“…The hydrophobic properties of polymers for use in protective gloves are particularly important from the point of view of their safe use [34][35][36]. The hydrophobic nature of the surface reduces the risk of chemical contamination accumulating on the surface of the glove, which may not only affect the risk of harmful substances in the palm of the hand, but may also reduce the dexterity of movements performed in these gloves [37][38][39]. That is why it is extremely important to evaluate thoroughly the materials destined to be used for PPE in terms of their possible ways of interaction of their surfaces with substances that can be in contact with them [40][41][42].…”

The article presents validation argumentation of the novel method of evaluating resistance to surface wetting with different liquids of protective materials intended for polymer protective gloves based on the three parameters: water permeability index, non-wettability index and absorption index. Using our own method of evaluating resistance to surface wetting, it was shown that the knurled structure of the palm part of polymer protective gloves may inhibit transport of harmful and hazardous liquids outside the area of the protective glove. Currently, there is lack of objectifying methods for evaluation of surface wettability focused on the mentioned aspects. In view of the above facts, an original method for evaluating the resistance of protective materials to surface wetting with mineral oils and water has been invented and validated. It was assumed that the non-wettability index will be subjected to metrological analysis. Consequently, the validation process refers to this index. A precise assessment of the uncertainty budget of the individual components was obtained. On the basis of the obtained results, the measurement errors that may affect the quality and reliability of the test result performed in the laboratory were identified.

“…Swelling tests are the most popular method that allows providing direct information of the chemical resistance of a polymer toward a liquid. It was reported that nitrile rubber swells less than other elastomers when they are in contact with engine oils than gloves made of neoprene, natural, or vinyl rubbers . It was found that when protective gloves are immersed in the MWF, two competing phenomena could occur: (1) extraction of soluble components from the polymer matrix and (2) the diffusion of the MWF into it .…”

In some working places, such as metal manufacturing or automotive services, mechanical hazards commonly occur along with chemical hazards, particularly metalworking fluids (MWFs). The presence of these chemicals could modify the properties of gloves made from polymeric materials and thus reduce their protective properties against chemical contamination (solvent, MWFs) and mechanical risks (puncture and cutting). This work focused on determining the swelling characteristics and the resistance of six polymeric membranes which were exposed to seven industrial MWFs. We found that the swelling tests can be used to classify the potential of coating polymers in descending order of their resistance to MWFs: nitrile, polyurethane > poly(vinyl chloride), neoprene > butyl, latex. The analysis by multiple linear regression showed, for the first time, that the density or the viscosity‐gravity constant of the fluid and Hansen's solubility parameters of the polymers have a significant impact on the swelling of polymer. For the first time, two new multiple regression models have been proposed, to predict the swelling phenomena of polymers under various MWFs with an accuracy of ≈80%. The effect of temperature on mechanical properties and morphology of material was also examined. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2018, 135, 45717.
