Nitrile gloves are made from acrylonitrile-butadiene, a synthetic polymer. It is made from synthetic rubber which is non-latex and protein free, hence suitable for users who are sensitive to natural rubber proteins. Soft formulation or low modulus nitrile gloves provides excellent feel, fit, comfort and flexibility to users and reduces hand fatigue. It has good resistance to oil, grease and wide range of toxic chemicals and solvents. Nitrile gloves posses high abrasion and puncture resistance properties. Its elasticity is good but less superior as compared to natural rubber. It is generally more costly than natural rubber gloves.
