Impact and vibration absorbing body-contacting medallions, methods of using and methods of making
The present disclosure relates to cushioning medallions, methods of making and methods of using, particularly cushioning medallions comprising a relatively low durometer viscoelastic polymer gel, for use in gloves or on the body.
1. In combination:
a cushioning medallion, comprising:
a polymeric gel material layer;
a barrier layer disposed adjacent to the polymeric material; and
a removable stabilization layer disposed adjacent to the polymeric layer and opposite the barrier layer; and
a glove, comprising:
an interior surface;
wherein upon removal of the removable stabilization layer from the polymeric gel layer of the cushioning medallion and application of the polymeric gel layer to the interior surface of the glove, the polymeric gel layer is operative to removably adhere to the interior surface of the glove.
