Abstract

A glove with a coating layer of rubber containing air bubbles formed at least on the surface of a back portion of a glove base material made of fibers is provided, wherein the moisture permeability of the coating layer of the back portion ranges from 1000 to 9000 g/m 2 ·24 hrs in terms of a measured value according to JIS L 1099 A-1 method (calcium chloride method) and the wear loss of the coating layer of the back portion is 40 mg or less in terms of a value measured after 100 revolutions by use of a tester, Nu-Martindale Abrasion and Peeling Tester, specified by EN ISO 12947-1, according to the European Standard EN 388; 2003. The glove of the present invention is excellent in moisture permeability and abrasion resistance of a back portion.

Claims (12)

1. A glove provided with a coating layer of rubber containing air bubbles formed at least on the surface of a back portion of a glove base material made of fibers, wherein the moisture permeability of the coating layer of the back portion ranges from 1000 to 9000 g/m 2 ·24 hrs in terms of a measured value according to JIS L 1099 A-1 method (calcium chloride method) and the wear loss of the coating layer of the back portion is 40 mg or less in terms of a value measured after 100 revolutions by use of a tester, Nu-Martindale Abrasion and Peeling Tester, specified by EN ISO 12947-1, according to the European Standard EN 388; 2003.

2. The glove according to claim 1 , wherein the average air bubble content of the coating layer is 12 to 85%.

3. The glove according to claim 1 , wherein the wear losses of nail portions, first joint portions, the second joint portions and the third joint portions of the coating layer are respectively 7 mg or less in terms of values measured after 100 revolutions by use of a tester, Nu-Martindale Abrasion and Peeling Tester, specified by EN ISO 12947-1, according to the European Standard EN 388; 2003.

4. The glove according to claim 3 , wherein the average air bubble contents of the nail portions, the first joint portions, the second joint portions and the third joint portions of the coating layers are respectively 0 to 10%.

5. The glove according to any one of claims 1 to 4 , wherein a face fastener is provided to a hem portion of a rubber coating layer of the glove.

6. A method for producing a glove, which comprises the steps of;

forming a coating layer having the average air bubble content of 22 to 89% at least on the surface of a back portion of a glove base material made of fibers by use of a rubber blended solution having the average air bubble content of 7 to 88% by volume, and

hot pressing the coating layer in such a way that the average air bubble content of the coating layer is 12 to 85%.

7. The method for producing a glove according to claim 6 , wherein a water content of the coating layer having the average air bubble content of 22 to 89% is adjusted to 20 to 170% by weight and then the coating layer is hot pressed.

8. The method for producing a glove according to claim 6 or 7 , wherein the coating layer is hot pressed by use of a pressing plate having a projection and depression pattern.

9. The method for producing a glove according to claim 6 or 7 , wherein the coating layer is hot pressed by use of a pressing plate not having a projection and depression pattern.

10. The method for producing a glove according to claim 6 or 7 , wherein a face fastener is attached to a hem portion of a rubber coating layer of the glove.
