A. CHOOSING GLOVES
Primary Concern
The primary concern for gloves used to protect the skin from chemical contact is that they
provide adequate worker safety. (This appendix only addresses chemical protective
gloves and does not address protection from cuts, burns, electricity, etc.)
After ensuring that a glove provides adequate chemical protection, the gloves should be
tested while performing the laboratory procedure, to ensure the glove provides enough
dexterity that the work can be done. If a glove is too slippery to allow gripping the work,
a different type glove can be worn over the chemical protective glove to improve
dexterity.
Sometimes, workers do not want to wear effective gloves because they are not
comfortable. A big factor frequently in worker comfort is that the right size glove is
available. In other cases, worker comfort can be improved is some cases by wearing
cotton inserts within the chemical protective glove or by purchasing gloves designed to
be more comfortable.
Glove Weaknesses
Either degradation or permeation may affect gloving material.

Deg r ada tion
This is when glove material breaks down due to chemical contact. Exposed
gloves may get harder, softer, expand, contract, stiffen, weaken or become
brittle.

Permeation
This means leaking through the glove material even if the glove material is not
susceptible to chemical attack. Permeation can occur even if there is no visible
damage to the gloves being worn. Thicker gloves usually resist permeation better
than thin gloves.
The information in Table 3, Glove Guide for Specific Chemicals, is based primarily on
permeation information for thick (20 mil) gloves.
B. GLOVE MATERIALS
Different gloving materials offer different kinds of protection. The following will help you
understand the various glove-related terms used.
Natural Rubber
 A naturally produced rubber (commonly called latex) that is highly elastic and
flexible. This type material resists bases, acids, alcohols and diluted water
solutions of most types of chemicals, especially when it is thick (18 mils or more).
Latex (natural rubber) exam gloves and thin latex gloves do not provide
chemical protection.

The primary concern from latex gloves is that the proteins in latex can produce
allergic reactions in some people (as described later in Appendix G in Section C).
Latex gloves are not alike. Powder-free gloves transfer less protein to the skin and
respiratory tract. Hypoallergenic gloves have lower protein levels because of
additional washing after manufacture. Because of these differences, there is over a
500-fold difference in protein levels between different style gloves from different
Glove Selection

manufacturers.
Neoprene

A synthetic rubber developed as an oil-resistant substitute for natural rubber.
Neoprene has excellent resistance to all straight-chain hydrocarbons, all
aliphatic hydroxy compounds such as methyl and ethyl alcohols and ethylene
glycol, animal and vegetable fats and oils, and fluorinated hydrocarbons such as
Freon refrigerants.

Nitrile is a synthetic rubber with chemical protection as well as superior puncture,
cut, snag, and abrasion resistance. Nitrile is often available in thin and heavy gauges
and offers excellent protection against alkaline solutions, saturated salt solutions and
aliphatic hydrocarbons, both saturated and unsaturated. It is little affected by fatty
acids found in vegetable fats and oils or by aliphatic alcohols, glycols, glycerols.
Nitrile is not recommended for use in the presence of strong oxidizing agents,
ketones, acetates, and a few other chemicals.

Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or vinyl is a plastic material that resists amines,
aromatics, inorganic acids, bases, and salts but not aldehydes, ketones, halogen
compounds, and petroleum products.

A specialty fluoroelastomer which is the most chemical resistant of all rubbers.
It protects against oils, fuels, and lubricants, most mineral acids, hydraulic
fluids and aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons.

Polyvinyl Alcohol, PVA is a plastic material that protects against aromatics,
ketones and chlorinated solvents. PVA coating is water soluble. Do not use in
water or water based solution.

Butyl rubber provides superior resistance to highly corrosive acids and is
excellent against ketones and esters. It should not be worn with halogenated
compounds.

