Polyethylene is a polymer and one of the most common plastics used today. Manufacturers use it to make plastic bags, bottles, films and a number of other products, including clear plastic gloves. These gloves offer a good value for a low price, so they are often the best types of disposable gloves.
This type of PE is loose-fitting for quick and easy glove changes and help to maintain a hygienic environment in low-risk situations like food service and preparation. They function to keep germs away from people and food but do not offer a layer of protection from substances like food-grade oil.
Neoprene, sometimes called neoprene rubber, was the first synthetic rubber. It is a polymer used to make wetsuits, hoses, gaskets, weather stripping and many other products. These gloves are tough, versatile and often impervious to liquid, so they are an excellent choice for situations where skin and hands must be in prolonged contact with substances like alcohol, peroxide, fuel, hydraulic fluid, acids, bases, hydrocarbons and organic acids.
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is an inexpensive material frequently used in scientific or medical situations that do not involve exposure to dangerous chemicals or pathogens, though PVC gloves can resist alcohols, salts and water solutions. Many low-priced, disposable vinyl gloves are constructed from PVC.
Thermoplastic elastomer is a polymer that can be shaped when heated, and it has about the same flexibility and feel as natural rubber. These polymers are considered specialty resins and are manufactured at lower quantities and higher price points. TPE gloves are used in many of the same ways as vinyl, PVC and polyethylene gloves — food service and preperation, light cleaning and other low-risk tasks.
The advantage of TPE gloves is they are better for the environment, as the polymers can be recycled and reshaped. Overall, they are resilient and can replace single-use gloves in a number of circumstances for companies concerned with sustainability.
