What are Nitrile Gloves?

Nitrile gloves are made of a rubber, synthetic polymer that is derived from acrylonitrile (ACN) and butadiene. They are widely used through the medical community as an alternative to latex gloves.

 

How Long Have Nitrile Gloves Been on the Market?

The actual nitrile glove was invented in the 1980s, and first patented in 1991. However, the actual rubber, Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (NBR) was first patented nearly over 40 years earlier in 1934.

 

What are Nitrile Gloves Used For?

While nitrile gloves are known to be particularly useful in the medical industry, various industries have quickly become acclimated to the use of these gloves outside of the medical realm. They are often used as a form of PPE giving hands protection against a range of substances in chemical labs including many corrosive acids, bases, and organic solvents. These gloves are also appropriate for food handling and processing.
