additionally, they must determine techniques to decrease the production costs so as to make rubber gloves more economical for consumers. Generally, natural gas, fossil fuels, and renewable energy sources are used worldwide in the manufacturing of rubber gloves. In addition, Thailand uses biomass energy for rubber glove production, but biomass

Waste rubber is an environmental concern. The large global market of concrete products could usefully consume this waste, even if the fractions used were very low, provided such concrete mix had sufficient strength and other characteristics. Therefore, the properties of concrete mixes that include natural rubber were studied at 28 days of age, which is a standard time to characterize hardened concrete properties. We included two types of natural rubber in this study, namely natural rubber latex (NRL) and discarded rubber glove. First, 60% concentrate latex (HA: high ammonia) was used in latex

Hevea brasiliensis natural rubber (NR) latex is a very important commercial source of elastomers. It is not only a source for dry NR rubber but also the feedstock for the latex glove dipping industry. The particles of freshly tapped latex are known to be stabilized by proteins and lipids that come with the latex from the tree. These non-rubbers [, especially proteins and lipids, confer to the rubber and latex excellent properties unsurpassed by any synthetic latex [. Recent structural studies of NR revealed that the NR molecules comprise of 2 trans-isoprene units connected to a long-chain cis-

Abstract Polypeptides of natural rubber latex (NRL) that elute from surgeon's gloves and other manufactured rubber products can sensitize exposed individuals and elicit severe hypersensitivity reactions. Previously, we showed that prohevein is a major allergen in NRL, the source material for rubber manufacturing. To analyze which region of the molecule carries the main IgE-binding epitope(s), we purified prohevein and its C-domain from NRL by gel filtration, reverse phase chromatography, and electroelution. In immunoblotting, prohevein bound IgE from 15 of 20 (75%), and the prohevein C-domain

Nitrile gloves are widely used in the medical and automobile field due to its superiority in hypo-allergic component and chemical resistance over natural latex gloves. However, poor elastic recovery of nitrile glove to compressive force also creates an aesthetic issue for customers with high levels of wrinkling after removing from glove box. This paper demonstrates the preliminary study on the varies chemical composition such as crosslinking agents, sulphur and zinc oxide, the accelerator agent added during curing process, and the rubber filler Titanium Dioxide, on the elastic recovery and str

Therefore, in this study, the properties of recycled acrylonitrile butadiene rubber glove (NBRgr) blending with styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) has been determined. The effects of SBR/NBRr blends on properties of such fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and morphology properties were carried out.

Abstract The radiation and peroxide vulcanizations of natural rubber latex are sharing the same problem which is low mechanical properties on their latex. This makes it unsuitable to be use in the production of premium latex products such as surgical glove. Moreover, there are some cases where the use of sensitizers in radiation vulcanization and activators in peroxide vulcanization tends to produced latex film with unpleasant smell and darken color respectively during the drying process. For this study, radiation of latex formulations based on 0.1 pphr of tert-butyl hydroperoxide and 0.06 pph

Abstract:

In 1987, when the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended the use of universal precautions in response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic, the demand for medical gloves dramatically increased. Unfortunately, the manufacturing techniques for the most widely-used gloves—natural rubber latex—also changed, in order to expedite production. These changes resulted in an increase in latex allergies, because excessive residual proteins that cause allergies remained on the gloves and became airborne with the gloves’ high level of powder. This allergy concern is especially relevant in the schoo
