Abstract: A composition for forming an elastomeric article is disclosed. The composition includes an elastomeric material and a film leveler, where the film leveler is present in an amount of from about 0.05% to about 5.0% by mass of the composition.

Abstract: An elastomeric article includes a substrate body formed from an elastomeric material. The substrate body has a first surface, and a donning layer overlying at least a portion of the first surface. The donning layer is formed from a modified vinyl acetate polymer.

Abstract: An elastomeric article includes a substrate body formed from an elastomeric material, and a plurality of functionalized beads covalently bonded to the elastomeric material.

Abstract: A cup-shaped face mask sized to fit over the nose and mouth of a wearer is disclosed. The face mask includes an inside surface, an outside surface, and a tab disposed on and extending outwardly from the outside surface, where the tab is adapted for gripping.

Abstract: A textured elastomeric article and a method of making such an article is disclosed. The article includes a substrate body having an inside surface and a plurality of alkaline earth salt particles embedded within at least a portion of the inside surface but not extending through the thickness of the article such that no separate binder material is needed to affix the particles.

Abstract: A flexible thermal therapy sleeve is disclosed. The sleeve includes a first layer including a first phase change material having a transition temperature of from about ?10° C. to about 40° C., and a second layer including a second phase change material having a transition temperature of from about 35° C. to about 65° C. The first layer is joined to the second layer to form at least a partial enclosure having an opening through which a thermoactive material may be inserted and removed.

Abstract: A stack of face masks is disclosed. The stack is formed from a plurality of shaped face masks having an inside surface and an outside surface. The inside surface includes a periphery with an adhesive material disposed on at least a portion thereof. The masks are positioned in a nestled relation to one another, the inside surface of the mask being apposed to the outside surface of an adjacent mask, thereby forming a stack. The masks are adapted to maintain a distance between apposed masks so that the periphery of a mask does not contact the outside surface of an apposed mask.

Abstract: A shoe or foot covering with slip-resistant properties is disclosed. The shoe cover includes a slip-resistant material that is applied to the bottom portion of the shoe cover. The slip-resistant material may be a substantially amorphous atactic olefin polymer.

Abstract: A substrate includes a flexible substantially planar sheet of at least one layer. The layer has a front side and a back side with a donning agent associated with at least one side of the sheet. The donning agent is transferable from the sheet to an object or individual apart from the sheet.

Abstract: Opposed cantilevered adapters are provided for supporting a roll of material. The adapters have a roll bearing surface, a projection surface with a first end and a second end such that the first end is coterminous and substantially perpendicular to the roll bearing surface at each point along an interface formed therebetween, and an actuating surface angularly coterminous with the second end of the projection surface.
