Abstract

The coating thickness of polymer coated NR gloves was estimated by using a stylus surface profile machine. During the measurement the gloves were stretched to a suitable length and the polymer layer which was harder than NR cracked exposing the NR to the surface. When the stylus was driven across the surface the sharp-pointed end of the stylus dropped into and came out from the cracks generating a series of peaks that corresponded to the coating thickness of the polymer layer. The coating thickness of the polymer-coated gloves in cuff palm and finger regions was measured and compared. The significance of the results is discussed in relation to the way these gloves were made.
