| 20100263106 | FOAMED POLYMER - A method for manufacturing a foamed polymer is disclosed, the method comprising, providing a precursor dispersion comprising a precursor of a gellable polymer, particles of a water-swellable polymer and water, and gelling the gellable polymer to form a solid polymer. The method may be used to manufacture a garment, especially a glove. Also disclosed are gloves comprising a liner and at least one foamed polymer layer coated on the liner the foamed polymer layer comprising micropores formed by water swelling and contraction of particles of a water swellable polymer and mesopores formed by gas incorporated in the foamed polymer. | 10-21-2010 |
| 20100104762 | METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A FLEXIBLE AND BREATHABLE MATT FINISH GLOVE - A method to prepare a flexible and breathable protective glove having good grip in both aqueous and oil environments includes coating an electrolyte treated knitted glove liner substrate with a dispersion of a polymeric material. The resulting semi-gelled polymeric coating which partially penetrates the depth of the knitted glove liner substrate, is treated with a foamed solution of a surfactant, tenside or aerosol solution and the foam treated coating is overcoated with an electrolyte solution. In a resulting chemical or physical reaction, fine pores and cavities are formed in and on the polymer coating. | 04-29-2010 |
| 20100104750 | METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A FLEXIBLE AND BREATHABLE MATT FINISH GLOVE - A method to prepare a flexible and breathable protective glove having excellent grip in both aqueous and oil environments includes coating an electrolyte treated glove liner substrate with a non-foamed dispersion of a polymeric material. The resulting semi-gelled polymeric coating which partially penetrates the depth of the glove liner substrate, is treated with a foamed solution of a surfactant, tenside or aerosol solution and the foam treated coating is overcoated with an electrolyte solution. In a resulting chemical or physical reaction, fine pores and cavities are formed in and on the polymer coating. | 04-29-2010 |
