Description
A rubber glove box protective glove with latex coating and its manufacturing method. Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of protective glove manufacturing technology, and particularly relates to a rubber glove box protective glove with latex coating and its manufacturing method. Background Technology
[0002] When gloves are used in glove cases, wear and damage to the glove surface are not evenly distributed. Areas such as the palms and fingertips, due to frequent contact with tools, parts, and the inner walls of the glove case, are high-risk areas for mechanical damage (such as abrasion, cutting, and puncture). Once a localized area is damaged, the entire glove's sealing and protective functions completely fail, posing a risk of radioactive material leakage and potentially causing serious radiation exposure and environmental pollution. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a method to locally enhance the mechanical properties of protective gloves for rubber glove cases. Summary of the Invention

Preparation of local latex coating by impregnation: Place the single-layer rubber glove box protective glove on the same type of impregnation mold, immerse it in the coagulant for 20 seconds, remove it and dry it in an 80℃ oven; then immerse it in the compound latex for 50 seconds, remove it and dry it in a 90℃ oven; repeat the steps of immersion in coagulant-drying-immersion in compound latex-drying 5 times, and after completion, dry it in a 90℃ oven for 1 hour; filter the protective glove in a 95℃ water bath for 5 minutes; then place it in a 130℃ oven for vulcanization for 20 minutes to obtain a local latex coating. The total thickness of the protective glove in the local latex coating area is about 1.50 mm.
[0059] Comparative Example 1The preparation of a rubber glove box protective glove with a latex coating includes the following steps: S1. Preparation of rubber sheet: Weigh each raw material according to the component ratio in the molding rubber layer. The molding rubber layer includes the following components: 100 parts butyl rubber (rubber), 240 parts tungsten powder (shielding component), 15 parts carbon black N110 (reinforcing filler), 8 parts zinc oxide (activator), 1 part antioxidant D (antioxidant), 8 parts naphthenic oil (plasticizer), 5 parts stearic acid (plasticizer), 8 parts sericite powder (filler), 2 parts nanofiber powder (filler), 4 parts paraffin wax (lubricating and mold release agent), 0.5 parts sulfur (vulcanizing agent), 1 part thiuram accelerator TBzTD (accelerator), and 1 part thiazole accelerator MBTS. 1.5 parts (accelerator); Rubber is added to an internal mixer and plasticized for 1 min; Plasticizer naphthenic oil and stearic acid, antioxidant D, lubricant and release agent paraffin wax, and activator zinc oxide are added for a first mixing for 2 min; Reinforcing filler carbon black N110, shielding component tungsten powder, filler sericite powder and nanofiber powder are added for a second mixing, and the rubber is discharged when the temperature reaches 130℃; Thin-pass and sheet-forming are performed on an open mill to obtain section A compound rubber, which is then left to cool for 8 h; Section A compound rubber, vulcanizing agent sulfur, accelerator TBzTD and MBTS are added to an internal mixer for a third mixing, and the rubber is discharged when the temperature reaches 105℃; Thin-pass and strip-forming are performed on an open mill to obtain section B compound rubber strip; Section B compound rubber strip is added to a calender and calendered into a sheet of fixed thickness, cooled and then wound up to obtain a rubber sheet with a thickness of about 2 mm.
[0060] S2. Molding preparation of single-layer rubber glove box protective gloves: Rubber sheet is laid flat on the surface of glove molding mold, and high temperature molding and vulcanization is carried out at 160℃ for 15 minutes. After demolding, single-layer rubber glove box protective gloves are obtained with a thickness of 0.83mm.
[0061] Hazard protection performance testing and analysis of protective gloves The radiation and mechanical hazard protection performance of the rubber glove boxes manufactured in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Example 1 was tested, and the test results are shown in Table 1.
[0062] Table 1. Test results of radiation and mechanical hazard protection performance of the protective gloves in the examples and comparative examples.
[0063] It should be noted that the lead equivalent used in this invention 60Co was used as the radiation source, and the radiation shielding performance was tested according to standard GB6Z / T 147-2002. The airtightness of the protective gloves was tested according to standard EJ / T 1096-1999, with the highest airtightness level being Class 1. The hardness of the protective gloves was tested according to standard GB / T 531.1-2008. The tear resistance, puncture resistance, cut resistance, and abrasion resistance of the molded rubber layer substrate and the local latex coating area of the protective gloves were tested according to standard GB 24541-2022. Table 1 shows the tests conducted on the palm area of the single-layer rubber glove box protective gloves with local latex coating in each embodiment, and the comparative examples also show the tests conducted on the palm area of the single-layer rubber glove box protective gloves.
[0064] As shown in Table 1, the present invention optimizes the component ratio of the molded rubber layer, resulting in protective gloves that not only have excellent radiation shielding performance but also significantly improved mechanical properties. Because Comparative Example 1 did not impregnate the surface of the single-layer rubber glove box protective gloves with a latex coating, the mechanical properties of the gloves in Comparative Example 1 were significantly lower than those in Examples 1-3.
[0065] Furthermore, by comparing the radiation shielding performance and mechanical properties of the coating area and the molded rubber layer in each embodiment in Table 1, it can be found that the present invention prepares a local latex coating in the local area of the rubber glove where additional mechanical hazard protection is required through a latex impregnation process. Moreover, the local latex coating is tightly bonded to the rubber substrate, which significantly enhances the mechanical hazard protection performance of the local area of the protective glove and effectively improves the service life of the rubber glove box protective glove in the dual hazard scenarios of radiation and mechanical damage.
[0066] All raw materials used in this invention are commercially available and can be purchased from retail sources. The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
