How to avoid inferior medical rubber examination gloves
Recently, a netizen revealed on Weibo that "inferior rubber gloves can cause cancer", stating that inferior rubber gloves are mainly processed from recycled rubber and the raw materials are mainly recycled industrial rubber. Long term use may lead to cancer.
At present, there are many types of cleaning gloves on the market, with different prices and significant differences in quality. Due to their low price, many people choose inferior gloves, causing itching and even redness in the back of their palms. I found that many rubber gloves in the retail market do not have consumer specifications on their packaging, and the packaging is simple and easy to open. You can smell a pungent rubber smell, it feels rough to the touch, and there are some powdery things, making your hands a bit sticky. It can be understood that these inferior rubber gloves can be consumed by industrial rubber. Industrial rubber, especially some returned waste rubber, comes into contact with pesticides, paint, and even is used in hospitals. All of these can be recycled, processed, and flowed back into the market. They are used as raw materials for manufacturing rubber gloves.
The molecular weight of inferior industrial rubber is relatively small. These small molecules are prone to volatilization when heated, causing rubber gloves to become soft. This volatile and harmless substance will have a huge impact on the liver, kidneys, and blood debris of the human body. It has a significant destructive effect on the human body, especially when the returned industrial rubber contains heavy metals that may cause cancer. If rubber gloves are worn without contact with heat sources, will these reactions occur if the gloves are not heated? When we wear rubber gloves to do housework, we tend to sweat easily. The harmless substances outside the gloves will evaporate into the human body when heated, which is also very harmful to the human body.
Therefore, when choosing cleaning gloves, citizens should choose brands that have passed relevant qualification certifications. At present, the main cleaning gloves on the market are latex gloves, nitrile gloves, PVC gloves, and PE gloves. Among them, nitrile gloves are very comfortable
(1) Easy to wear and convenient for hand care;
(2) Durable: excellent elasticity and high stretchability;
(3) Hands on operation: sensitive operation, easy to use;
(4) Safety: The advantages of no allergens and single-sided protection have gained market recognition.
Therefore, when choosing cleaning gloves, consumers should not be tempted by cheapness and should purchase cheap gloves instead. When choosing gloves, you can use the method of "looking, smelling, and touching" to stop distinguishing. High quality cleaning gloves look better than ordinary gloves, with fewer impurities and less odor. High quality gloves will have relevant testing standards. Consumers must pay attention to differences when stopping purchases.
