PVC (Poly Vinyl Chloride) Chemical Resistant Gloves
PVC provides resistance to most fats, oils, acids, caustics and petroleum hydrocarbons, but PVC gloves are mostly sold as general purpose gloves, intended for numerous applications involving incidental exposure to a variety of low level chemical hazards. They are mostly supported gloves (dipped on a liner) which means that the PVC layer is of variable thickness, which it turn means that the glove’s chemical resistance varies from one part of the glove to another. PVC is a very versatile and inexpensive polymer and supported PVC gloves are available in a wide range of styles, finishes and colors. They have applications in many industries, including petrochemical, construction, fishing industry, cold storage etc.
