A glove dipping solution and a method for preparing bio-based gloves are provided. The gloves maintain desirable mechanical properties while incorporating a high proportion of bio-based plasticizers. The glove dipping solution comprises
polyvinyl chloride, one or more selected bio-based plasticizers chosen from bio-
succinic acid, bio-
sebacic acid, laurate esters,
glycerol tristearate,
diethylene glycol laurate, dodecyl laurate, dibutyl laurate,
propylene glycol diacetate,
sorbitol diacetate, succinic diacetate, diethylhexyl succinate,
epoxidized soybean oil, 1,2-
epoxy-3-propyl-1,2,3-triestearoyl
glycerol, and 1,3-
epoxy-2-propyl-1,2,3-triestearoyl
glycerol. The bio-based
plasticizer content ranges from 25 weight percent to 41 weight percent of the total weight of the glove dipping solution, excluding
volatile solvents. The solution includes one or more functional auxiliary materials such as plasticizers, stabilizers, thickeners, and opacifiers. The invention also provides bio-based gloves produced from this dipping solution, which exhibit tensile breaking strengths exceeding 7 MPa, elongation at break rates over 300%, and palm thicknesses
ranging from 0.03 millimeters to 0.2 millimeters.
