What is the difference between nitrile gloves and latex gloves?

2023-11-14

The difference between nitrile gloves and latex gloves: firstly, the materials are different. The latex gloves are made of natural rubber, while the nitrile gloves are a type of manually made rubber gloves; 2、 The characteristics are different, and the wear resistance, fit and puncture resistance of Ding Qing gloves and latex gloves are different; 3、 The colors are different. Due to the unique nature of the material, Ding Qing gloves can be made with pigments and come in various colors, while latex gloves are mostly milky white.


Protective Nitrile Gloves for Medical and Surgical Applications



1. Different materials

The latex gloves are made of natural latex materials, extracted from the juice of rubber trees and belong to the category of biosynthetic products. The quality of rubber gloves produced varies depending on the origin of the tree, including climate. However, nitrile gloves are made from two chemical materials: acrylonitrile and butadiene, which are organic synthetic materials and artificial rubber. Therefore, the raw materials used are different, One is natural materials, and the other is synthetic materials.



2. Different characteristics

The characteristics of Ding Qing gloves and latex gloves are also different. Firstly, the wear resistance of Ding Qing gloves is because they are made of chemicals and have control over the accuracy of the gloves. Therefore, Ding Qing gloves have better wear resistance and puncture fit than latex gloves, and are widely used in medical supplies. Most doctors wear Ding Qing gloves, which have good puncture resistance when using sharp tools, More secure.



3. Different colors

Ding Qing gloves belong to chemical synthesis, so pigments can be added to the raw materials. The gloves produced can also present various colors, commonly blue and light blue, commonly used in medicine. Wearing these gloves by doctors can effectively alleviate patient tension, while latex gloves are mostly milky white in color.
