Chemical Resistant » PVC Gloves
Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) is a thermoplastic polymer of urethane. Polyurethane provides good abrasion resistance and tensile strength. Also, it offers good resistance to oils, some organic solvents, oxidation and ozone. It has poor resistance to hot water and is not recommended for use above 79°C (175°F). Polyurethane has a very low particulate shed, thus making it a good choice for cleanroom gloves. It is also used in some specialty application styles and as a waterproof liner for gloves.
