Our exam grade powder-free nitrile gloves are made from a synthetic polymer and are accelerator-free. The gloves do not contain any protein so they are less likely to cause skin irritation or allergic reaction. They are extremely resistant to punctures and tears; they are also resistant to chemicals. Nitrile gloves don easily and provide the wearer with enhanced tactile sensitivity. The nitrile material reacts to your body temperature and conforms to the shape of your hand making them flexible and exceptionally snug. Our nitrile gloves are also textured to provide a better grip on instruments. We offer medical grade nitrile gloves in colors blue and black.

What is Accelerator Free?

Type IV Reactions: Accelerators

Allergic reactions to synthetic gloves became apparent as non-latex glove use became more prevalent. In some cases, reactions continued even after latex use was discontinued. It was discovered that chemical additives, called accelerators, which are necessary in the manufacturing of synthetic gloves, could cause some types of allergic reactions.

Most elastomeric gloves contain accelerators. Accelerators are used in natural rubber latex, nitrile and neoprene gloves to promote cross linking and polymer formation to make stronger, more resilient gloves. The type of allergic reaction to accelerators is called a Type IV reaction, and is characterized by severe contact dermatitis that may resemble a poison oak reaction. This is a localized reaction that only occurs in areas where the glove touched the skin and may appear much later, after the glove has been removed.
