vinyylikäsineet

Vinyylikäsineet are disposable gloves made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC). They are a synthetic alternative to latex and nitrile gloves, offering a balance of flexibility and durability. Vinyylikäsineet are often chosen for their cost-effectiveness and for individuals with latex allergies, as they are hypoallergenic.

These gloves are commonly used in various settings, including healthcare, food service, and industrial applications. Their smooth surface makes them easy to put on and take off, and they provide a barrier against contaminants. Vinyylikäsineet are generally resistant to oils, greases, and many chemicals, though their chemical resistance is typically lower than that of nitrile gloves.

The manufacturing process of vinyylikäsineet involves the polymerization of vinyl chloride monomer. The resulting PVC material is then formed into glove shapes through a dipping process. While offering good tactile sensitivity for many tasks, they may not be as dexterous or resistant to punctures as other glove materials.

Vinyylikäsineet are available in a range of sizes and often come in clear, blue, or white colors. They are designed for single use and should be properly disposed of after each use to maintain hygiene standards and prevent cross-contamination. Their environmental impact is a consideration, as PVC is a plastic that can take a long time to degrade.
