Chemical Resistant Materials :-
Natural Rubber:- Also generally known as latex, has a high resistance to many and most types of chemicals and provides a high cut resistance.
Synthetic Rubber:- Also known as nitrile or neoprene rubber. Nitrile offers a good protection against bases, oils, many solvents, grease and animal fats and has an excellent resistance to snags, punctures, abrasions and cuts. Neoprene is also resistant to the same list as follows, but less resistant to snags, puntures and abrasions.
Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA):- Has a very high resistance to aliphatics, chlorinated solvents, esters and most ketones. It is also resistant to snags, cuts, punctures and abrasions, but quickly breaks down when exposed to waster and ligther alcohols.
Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC):- Provides good protection against many chemicals and provides good abrasion and cut resistance, but some style are susceptible to cuts.