Plastic Film
 Special, multiple laminated layers of different type plastics make these gloves
resistant and impervious to the vast majority of common chemicals. Examples
are 4H and SilverShield gloves. These gloves have very poor dexterity and most
workers wear latex gloves over the plastic film gloves to improve the dexterity.
C. LATEX ALLERGIC REACTIONS
Since 1988, allergies to natural rubber latex have become a serious concern to workers in
frequent contact with latex derived products. For laboratory and health care personnel this
chronic exposure comes from the frequent use of disposable latex gloves.
Glove related chemical sensitizers are found in both latex and synthetic gloves as residue
from the glove manufacturing process. Powder, used to make the gloves easier to put on,
absorbs these chemicals and unbound latex proteins. The powder works as an abrasive,
Glove Selection
Page 3 of 20
accelerating the individual's sensitivity to the chemicals/proteins it has absorbed.
Environmental Health and Safety (EH&S) Department recommends purchasing
powder-free latex or synthetic gloves.
Three types of reactions are associated with latex gloves: irritation, delayed
hypersensitivity reaction, and immediate hypersensitivity reaction.
Irritation
All individuals are susceptible to irritation caused by direct cell injury. The abrasive
nature of powder particles may initiate or aggravate irritating symptoms.
a.
Symptoms
The first symptoms are redness with associated burning or itching. It appears
where the glove is tighter on knuckles, the back of the hands or on the wrists.
b.
Prevention
Wear larger gloves to reduce pressure areas and increase air circulation. Use
powder free gloves. After removing gloves, wash your hands with mild soap and
water and keep your hands conditioned with hand lotions and creams. Waterbased lotions are more compatible with latex than oil-based lotions.
c.
Reactions
People who are genetically predisposed to develop sensitivity to the powders,
chemicals, and/or proteins found in the latex gloves can have either a delayed or
immediate hypersensitivity reaction.
Delayed Hypersensitivity Reaction
a.
Symptoms
The skin in the gloved area becomes red and painful with small blisters appearing.
This reaction often spreads beyond the border of the glove. The skin reaction will
recur and will be more severe with every exposure to latex.
b.
Prevention
An option is to use a powder free synthetic rubber with less allergic potential
such as vinyl, nitrile, or neoprene gloves. You should also see your health care
provider for evaluation. A prescription strength steroid cream is often required to
calm the allergic reaction.
It is important to know that people with this delayed skin sensitivity reaction do not
go on to develop the Immediate Hypersensitivity Reaction.
Immediate Hypersensitivity Reaction
a. Symp to ms
A very small exposure to latex can trigger an extreme reaction in some
sensitized individuals. These people may have the reactions simply by being
in a room with someone using powdered latex gloves. The symptoms include
hives, itching all over, nasal congestion, swelling of lips, eyelids, and face,
shortness of breath, rapid heartbeat, abnormally low blood pressure, and shock.
Glove Selection
Page 4 of 20
b. Prevention
People with this reaction must avoid all products containing latex (balloons,
condoms, dental dams, etc.). Wear a medic alert bracelet, showing an allergy to
latex. Remember that the emergency responders will be wearing latex gloves.
c. F i r s t A i d
First Aid for individuals with immediate hypersensitivity reaction to latex - Carry
an Epi Pen or Anakit for self-injection with epinephrine at the first sign of
symptoms. Seek medical treatment immediately. These reactions can be
medical emergencies.
D. GLOVE SIZES
Determine your proper size by using a tape measure to find the circumference of your hand
around the palm. This measurement in inches is closest to your actual glove size. For
example 7 inches is equal to a size 7 glove. Sizes may vary among styles and
manufacturers. Most often gloves are sized according to men’s hands.

F. GLOVE SELECTION FOR SPECIFIC CHEMICALS CHART
The following chart is to be used only as a general guide to the type of glove to be worn
as protection against accidental splashes and spills. Each glove manufacturer uses their
own formulations to produce gloves. No two-glove manufacturers produce gloves exactly
alike. Manufacturers will often make several types of glove from the same material, e.g.,
nitrile. Each of these gloves has specific uses specified by the manufacturer.
If your gloved hands will be immersed in a chemical or they will be in contact with a
chemical for more than a few minutes, then contact a manufacturer. Manufacturers can
send you glove guides/charts or provide recommendations. You can also contact
EH&S, 206-543-7388, for recommendations on the best glove to use.
Latex exam gloves are not intended for use with chemicals.
The following chart was compiled using the glove guides provided by the manufacturers listed
in the footnotes.
