Abstract: In a process to clean a polyurethane glove, which has been cured on a glove form, so as to remove non-volatile residues and low-volatility residues from the glove before the glove is removed from the form, the form bearing the glove is immersed in a quiescent or agitated bath consisting essentially of a solvent selected from isopropyl alcohol, hexane, and blends of isopropyl and hexane, preferably isopropyl alcohol, at an elevated temperature of approximately 60° C., for a predetermined time not less than approximately five minutes, preferably for a predetermined time of approximately ten to twenty minutes, whereupon the form bearing the glove is withdrawn from the bath and the glove is allowed to be air-dried on the form.

Abstract: A polymeric glove is made by a process wherein a glove form is dipped into a first bath containing a solvent and a first polymer, which when solidified has a first property, and the first polymer is solidified, wherein the glove form, on which the first polymer has solidified, is dipped into a second bath containing a solvent and a second polymer, which when solidified has a second property differing from the first property, and the second polymer is solidified, and wherein what results is stripped from the glove form, so as to invert what results. The polymeric glove has an outer layer having the first property, an inner layer having the second property, and an intermediate, transitional layer. The first property may be a comparatively higher coefficient of friction of an outer surface, which is defined by the outer layer, or may be a comparatively lower stiffness or a comparatively greater elasticity.
